A long time ago, there was a huge apple tree. A little boy loved to come and play around it every day. He climbed to the tree top, ate the apples, took a nap under the shadow… He loved the tree and the tree loved to play with him.
Time went by…The little boy had grown up and he no longer played around the tree.
One day, the boy came back to the tree and looked sad. “Come and play with me,” the tree asked the boy.
“I am no longer a kid, I don’t’ play around trees anymore.” The boy replied, “I want toys. I need money to buy them.” “Sorry, but I don’t have money…but you can pick all my apples and sell them. So, you will have money.” The boy was so excited. He picked all the apples on the tree and left happily. The boy didn’t come back after he picked the apples. The tree was sad.
One day, the boy returned and the tree was so excited. “Come and play with me.” The tree said. “I don’t have time to play. I have to work for my family. We need a house for shelter. Can you help me?” “Sorry, but I don’t’ have a house. But you can cut off my branches to build your house.” So the boy cut all the branches of the tree and left happily.
The tree was glad to see him happy but the boy didn’t appear since then. The tree was again lonely and sad. One hot summer day, the boy returned and the tree was delighted. “Come and play with me!” the tree said.
“I am sad and getting old. I want to go sailing to relax myself. Can you give me a boat?” “Use my trunk to build the boat. You can sail and be happy.” So the boy cut the tree trunk to make a boat. He went sailing and did not show up for a long time.
Finally, the boy returned after he left for so many years. “Sorry, my boy. But I don’t’ have anything for you anymore. No more apples for you.” the tree said. “ I don’t have teeth to bite.” The boy replied. “ No more trunk for you to climb on.” “I am too old for that now.” the boy said. “I really want to give you something…the only thing left is my dying roots.” The tree said with tears. “I don’t’ need much now, just a place to rest. I am tired after all these years.” The boy replied. “Good! Old tree roots are the best place to lean on and rest. Come here, please sit down with me and have a rest.” The boy sat down and the tree was glad and smiled with tears…
This is a story of everyone. The tree is our parent. When we were young, we loved to play with Mom and Dad… When we grow up, we leave them, and only come to them when we need something or when we are in trouble. No matter what, parents will always be there and give everything they could to make you happy. You may think that the boy is cruel to the tree but that's how all of us are treating our parents.

“我想你就是我一直在等的那一个,”失落的一角说,“或许我就是你失落的一角。”
“但是我什么也不缺啊,”大圆满说,“我身上没有适合你的地方。”
“真遗憾,”失落的一角说道,“我真希望我能跟你一起滚动……”
“你不能跟我一起滚动的,”大圆满说,“但是,你或许可以自己滚动。”
“我自己?失落的一角不能靠自己滚动的。”
“你试过吗?”大圆满问。
“但是我有棱有角,”失落的一角说道,“我的形状注定我滚动不了。”
“棱角会磨掉,”大圆满说,“形状也会改变。不管怎样,我必须说再见了。或许我们将来会再见面……”
说完,它走了。
当然,最后失落的一角就是靠自己慢慢地滚动,抹掉棱角,成了圆圆。
好好看的书噢!

提醒自己,任何事都要自己去面对,不能老是要等待他人的援助。只要肯相信自己,踏出最艰难的一步,不怕艰苦,继续往前走,会发现成功就在不远处。。。

老公不怎么喜欢看中文字,又懒惰看动画,一直忙着手上的工作,所以,我口述了《苹果树》的故事给他听。他刚听完时,并没有多大的反应。
后来,他却停下了手上的工作,跑来告诉我,他很想立刻回家。他眼眶湿湿的,想打电话回家,父母却已经入睡。
从小,我们就被灌输“孝顺父母很重要”;长大后,我们也了解“孝顺父母不能等”。可是,总觉得自己为父母做得太少了,根本不足够。往往,父母总会拒绝我们的好意,要我们多为自己的将来打算。
我俩谈了很久,两人都没心情了,很想家。。。:nangis:
为了使心情好转,我们三更半夜到7-11买冰淇淋吃。。。边吃边决定,我俩下星期就回家。

读了您的梦话以后,让我想起了公公。小时候,公公带我出外喝茶前,总是会站在梳妆台前往头发上抹发蜡,把头发梳得服服贴贴的。当我长大后,每每带着坐轮椅的公公出门喝茶前,我也会习惯性的帮他把头发梳整齐。我还记得每次梳好头发,他总会对我会心一笑。那眼神,让我怀念至今。可惜,我以后再也没机会摸摸他的头了......今晚,我再也不想压抑自己对他的思念,我好想放声大哭!老黄 wrote:昨晚,苹果树在我梦里如是说:
孩子!
當你還很小的時候,
我花了很多時間,
教你慢慢用湯匙,用筷子吃東西;
教你系鞋帶,扣口子,溜滑梯;
教你穿衣服,梳頭發,擤鼻涕。
這些和你在一起的點點滴滴,
是多麽的令我懷念不已,
所以,當我想不起來,接不上話時,
請給我一點時間,等我一下 ,
讓我再想一想……
極可能最後連要說什麽,
我也一併忘記。
孩子!
你忘記我們練習了好幾百回,
才學會的第一首娃娃歌嗎?
是否還記得每天總要我絞盡腦汁
去回答不知道從哪里冒出來的“爲什麽”嗎?
所以,當我重復又重復說著老掉牙的故事,
哼著我孩提時代的兒歌時
體諒我,
讓我繼續沈醉在這些回憶中吧!
希望你,也能陪著我閒話家常吧!
孩子!
現在我常忘了扣口子,系鞋帶。
吃飯時,會弄髒衣服,
梳頭發時手還會不停的抖,
不要催促我,
要對我多一點耐心和溫柔,
只要有你在一起,
就會有很多的溫暖湧上心頭。
孩子!
如今,我的腳站也站不穩,走也走不動,
所以,
請你緊緊的握著我的手,
陪著我,慢慢的。
就像當年一樣,
我帶著你一步一步地走。
