我们需要寻找快乐吗?
A big dog saw a puppy chasing its tail and asked:
– Why are you chasing your tail that way?
– I have studied philosophy and solved the problem of the universe, which no other dog before me had ever solved, – the puppy answered, – and I have found out that the best thing for a dog in life – is happiness, and that my happiness is in my tail. That is why I am chasing it, and when I catch it – I will reach happiness.
– Son, – the dog said, – in my young days I was also interested in the questions of the universe. I also thought that the happiness is in the tail and in the beginning I was also chasing it. But later I have noticed that anywhere I go and whatever I do, the tail was following behind me. And then I understood that I don’t need to chase it.
一只大狗看见一只小狗在追它的尾巴,
问:“你为什么这样追你的尾巴?”
“我研究过哲学,并解决了宇宙的问题,这是我之前从未有过狗解决这个问题”,小狗回答说,“我发现狗生活中最好的东西就是快乐,我的快乐就在我的尾巴上。这就是为什么我追逐它,当我抓住它-我就抓住了幸福快乐。”
“孩子”大狗说,“在我年轻的时候,我对宇宙的问题也很感兴趣。我还以为幸福就在尾巴上,一开始我也在追它。但后来我注意到无论我去哪里,无论我做什么,尾巴都跟着我。然后我明白我不需要去追它了。”
