　　Once a circle missed a wedge(楔子). The circle wanted to be whole, so it went around looking for its missing piece. It was incomplete and 1 could roll only very slowly, while rolling, it 2 the flowers along the way, chatted with worms and enjoyed the 3 .

　　One day the circle found a piece that fit 4 . It was so happy. Now it could be 5 with nothing missing. It fixed the missing piece in itself and began to roll. 6 it was a perfect circle, it could roll very fast, too fast to 7 the flowers or talk to the worms. When it realized how 8 the world seemed when it rolled so quickly, it stopped, 9 its found piece by the side of the road and rolled slowly away.

　　The lesson of the story, I 10 , was that in some strange I 11 we are more whole when we are missing something. The man who has everything is 12 a poor man. He will never know what it feels like to desire, to hope, to nourish(滋养) his 13 with the dream of something 14 .

　　When we accept that 15 is part of human being, and when we can continue rolling 16 life and appreciate it, we will have achieved a wholeness that others can only 17 to. If we are brave enough to love, strong enough to forgive, 18 enough to share in another's happiness, and wise enough to know 19 is enough love to go around for us all, then we can achieve a fulfillment that 20 living creature will ever know.

Allen: I’ve never been a big fan of the bears, especially the vacation show. On my last trip to Disneyland(1999) we passed it by, because we didn’t want to spend the time on something we didn’t really enjoy. If we’d known it would be closed by our next visit, I’m sure we would have watched it one more time. I was just making the point that it wasn’t until Disney announced the closing that this feeling suddenly sprang(弹跳) up for the Country Bear show at Disneyland.

But I think the idea of keeping some attractions open forever regardless of the number of visitors it gets is a mistake. We all have great memories of the Bears, but clearly very few kids today (or I should say families today) are making those same memories from this show. That may be a sad fact, but it’s a fact. For whatever reason, the show doesn’t pull in the numbers. Isn’t it right to use the Country Bear space to bring in more popular attraction so that more kids today can make those magic memories of an attraction they like? Otherwise aren’t we just telling kids today that they “have to” make great memories of the Bears, when it’s obvious that the kids themselves are not enjoying the Bears like we did.

Roger: I am very disappointed that they have decided to retire the Country Bear Playhouse. I remember going to the show as a child, and still enjoyed it as a teenager, and now young adult. It is true that there aren’t a lot of shows left at DL and with this one closing even less. Being at DL does require a lot of walking, and it is nice to have a few attraction that are a place to sit and enjoy a good show. I understand that DL has to develop, but there has to be some history to the Disneyland that Walt Disney first designed. There should be some parts of DL that just never go away and this is one of them. By the time I have children it looks like there won’t be any attractions that I can say. I went to as a child at the rate they are going.

Now the Bears are leaving. What I want to say is: stop trying to compete with everyone! DL is the best, because of attractions like the Country-Bears. If DL insists on destroying all of its magic to make way for the latest, well, then it might as well be just another theme park.
