有期盼

以前喺圖書館機緣巧合之下睇到一本《綠山牆的安妮》，大部分內容都唔記得嚕，而令我印象好深刻嘅係佢入邊嘅一句話（大概意思）：

如果有期盼，就會有一半嘅快樂；即使喺現實之中冇法實現都好，至少我哋喺期盼嘅時候就已經得到咗快樂。

原文：

"..."Oh, Marilla, looking forward to things is half the pleasure of them," exclaimed Anne. "You mayn’t get the things themselves; but nothing can prevent you from having the fun of looking forward to them. Mrs. Lynde says, 'Blessed are they who expect nothing for they shall not be disappointed.' But I think it would be worse to expect nothing than to be disappointed."..."

所以對呢本書都記到而家，確實都好符合我嘅認知

而我都喺度諗，如果係噉嘅話，即使有一件事好難實現到，但我哋都可以通過呢種方式去獲得好多次嘅快樂？

理論上應該可以，如果一個人對一件事嘅期盼由始至終都唔會畀一次次嘅失敗告吹而泄氣嘅話；不過現實中感覺會比較難啲，除非每次失敗都係有合適理由，如果唔係，大概3~5次之後就好難再提起期盼嘅勇氣

最後就係想講，無論點，呢個世界都係有希望嘅，好多嘢我哋確實控制唔到，不過我哋可以揀要積極啲過定係消極噉過，只要唔係到人生嘅最後階段，仲係會有唔同嘅可能性

I look forward to things, and I enjoyed a good weekend!
