The rage within the woman skyrocketed into an irrepressible fit. Unable to contain herself, she picked-up the clay jug off the ground and, with all her might, threw it at the burly man as he walked away. It was a direct hit. The jug shattered into pieces over the back of his head and he fell to the ground, unconscious and bleeding.
女人怒火中烧,终于抑制不住怒气发作起来。她捡起地上的陶壶,用尽全力掷向那个男人。陶壶直接命中了男人的头部,碎成一片一片,男人也倒地昏迷流血不止。

As the woman’s rage subsided, she realized the magnitude of what she had done and began to cry. She used a payphone to call 911 and report the incident. An ambulance and two police cars arrived at the scene moments later. As the EMTs strapped the burly man into a stretcher, the police handcuffed his arms and legs to the stretcher. Then one of the police officers walked over to the woman, who was still crying, and said, “The city owes you a big‘thank you.’ That man has been on our most wanted list for over a year now. He is a primary suspect in multiple murder cases and violent robberies.”
女人怒气平息了,同时也意识到自己犯了一个多么大的错,于是哭了起来。她用公用电话叫了911,报告了这起事故。不久,一辆救护车和两个警察来到现场。救护车把男人抬上了担架,同时警察也拷上了那名男子的手脚。然后其中一个警察走到哭泣的女人身边说:“这个城市欠你一声谢谢。”那个男人是一年多来我们最想抓到的罪犯。他犯了很多抢劫杀人的勾当。

The moral of the story is that we simply don’t know. We want to believe that if we completely rid ourselves of our inner darkness then we will always make the right choices, and be of service to ourselves and those around us. But life isn’t so linear and predicable. Sometimes our darkness inadvertently leads us to do things that impact the world in a positive way, just as our unconditional love sometimes forces us to overlook the criminal standing before us.
这个故事的寓意是我们无法简单得知的。我们总是愿意相信当我们完全摆脱内心的黑暗后我们能做出对的选择,对我们自己和身边的人都有好处。但是生活并不是这么线性及可预测的。有时我们内心的黑暗会毫无预警地指引我们去做一些影响世界的积极的事,就像我们无条件的爱时常会让我们忽略那些发生在我们面前的罪恶。
