It is great to attempt great things, but it is amazing to enjoy the little things. I was at a restaurant and there was a banner with a slogan, “ENJOY THE LITTLE THINGS”. It is about the delicious desserts. I do enjoy desserts from time to time. However, eating or food does not constitute all the time of our life. Instead, it is only a small portion of our daily living. Are there other little things worthy of our attention?
We are living in an environment often surrounded by little plants and animals. It is amazing if we are able to enjoy looking at them. And there is much to learn if we are able to relate them to life lessons.
Taking the little bees as an example, they depend on flowers for their food. As they are attracted to the flowers, and that would lead to pollination, without which, many plants cannot reproduce themselves. There is obviously a mutualistic dependency between the flower and the bees.
By looking at a bee, a little insect, collecting nectar, we know the bee is on the way of pollinating flowers if we have some understanding of pollination. As we relate the bee collecting nectar and pollinating flowers to the human relationship, human beings in a somewhat similar way have to depend on one another for the ongoing survival and living. Beside that, the relationship between the bees and flowers is indeed a complicated process leading to having honey for our consumption. What an amazing experience for us to look at a little bee and a flower and think of honey being made available for our consumption!
尝试作大事是伟大的，但享受一些小东西具有奇妙的经历。我在一家餐馆看到了一个标语，上面写着“享受小东西”。这是关于促销美味的甜点。我不时喜欢享用甜点。然而，饮食或美食并不构成我们生活的所有时间。相反，它只是我们日常生活的一小部分。还有其他值得我们关注的小事情吗？
我们生活在一个经常被小植物和动物包围的环境中。如果我们能够欣赏牠们，这种过程是美妙的。如果我们又能够将牠们与生活教训联系起来，这会成为好的学习体验。
就以小蜜蜂为例，牠们依靠花来作为食物。由于牠们被花吸引，并且会导致授粉，没有这过程，许多植物不能繁殖自己。花和蜜蜂之间显然存在着相互依赖关系。
通过观察一只蜜蜂，即一只小小昆虫采集花蜜，如果我们对授粉有一些了解的话，我们知道蜜蜂正在授粉花卉的过程中。当我们将采蜜和授粉的花朵与人类的关系联系起来时，人类也以相似的方式彼此依赖来维持生存和生活。除此之外，蜜蜂和花朵之间确实包含了一个复杂的过程，最终导致我们得享蜂蜜。这是多么美妙的体验让我们看到一只小蜜蜂和一朵花，并联想到蜂蜜可供作我们享用！
