That year, I graduated from the university. In order to stay in the southern city, I tried very hard to find a job. At that time my major was architectural design and found several architectural design institutes successfully. But they said to me that don't need talents of architectural design any more, but I could be a security waiting for chances. Upon hearing that, I angrily rejected the company. During that period I was very depressed and went back to my hometown, where was located in a small village at the foot of the mountain. That day the weather was very bad, and just as soon as I got home there was a thunderstorm. My father asked me why I came back, so I told my frustrating experience to him. Instead of comforting me, my father replied with a smile: "Like you, there are many people living in the world with such a poor mentality." Then we started to chat casually. Soon the thunderstorm stopped, and my father said there were many mushrooms and agarics on the mountain and we could pick them together to make mushroom soups. I was glad at first, but when we climbed up to the mountain, we found there were a lot of people picking up the mushrooms. My father told me that mushrooms here were very famous and we arrived there later than others. I became very disappointed, but my father suggested me to pick some wild fruits, which were also known as the green food! My father and I picked a full sack of wild fruits, and at that time I found that people on the mountain had gone downhill. My father said, “With your help today, we picked so many wild fruits that we couldn’t eat up them, but these fresh wild fuits will be bad if we put them aside for a few day. let's carry some of them to town at the foot of the mountain and sold them to the fruit shop. To my surprise, there were sold at a good price. Then my father asked me to wait for him in the market, and I nodded. After a while, my father came back with a full bag of things and we went home happily. Unexpectedly, my father cooked a pot of mushroom soup, which made me confused. “I used the money that we sold wild fruits to buy these mushrooms. But maybe you don't know that these mushrooms aren’t artificially planted, instead they grow naturally after the rain on the mountain. When a lot of people grab something, we may not get it smoothly, so sometimes we have to walk some curve roads. I understood my father’s purpose immediately. Later, I went to that company and became the security. Finally I found a chance to let the lead find my talents. At that time the lead was very astonished to ask me, “You are a talented person, but how are you willing to be an ordinary security? “I told him that if I didn't come to the company to be a security, he wouldn’t discover my talent! It is my father that taught me to learn how to let the mushrooms turn a corner.
