　　Near China's northern borders lived a man well versed in the practices of Taoism. His horse, for no reason at all, got into the territory of the northern tribes. Everyone commiserated with him.

　　"Perhaps this will soon turn out to be a blessing," said his father.

　　After a few months, his animal came back, leading a fine horse from the north. Everyone congratulated him.

　　"Perhaps this will soon turn out to be a cause of misfortune," said his father.

　　Since he was well-off and kept good horses his son became fond of riding and eventually broke his thigh bone falling from a horse. Everyone commiserated with him.

　　"Perhaps this will soon turn out to be a blessing," said his father.

　　One year later, the northern tribes started a big invasion of the border regions. All able-bodied young men took up arms and fought against the invaders, and as a result, around the border nine out of ten men died. This man's son did not join in the fighting because he was crippled and so both the boy and his father survived.

　　According to legend, there was a kind of birds called "dais" (swallow) on the East China Sea.

　　The Yidais were slow in reaction. They could not fly very high and seemed clumsy andincapable1.

　　But when they moved about, they always moved in groups, depended on one another for survival, and flew and landed together.

　　When they advanced, no one dared to advance rashly. When they retreated, no one dared to fall behind at will. When they fed, no one dared to scramble2 to be the first. All their activities were orderly.

　　When they went into action,万 dais always acted uniformly without any disorder3. They depended upon the collective efforts to avoid any harm from the outside world.

　　传说，东海上有一种叫做“意怠”的鸟。

　　意怠反应比较迟钝，不能高飞，似乎笨拙无能。

　　但是，它们行动的时候，总是成群结队，相依为命，一起飞翔，一起降落。

　　它们前进的时候，没有一只敢擅自冒进;后退的时候，没有一只敢随便掉队;吃食的时候，也没有一只敢抢先。一切活动，都很有秩序。

　　意怠行动起来总是这样一致而不散乱，它们就是靠着集体的力量来避免外界对自己的伤害。
