The Dream
梦 想
Many of lifes failures are people who did not realize how close they were to
success when they gave up.
Thomas Edison
He gently opened his eyes and the warm sun beat upon his face. He
lay among the soft caress of the grass and a gentle wind embraced him.
His father sat underneath a tree a few feet away beside the babbling
brook.
You are awake, his father smiled.
I fell asleep, Dad.
You did, my son.
I had a dream, Dad.
His father rose and sat beside him. Do you want to tell me about
it?
It was so real. I dreamt of missiles falling from the sky and little
kids, even younger than I, getting killed and maimed. The world was
in a bad state. Millions were poor, Dad, not even with enough to eat.
There were homeless people. There were huge storms and hurricanes
and all types of disasters happening. People were fighting all of the
time over land, possessions, oil and money. Rain forests were dying and
animals of all types were in danger. The earth was actually heating up!
I dreamt of growing up in this world and I was having happy times and
sad times. And I lived a life, Dad. I did! I had a wife and kids and it was
crazily fast, you know. Everything went so quickly. And I felt so much.
I was scared and full of joy, and there was fear and hope. And so many
times I felt helpless. And most of the time I felt so lonely. Worst of all,
Dad, I didnt know where you were. I knew you were there somewhere
and I kept calling out for you. In fact, sometimes I gave up hope and
told myself that you didnt exist at all. But deep down I had a feeling
you were somewhere. As I grew older, I stopped searching for you out
there and started looking within. It was really strange that I felt you
were a part of me, Dad, just as I was a part of you. It was full of you
and then I just woke up!
His father looked at him with love in his wise eyes. Thats some
dream, son!
How long was I asleep, Dad?
Mmmmmm perhaps 5 minutes...
Wow! All of that in 5 minutes?
The son looked knowingly at his dad for a while.
Dad?
Yes, my son?
Did you know I was dreaming?
Why yes, of course.
The son reflected on this for a moment. So, Dad, during the bad
parts of the dream did you know I was suffering?
My son, you may have appeared to be suffering in the dream but
were always perfectly safe with me here.
You could have woken me.
I could, but I didnt. It would have been a little frightening for you
that way. You gently came out of the dream yourself. You choose to
enter the dream state. It is best if you choose to exit.
生活中的许多失败是因为人们在离成功只有一步之遥的时候放弃了。
托马斯爱迪生
他慢慢睁开眼睛，暖暖的阳光在脸上跳跃着。他在青草的爱抚和微
风的拥抱中躺着。他的父亲就在几英尺远的树下坐着，旁边是潺潺的小
溪。
父亲微笑着说：你醒了。
爸爸，我睡着了。
是的，儿子。
爸爸，我还做梦了。
父亲站起来，坐到他的身旁，问道：那你想告诉我吗？
这个梦太真实了。我梦见导弹从天而降，小孩子被杀或受伤，有
的比我还小呢。世界一片混乱。有数百万穷人和无家可归的人，爸爸，
他们连吃的都不够。暴雨、飓风和各种各样的灾难都在发生。人们为了
土地、财物、石油和金钱斗来斗去。雨林濒临毁灭，各种动物处在危险
中。地球真的着火了！我梦见自己在这样的世界里长大，度过了美好的
时光和悲伤的时刻。我有了自己的生活，真的！我有妻子和孩子，您知
道，时间像疯了一样转
眼即逝。一切过得这
么快。我有许多感受，
害怕、快乐、恐惧和希
望。大部分时候我感受
到了无助和孤独。爸
爸，最惨的是，我不知
道您在哪里。我知道您
就在某个地方，我一直
大声喊着您。实际上，
我有时候都放弃了，告
诉自己您根本就不存
在。但在内心深处我感
觉到您就在某处。当我
慢慢变老的时候，我不再到处找您，我开始在心里寻找您。奇怪的是，
我居然觉得您就是我的一部分，爸爸，就像我是您的一部分一样，心里
面满满的都是您，然后我就醒了。
父亲深情地看着他：儿子，这才叫梦！
爸爸，我睡了多长时间？
嗯??可能5分钟??
哇！5分钟内发生了那么多的事情？
儿子若有所思地看了父亲一会儿。
爸爸？
怎么了，儿子？
您知道我在做梦吗？
当然了。
儿子想了会儿，问道：那么，爸爸，我在做噩梦的时候，您知道
我很痛苦吗？
儿子，梦里面你可能看起来很痛苦，但在我身边你绝对安全。
你可以叫醒我的。
没错，但是我没有那样做。如果我叫醒你，你反而会觉得害怕。
最后你还是自己慢慢走出了梦境。你自己选择了进入梦境，那么，如果
你能自己选择走出梦境，这样最好了。
