There was a man. He had four sons. He wanted his sons to go and look at a pear tree that was far away.
The first son went in the winter，the second in the spring the third in summer，the youngest son in fall. When they had all gone and come back，he called them together to describe what they had seen.The first son said that the tree was ugly，bent and weak. The second son said no—it was covered with green buds and full of promise. The third son said it was laden with blossoms and they smelt so sweet and looked so beautiful. The last son disagreed with all of them，he said it was ripe and droop with fruit，full of life and fulfillment.
The man then said to his sons that they were all right，because they each had seen but only one season in the tree’s life. He told them that they cannot judge a tree or a person，by only one season，and that the essence of who they are—the pleasure，the joy and love that come from that life—can only be measured at the end，when all the seasons are up.
If you give up when it is winter，you will miss the promise of your spring，the beauty of your summer，the fulfillment of your fall. Don’t let the pain of one season destroy the joy of all the rest.
四季梨樹(shù)
從前有一個(gè)人，他有四個(gè)兒子。他輪番派他們到一個(gè)遙遠(yuǎn)的地方去觀察一棵梨樹(shù)。
他們?nèi)サ募竟?jié)各不相同：大兒子是在寒冷的冬日，二兒子是在溫暖的春天，老三是在炎炎的夏日，最小的兒子是在金色的秋天。他們?nèi)チ?，他們回?lái)了。父親把他們叫到一起，聽(tīng)他們講一下他們的所見(jiàn)所聞。大兒子批評(píng)說(shuō)梨樹(shù)樹(shù)枝彎曲，體弱多病，形象丑陋。二兒子連忙反駁并非如此，相反，梨樹(shù)滿(mǎn)樹(shù)嫩綠的新芽，生機(jī)盎然。老三更說(shuō)滿(mǎn)樹(shù)梨花，競(jìng)相開(kāi)放，那么美，那么香。最小的兒子無(wú)法認(rèn)同所有哥哥的說(shuō)法，他說(shuō)梨樹(shù)上碩果累累，收獲多多，香甜可口，生機(jī)勃勃。
聽(tīng)了兒子們的敘述，父親說(shuō)，他們的說(shuō)法都沒(méi)有錯(cuò)，因?yàn)樗麄兛吹降氖谴髽?shù)生命年輪中四個(gè)季節(jié)里的四個(gè)不同的景象。他告訴他們，看樹(shù)不能看一季，看人不能看一時(shí)，因?yàn)樯谋举|(zhì)是——生命生發(fā)出的喜、樂(lè)、愛(ài)，而這些，只有在生命完結(jié)的時(shí)候，方能公正評(píng)說(shuō)。
倘若你在冬季就已放棄，你無(wú)疑會(huì)錯(cuò)過(guò)春季的勃勃生機(jī)，夏季的芬芳美麗，以及秋季的累累碩果，所以，切勿為一季的痛苦而破壞了其余三季的歡樂(lè)。
