The meaning of stone

The Meaning of Stone was written by Saint Exupé ry of France.

Those children are playing. They changed the arrangement of the stones and said, "This is a March, and that is cattle and sheep." However, passers-by only see stones and don't understand the wealth in children's hearts.

Similarly, people who enjoy the dawn will warm up in the first light. The man who walked to the well was thirsty and lifted the heavy bucket to the well. Thirst makes his steps, his arms and his eyes full of meaning, just like a poem. Some people don't gain faith through hard work, and happiness will not find them.

I noticed the man, too. He listened to the music but didn't pay attention. He asked someone to carry him in a sedan chair instead of walking to listen.

No one climbed the hillside, and no one enjoyed the beautiful scenery. But when people are carried to the top of the mountain, what you see is nothing but plain scenery. How do you give it real meaning?

A person who is deeply satisfied with the present situation will certainly be able to enjoy it calmly after his efforts-every step he takes is to adjust the mountains and rivers and level the gravel road in the village.

The scenery comes from his mind, and the happiness he feels is also the happiness that children feel-he arranges stones and builds cities, and his wishes are enough. Which child will be happy to see a pile of stones turned into a landscape without his own efforts?

If I don't practice, there will be no adventure; If I don't work hard, everything is meaningless.

What I want to say is that you have no right not to work hard. Because if you don't do this, you have to do it-you have to grow.
