The traveler left rejoicing in his good fortune. He knew the stone was worth enough to give him security for a lifetime. But, a few days later, he came back to return the stone to the wise woman.
"I've been thinking," he said.
“我一直在想,”他说
"I know how valuable this stone is, but I give it back in the hope that you can give me something even more precious. Give me what you have within you that enabled you to give me this stone."
“我知道这宝石的价值,但是现在我把它还给你,希望能够得到更珍贵的东西。请告诉我是什么令你毫不留恋地给了我这块宝石,请赋予我这般宽广与淡定。”
Sometimes it's not the wealth you have but what's inside you that others need.

Sometimes it's not the wealth you have but what's inside you that others need.
有时候,珍贵的不是外在的财富,而是植埋于心的容纳。
