Look at What You Find Along the Way

If you have ever been discouraged because of failure, please read on.For often, achieving what you set out to do is not the important thing. Let me explain.

Two brothers decided to dig a deep hole behind their house. As they were working, a couple of older boys stopped by to watch.

“What are you doing?” asked one of the visitors.

“We plan to dig a hole all the way through the earth!” one of the brothers volunteered excitedly·

The older boys began to laugh, telling the younger ones that digging a hole all the way through the earth was impossible·

After a long silence, one of the diggers picked up a jar full of spiders, worms and a wide assortment of insects. He removed the lid and showed the wonderful contents to the scoffing visitors.

Then he said quietly and confidently, “Even if we don’t dig all the way through the earth, look what we found along the way!”

Their goal was far too ambitious, but it did cause them to dig. And that is what a goal is for — to cause us to move in the direction we have chosen; in other words, to set us to digging!

But not every goal will be fully achieved. Not every job will end successfully. Not every relationship will endure. Not every hope will come to pass. Not every love will last. Not everyendeavor7 will be completed. Not every dream will be realized.

But when you fall short of your aim, perhaps you can say, “Yes, but look at what I found along the way!Look at the wonderful things which have come into my life because I tried to do something!”

It is in the digging that life is lived. And I believe it is joy in the journey, in the end, that truly matters.

思：

完成某件事情并不是最重要的，重要的是享受过程。在实现过程的途中我们会遇到很多有趣的东西～会收获很多。

想要将地球挖一个洞，梦想何其远大，目标何其宏伟。但至少他们都勇敢的朝着目标去做了，虽然最后我们知道他们不可能将地球挖出一个洞，不可能实现他们的目标，但是在实现目标的这个过程中，他们收获了乐趣，收获了之前人生中没有遇见过的很多美妙的东西。所以，在这样一个挖掘的过程中，最初的目标，最终所要实现的结果便已然显得不再那么重要了。而享受过程，享受过程带给你的喜悦、带给你的收获，便也已然比达到目标，实现梦想更有趣更惊喜也更重要。

生命正如挖掘的过程，我们不要太过在意最后的结局，像掘地兄弟一样好好享受挖掘的乐趣就好，好好享受生命的旅程，享受生命带给我们的惊喜，热情且欣喜的过好每一天，这样，它的意义远远大于最后目标的实现❤️❤️❤️
