363. Don't Abandon Your Dream.

There were once 2 brothers who lived on the 80th level. On coming home one day, they realized to their dismay that the lifts were not working and that they had to climb the stairs home.  After struggling to the 20th level, panting and tired, they decided to abandon their bags and come back for them the next day. They left their bags then and climbed on. When they had struggled to the 40th level, the younger brother started to grumble and they began to quarrel. They continued to climb the flights of steps, quarreling all the way to the 60th floor.  They then realized that they have only 20 levels more to climb and decided to stop quarreling and continue climbing in peace. They silently climbed on and reached their home at long last. Each stood calmly before the door and waited for the other to open the door.  And then they realized that the key was in their bags which were left on the 20th floor. This story is a reflection on our life...many of us live under the expectations of our parents, teachers and friends when young. We seldom get to do the things that we really love and are under so much pressure and stress that by the age of 20, we get tired and decided to dump this load.  Being free of the stress and pressure, we work enthusiastically and dream ambitious wishes.  But by the time we reach 40 years old, we start to lose our vision and dreams. We began to feel unsatisfied and start to complain and criticize. We live a miserable life as we are never satisfied.  Reaching 60, we realize that we have little left for complaining anymore, and we begin to walk the final episode in peace and calmness.  We think that there is nothing left to disappoint us, only to realize that we could not rest in peace because we have an unfulfilled dream ...... a dream we abandoned 60 years ago.  So what is your dream? Follow your dreams, so that you will not live with regrets. 不要放弃梦想 从前，有一对儿住在80层楼上的兄弟，一天回家时，十分沮丧的发现电梯坏了，他们不得不爬楼梯回家。 疲惫不堪并气喘吁吁的他们一路费劲挣扎着到达20层后，哥俩儿决定把他们的行囊丢在这层楼上，等第二天回来再取。留下袋子之后，他俩继续往上爬。 当他们挣扎到了40层时，弟弟开始发牢骚，接着哥俩儿就开始争吵，就这么一路争吵着啊就到60层了。 这时侯他们意识到他们只剩下20几层就到家了，于是决定不吵了，静静的接着爬吧。他们默默地往上爬，最后终于到家了。两人都平静的站在家门前，等着对方开门儿。 这时他们才突然想起来，家门儿钥匙在他们的行囊里，而袋子被他俩丢在20层了。  这个故事是我们人生历程的一个映射。我们中的很多人年轻的时候都是生活在父母，老师和朋友们的期望下，承受了太多的来自社会、他人施加的以及自己精神心理上的压力，我们很少有机会能够去做自己真正热爱的事情，到20岁的时候，我们感到累了，决心抛掉这些负重。 从压力中得到释放的我们满腔热情的投入到工作，并开始雄心勃勃的憧憬未来。 但当我们步入40岁，我们开始迷茫，丢失了梦想。我们变得越来越不满足，于是开始抱怨指责和批评。由于我们总是不知足，生活变得痛苦不堪。 当进入60岁，我们发现已经没剩多少时光可以浪费在抱怨上了，于是我们决定在平静与安宁中走完人生最后一程。 到了这个年纪，我们以为已经没有什么事可以再让我们失望了，唯有意识到有一件事会让我们无法瞑目，那就是，还有一个未了的梦想......那个在60年前被我们放弃了的梦想。 那么，你的梦想是什么？追逐你的梦想吧，这样你才不会抱憾终生。
