3.My son David,who was 3.5years old,taught me a beautiful lesson today.After we finished playing with the beads (珠子),David slowly picked up each bead,looking at it as if it were made of chocolate and then put it into the box they were stored in.With over a hundred beads to go,I was getting impatient."Why could he not pick up 10in one go and put them in?My morning was going to be ruined today!"But then it hit me like a brick.I noticed that he did this with as much interest as he had while we were playing.The boy was enjoying the whole process.For him the fun was in the game itself as well as in the process of properly packing up and cleaning up.It was not just about his turn or the fun part.Every bit was as fun as the other.
I thought of myself as a kid when we would go out to play cricket (板球).If I was not batting or bowling (击球或掷球),I was unhappy as I impatiently waited for my turn to do so.As a result,I was unhappy while waiting for my turn and only happy for the few moments I either batted or bowled.Only the process of doing something I combined with happiness made me cheerful.The rest of the time I was waiting for my run in the future or recalling great bowling from the past.
Looking at how peacefully my son was putting beads into the box taught me that the process is the goal.The joy of journey is not in getting there but in every step of it.
