More often than not, we have to make cardinal decisions indepentently. This moment is very important for everyone to go through. In order to make a decision that we will not regret, we should bear these two principles in mind: thinking before acting, and never missing any opportunities that arise. On one hand, we should have an apparent, objective judgment about ourselves while maintaining a clear idea about the world around us. On the other hand, we should also think about opportunity. Many people may not quite agree with this and think that opportunity is so rare that only the luckiest people come across it. However, opportunity is open to everyone and one should make good use of it when confronted with it. One should take advantage of it just like the proverb states: “Opportunities are only from the prepared minds.” So when one is faced with choices the next time, remember that using the mind and taking advantage of good opportunities
will pave the way to success. 译文：从这幅画中我们可以看到，一个人正站在叉路岐途之前，等待他的是要决定究竟走哪条路。人生中我们经常会面临这样的选择。我们还时常必须独立做出重大决定。这是我们每个人都要经历的重要
