THE OLD FARMER - Moral Story Of The Day. There was a successful old farmer who grew tomatoes for many years. One day, his grandson told him. "Grandfather, I want to achieve great things in life and make all of my dreams come true. What are the things I should avoid?" The farmer paused for a moment and said. "First of all, you should avoid procrastination. Secondly, you should never be afraid to fall. Thirdly, don't ever fool yourself. But the most important of them all, I won't tell you yet" The boy asked. "Why grandfather?" The farmer responded. "I will tell you at the appropriate time" One week later, the farmer took his grandson to his tomato field for the first time. He showed him a large portion of land where he grew some of his tomatoes. When the farmer saw how amazed the little boy was, he asked him. "How do you see them?" The boy replied. "They look very healthy. Their stems are solid, their leaves are green and the

#22 一位癌症病人对保险从业人员的真情告白 - 朱梁惠美

朱梁惠美，马来西亚华人圈内知名心理医生。从事临床心理咨询工作11年。因为难得的一点保险观念，许多年前就买过“36种疾病保险”；但是也因为对保险缺乏更多的正确理解，才导致保而不足，因为直到罹患癌症前，她一直笃定罹患癌症是别人的事情，与自己毫不相干；因为罹患癌症，对保险有了更深刻理解；当不菲的医疗费用让她不能选择更好的治疗方案，必须面对捉襟见肘的日常生活开销时，她终于发出了悔不该当初的感慨。     在与癌症抗争的同时，痛彻心骨的懊悔提升了她的社会责任感，于是，她四处公开演说，向广大消费者倾诉她的经历，希望可以唤起人们对保险的正确认识。以下是她在一些演讲会上的演讲片段：     那天，在诊所里，医生用扫描仪在我的乳房来回检查，仔细地研究荧光屏看到的影像。然后面色凝重地对我说：“你要马上去看外科，我有理由相信你身上长的是恶性肿瘤，也就是癌症。”     “什么？你是说乳……癌？Cancer？黄医生，你是说我得了乳癌？”我的思绪有点接不上。     直到完成乳房扫描、影像及细胞学检查，我的信心开始动摇了。从图像上我已经看到癌细胞正在我体内扩散，我的生命行将结束。我将从一个照顾他人心灵的心理医生，变成一个癌症患者，痛苦无助犹如一下子从天堂跌到地狱。     花了几天时间，在极度抗拒和忐忑不安中，安排了肿瘤切除手术。一切都按部就班地进行着，我就像行尸走肉般任由医生摆布，接受手术及术后治疗。前来探访的亲朋好友不断。     “你有保险吗？”“是那种36种疾病的保险吗？”时常有人小心翼翼地询问，他们为我担心大笔的治疗费用。     我感激大家的关心，也暗自庆幸，甚至有点侥幸在发现癌症的9年前就买了那样一份保险。12年前，当我决定购买人生第一份保险时，就是因为意识到，意外随时可以发生在任何人身上。所以，大学刚毕业，领了第一份薪水后就迫不及待地买了一份保险。因为我要的是一份保障。很多人拿到薪水会先准备车子、房子、化妆品等物质享受，但我觉得让自己拥有保障才最重要。现在看来我的认识没错，但是，即使这样，当我购买第一份保险的时候，我心里还是笃定罹患癌症是别人的事情，与我毫不相干。     然而，正是这种绝大多数人都会有的侥幸心里驱使的“笃定”，让我永无止境地遗憾于没有再做加保，以致于在癌症治疗过程中不仅要承受癌痛的折磨，同时还要承受经济的拮据。每当夜深人静，身体开始疼痛难忍时，就会产生恐惧，
