抉 择
在一个村庄里，住着一位睿智的老人，村里有什么疑难问题都来向他请教。 有一天聪明又调皮的孩子，想要故意为难那位老人。他捉了一只小鸟，握在手掌中，跑去问老人：“老爷爷，听说您是最有智慧的人，不过我却不相信。如果您能猜出我手中的鸟是活还是死的，我就相信了。”
老人注视着小孩子狡黠的眼晴，心中有数，如果他回答小鸟是活的，小孩会暗中加劲把小鸟掐死；如果他回答是死的，小孩就会张开双手让小鸟飞走。 老人拍了拍小孩的肩膀笑着说：“这只小鸟的死活，就全看你的了！”
每个人的前途与命运，就像那只小鸟一样，完全掌握在你自己的手中。升学也罢，就业也好，创业亦如此，只要奋发努力，均会成功。 一位哲人说： 人生就是一连串的抉择，每个人的前途与命运，完全掌握在自己手中，只要努力，终会有成。
