That day is a good time to catch molas, and you can catch bass from the early morning of the next day. In the evening, James and his father hang bugs on the hook-Molas' favorite food. James skillfully threw the hook into the calm lake reflected by the sunset.
The moon climbed out gradually, and the silver water rippled quietly ... Suddenly, James's fishing rod suddenly bent, and he immediately realized that it was a big guy. He took a deep breath to calm himself down and began to walk slowly with this big guy. The father didn't say a word, but turned his face to look at his son from time to time, with appreciation and approval in his eyes.
Two hours later, the big guy was finally exhausted by James' walk, and James began to slowly close the hook. The big guy emerged from the water bit by bit. James's eyes were round: Oh, my God, it's 10 kg! This is the biggest fish he has ever seen. James tried his best to suppress his nervousness and excitement and watched his trophy carefully. He found that it was not a Mola, but a big bass!
Father and son looked at each other and looked down at the big fish. On the dark green grass, the big fish struggled to turn its shiny body and its cheeks kept flapping up and down. Father struck a match and looked at his watch. It's ten o'clock in the evening, which is two hours less than the time for bass fishing!
The father looked at the big fish, then at his son and said, "Son, you must put it back in the water."
"Dad!" James shouted.
"You will catch other fish."
"You'll never catch such a big fish again!" The son protested loudly.
James looked around. In the moonlight, there is not an angler or a boat. Of course, no one will know about it. He looked back at his father again.
Father never spoke again. James knew there was no room for discussion. He closed his eyes hard and his brain went blank. He took a deep breath, opened his eyes, bent down, carefully took off the hook from the big fish's mouth, held the heavy, wriggling big fish in his hand and put it into the water with difficulty.
The body of the big fish swished in the water and disappeared. James was very sad.
This was thirty-four years ago. Today, James is a successful architect in new york. His father's cabin is still on the island in the middle of the lake. James often takes his children fishing there.
James really never catches such a big fish again, but this big fish often appears in front of his eyes-when he encounters moral problems, this big fish will appear in front of his eyes.
As his father taught him, the moral problem is just a simple question of right and wrong, but it is difficult to implement, especially when you are faced with great temptation. If no one sees your behavior, can you persist? Do you run a red light or go backwards when time is tight? Will you keep something that doesn't belong to you without anyone knowing it?
Eleven-year-old James and his family live on an island on the lake. Here, the pier in front of the house is a good place to fish. His father is a good fisherman. James doesn't want to miss any chance to fish with his father.
That day is a good time to catch blue gill scarab, and you can catch a bass from the early morning of the next day. In the evening, James and his father hung bugs on the hook-sunfish's favorite food. James skillfully threw the hook to the calm lake illuminated by the sunset.
The moon climbed out gradually, and the silver waves rippled quietly ... Suddenly, James pulled the fishing rod and suddenly bent. He immediately realized that it was a big guy. He took a deep breath to calm himself down and began to walk slowly to the big guy. The father kept quiet, but from time to time he turned to look at his son, which was a look of appreciation and praise.
Two hours later, the big guy finally strolled to exhausted James, and James began to slowly close the hook. This big guy is a little above the water. James' eyes are Deng Yuan: My God, 10 kg is enough! This is the biggest fish he has ever seen. James tried to suppress his nervousness and excitement, and watched his trophy carefully. He found that it was not a Mola, but a big bass!
Father and son stopped for a while on TV, and then looked down at the big fish. On the dark green grass, the fish was forced to turn over its shiny body and its cheeks kept flapping up and down. Father struck a match and looked at his watch. It was ten o'clock at night, two hours before the time allowed for bass fishing!
The father looked at the fish, looked at his son and said, "My child, you must put it back in the water."
"Dad!" James cried.
"You will catch other fish."
"Never catch such a big fish again!" My son protested loudly.
James looked around. In the moonlight, there was not an angler or a boat. Of course, no one would know. He looked back at his father again.
Father didn't speak again. James knew that there was no room for negotiation. He tried to close his eyes and his mind went blank. He took a deep breath, opened his eyes, bent down and carefully took the fish off the hook and put it to his lips. His hand lifted the heavy, still swinging fish and struggled to put it into the water.
The fish's body disappeared one by one in the water. James was very sad.
This happened 34 years ago. Today, James is a successful architect in new york and the owner of his father's lake house on the island. James often goes fishing there with his children.
James has never caught a big fish, but that fish often appears in front of his eyes-when faced with moral problems, this fish will appear in front of his eyes.
Just like the moral problem taught by his father, it is only a simple question of right and wrong, but it is difficult to implement, especially when you are faced with great temptation. If no one sees your behavior, can you stick to it? Won't you run a red light or go backwards in an emergency? You won't have anything for yourself without anyone knowing, will you?
