心怀怨恨

1有一个小男孩梦想着驾船环游世界，他把自己的梦想告诉给父母、老师、同学，告诉他的牧师和朋友们。

然而他们不但不接受和鼓励他去实现自己的梦想，反而取笑他、嘲弄他，轻视他的憧憬。

2“你永远不可能驾船环游世界。

”他的父亲嘲笑道。

“等你长大后，我会在我工作的工厂给你找份工作，你将跟我过一样的日子。

”

3“但我不想跟你一样，我想航行在辽阔的海洋上，见识见识陌生的国家。

”小男孩抗议道。

他父亲只是笑了笑，摇了摇头，对儿子和儿子的梦想没有什么信心。

4在学校里，同学们也拿他开玩笑，以至于他再也不愿和他们交流想法和愿望，而是把这些想法和愿望埋藏在心底，等待着有一天能把它们变成现实。

5在他年少时期，好像全世界都不支持他的想法。

十五年后他长大成人了，他夜以继日地干着两份工作，终于攒够了购买一艘船所需的首付金。

6他看到了报纸上的一则广告并写了回信，在当地港口见了那个船主。

这个年轻人当场买下了那艘船，并立刻付了首付金，签订了买卖合同。

他太高兴了，把这个消息告诉给了所有他认识的人。

他们很惊讶，这样说毫不夸张，但他们还是祝他一切顺利，然而绝不承认自己是错的。

但他并不在乎这些，因为现在他拥有了自己的船。

7第二天，他来到港口，打算让船下水，这时他看见一些官员模样的人正围着他新买的船。

这些人是联邦特工，准备扣押这条船。

卖船的那个人是个骗子和毒贩，这条船在联邦缉毒行动中也将被没收。

8年轻人失去了他一生的积蓄。

他非常震惊！

联邦特工说他们第二天上午要过来没收这条船。

他们离开时对这个年轻人的损失没有表现出一点同情。

当年轻人要离开时，港务长给他一张1200美元的泊船费用账单，费用是先前的船主所欠下的。

9忍无可忍。

年轻人把港务长骂了一通离开了。

过了一会他带了一罐黑色的喷漆回来，把船的标志SERENITY（宁静）用漆盖上。

然后给这条船写上了新名字ILLFEELINGS（怨恨）。

他登上船开始航行出海。

即使他对这条船只能拥有一晚，他也要去航行。

10港务长挥舞着手臂，高喊着暴风雨即将来临，要年轻人停下来。

但是这个年轻人又一次咒骂他，继续向大海的方向驶去。

11果然，航行十英里后，风暴袭击了小船，船被抛来抛去。

年轻人狂乱地驾船返回岸边。

在离港口还有一英里时，他用无线电向港务长发出信号，让他为他泊船做准备。

港务长告诉他不行，他不会让他把船停泊在他的港口。

12“是因为我说过的话吗？

”年轻人绝望地说。

13“不，我从不心怀怨恨。

”港务长说。

“这一点毫无疑问——我从不让‘怨恨’停留！
