I like areas where all the trees and flowers have gone into hiding from the cold breath of winter. You can see little yellow leaves reel in the breeze and although chrysanthemums are sparse, they remain even in the frigid cold of winter to show their defiance.
I love winter. Though she is known for her violence, her haze can create a gloomy blanket, her light is brief, and her nights are endless; I still love her. I like winter because her clarity can make all the people lucid and palpable. Winter in the north; the lonesome and bare tress call letters to the distance, while the beautiful snowflakes thrown in the copious fields soon become the vivacity of the spring .
The cold season allow people realize what is warm. Warm has a largo breast; though she has been avoided and excluded in summer, she also comes to us benevolently in winter. Because warm can bring love, we have a mind to decorate every festal at hand and so many festivals come, in the winter. With the warmth of the fire, we can drink warm tea and wait for our loved ones in the shelter of our warm home.
我喜歡看冬天裡刺骨的寒風所帶來的『萬花紛謝一時稀』的境界,你看柳葉欲枯黃卻還有枝條在風中搖曳,菊花殘落,卻猶剩幾枝抗衡寒徹嚴霜。
我愛冬天,無論它的寒風怎樣猛烈,它的陰霾怎樣愁人,無論它的白晝怎樣短促,它的暗夜怎樣漫長,但仍舊愛它。愛它透明清亮,使人清醒,給人明志。冬天,尤其是在北國,寂寥赤裸的枝條在向遠方呼號,喚起春天的覺醒,蒼茫的田野卻有美麗的飄雪,化為春天的乳汁。
越是寒冷的季節,越是可以體會怎樣纔叫做溫暖。因為溫暖總是在夏天被人們所嫌棄,所排斥,但它依舊心胸寬廣,在冬天,這個人們需要它的季節慷慨地向人們走來,不計前嫌地陪伴我們度過嚴冬。難怪在這個原本寒冷的季節會有這麼多節日出現,因為有溫暖就會有愛,有愛在心中蕩漾就會有心情去裝點每一個即將到來的節日。即使窗外冰凍三尺,大雪紛飛,我們仍然可以在家中守著這份溫暖,端著熱茶,溫馨地等待與家人的團聚。
A boy cares for a little turtle. The turtle often hides its head in its shell to hide from the cold winter. Though the boy does everything he can to force the turtle out of his shell but the turtle refuses to come out.
The boy」s grandpa sees the problem his grandson faces and so he puts the turtle on a warm floor; soon the little turtle sticks out its head, legs, and tail.
When the boy sees the turtle, he becomes very happy. So his grandpa tells to him: whenever you want others to do a something for you, you cannot attack them. You should instead care for them because in this way, they will always be good to you.
This is the power of warmth. She may look soft but when used properly she can prove to be very strong indeed.
有個男孩養了只小烏龜。寒冷的冬天,小烏龜總是把頭藏在龜殼裡,任憑小男孩兒想盡辦法,也無法讓它探出頭來。
後來,男孩的祖父看到了,微笑著幫他把小烏龜放到一個暖爐上面。沒過一會,小烏龜便因溫暖而漸漸地把頭、四肢和尾巴都伸到了殼外。
男孩看到後,高興極了。於是,他的祖父對男孩說:『當你想讓別人按照你的意思去做,去改變時,記住不要采取攻擊的方式,而要給予他關懷和溫暖,即使是已經做出了最壞的打算也是如此。因為這樣的方法往往更有效。』
這就是溫暖的力量,看似柔軟,內力無窮。
