小王子 = THE LITTLE PRINCE

我深知宇宙浩渺遼闊，人生漫長虛無，卻仍在黃昏逐水而歌。 人們的內心追求各不相同。芸芸衆生，自得其樂，自得其苦。 What is essential is invisible to the eye, The first book i have read is 《Who moved my cheese》and this is the second book ✅reading method thinking My top priority is oral English, so reading is just for fun.I’m not going to spend much time on written expressions.So I’ll read the book more fully and smoothly, instead of checking every word and every sentence and taking notes. Don’t underline unfamiliar words on the first‑time reading. Take more detailed notes after rereading the whole book so I will use the two‑pass reading method. First, extensive reading for fluency, then intensive reading for notes. ✅reading reflective Thinking No one understands the main character's drawings. This is extremely normal in the sense that everyone's inner feelings and ideals are different. We are all required to learn knowledge useful for exams or life, whether through school education or family education. Nevertheless, cultivating children’s personal interests and strengths is a matter of great consequence for education. The main character made the acquaintance of the Little Prince in the desert when his plane broke down. Like‑minded people will meet at a particular time.They understand each other even without saying a word. Grown‑ups get more practical, at the cost of childlike innocence and imagination. What arouses my curiosity is that they destroy the bad seeds right from the start.If they don’t do this, it means a catastrophe for the planet. So it is important to treat every small thing with the greatest care. If you ignore these small problems, it means a catastrophe for you. 🌷one loves the sunset, when one is so sad… He feels sad because he is lonely and upset about his rose. Sunset matches his sad feelings. ✅ Sometimes we say the opposite just to test people, but they don’t get what we really mean. it’s so great to express your needs directly. If you succeed in judging yourself rightly, then you are indeed a man of true wisdom." Everyone has their own choices, and others have no right to interfere. We only judge others for escaping from our own perspective When I touch a flower, I can feel what it's saying.When I walk outside, I can hear the wind.Looking at the stars is also a silent conversation. We connect with each other in that moment.Having something doesn’t mean owning it physically. 觸摸花能感受到花的訊息，走在路上能聽見風的聲音，看着星星不也是一種無聲的對話和交流嗎？在某個時間，你們彼此連接。擁有並非佔有，擁有並非一定要物理擁有。 Flowers will fade one day, but the joy of seeing them lasts forever. We long for something permanent, yet everything is always changing.花總有凋謝的一天，看花的你不會，看花的過程永遠不會。 當我們追求永恆的時候，隨之而來的往往是變化。 What is really essential is invisible to the eye, and the most precious experience cannot be replaced by anything. Everyone pursues beautiful dreams and a wonderful future, yet what truly matters is our inner pursuits. Even though technology and money can spare us time and grant us many comforts, I’d rather make my way toward the clean water.

小王子是我閱讀的第二本英文書籍，第一次看的英文小說是傲慢與偏見，相比第一次的小說此本要容易的多，閱讀英文小說之前至少有不下於兩次的中文閱讀和聽書相當於有了四遍的基礎，純粹是出於對人物的熱愛，才一再翻閱。 小王子和玫瑰的愛情，多像年少的我們，任性不懂得珍惜，卻終有一天忽然醒悟。小王子和狐狸，狐狸祈求小王子來馴養它，這樣它們就建立了連接，在雙方彼此眼中就成爲重要的人，不只是一隻普通的狐狸和小王子，其實小王子和玫瑰之間也是這樣，只不過玫瑰在小王子的關注照顧下事實不知不覺已經建立了這種連接並已發芽生根，念念不忘... 孩子的世界簡單，質樸，看到了生命的真善美，古希臘有種說法，美賦予了神性。而成年人活在虛榮，權利，金錢，守舊中不能自拔，週日勞累，又怎麼看到生命的意義和那些最美好的人和事？ . .. 閱讀摘錄: I hunt chickens; men hunt me. All the chickens are just alike, and all the men are just alike. And, in consequence, I am a little bored. But if you tame me, it will be as if the sun came to shine on my life. I shall know the sound of a step that will be different from all the others.Other steps send me hurrying back underneath the ground. Yours will call me,like music, out of my burrow. And then look: you see the grain-fields down yonder? I do not eat bread. Wheat is of no use to me. The wheat fields have nothing to say to me. And that is sad. But you have hair that is the color of gold.Think how wonderful that will be when you have tamed me! The grain, which is also golden, will bring me back the thought of you. And I shall love to listen to the wind in the wheat . . . What is essential is invisible to the eye What I see here is nothing but a shell. What is most important is invisible… The thing that is important is the thing that is not seen。

在小學和初中的時候都有了解到《小王子》，但是都沒有從頭到尾瀏覽過內容。經過了加起來十幾二十年的學習加工作經歷後，對這本書的情節，有了個人化的啓示。 小王子在和玫瑰的溝通中出現焦慮困惑與無助時，他選擇離開了他的星球，去了解不同星球的人的生活方式，沒有將自己困在原來的星球，而是選擇尋找答案。他遇見了唯利是圖的商人兢兢業業的掌燈人，熱衷於表達自我慾望的國王，渴望獲得持續讚美的先生，依賴探索家品德並伏案收集資料的地理學家，還有因產生愧疚但讓自己逃避愧疚的酗酒人。對這些不同類型並處在各自星球的大人，小王子都對他們的行爲進行了評價和診斷，並且沒有被他們所改變，只是瞭解了他們的問題和優點。最後遇到了狐狸，小王子明白了一切的獨特都源於是否與他的意識和實踐產生了聯繫，也更加理解了玫瑰的不安，明白了玫瑰在他心中的意義。所以如果遇到問題，多走走，多與不同的視角溝通，或許會明白到世界的廣闊與否，以及對世界的認識也會影響着與他人相處的觀念。 另外是可以更加了解人對於建立理解的渴望。或許人對事物的興趣和對因果關係的推測就是證明他在這個世界上獨一無二的方式。不論他的想法是否與他人相同，每個人從出生的那一刻開始就是佔據了一個特殊的點，不可能出現在同一個經緯度和同一個時間，他需要對自己的確認，但由於幼小的時候所見所聞有侷限，身邊成人的觀點和控制是他必須要服從的，否則可能被剝奪被支持的可能性，他還沒有機會去驗證自己的想法，所以也無法有信心。主人公是幸運的，即便小的時候他被壓抑了想象力，可是在這次飛機意外後，他在沙漠中遇到了和他同樣對萬事萬物都有具體關切的小王子，從這時開始，他的想象力成爲了他和小王子建立友誼的契機，也驗證了他的想象力不僅對於他自己，同時對於他人來說也是有意義的。 狐狸是有智慧的，因爲他知道意識的連接，並且生命體的存在需要依附於意識確認，無論是確認自己，還是確認他人。它沒有因爲能夠馴服小雞而感到滿足，因爲小雞或許沒有意識，無法因爲溝通而產生喜怒哀樂，也不會惦記它，或許這是狐狸非常樂於與小王子建立連接的原因。關係的重要性在於，是否能在意識中映照彼此，當然關係也分好壞，良好的關係是會產生愉快的情緒的，即便獵人是能夠惦記着狐狸，但也是要俘獲他的，並不是尊重他，照顧他。關於玫瑰，他或許是擔心只有自己是唯一一個，小王子纔會關心、照顧它，於是溝通時會誇大自己的感受，也會在不安中苛責小王子。這或許也是人們的困境，什麼纔是特別的自己，難道是地球上剩最後一個人的時候，那個人纔是特別的嗎(假設其他星球還不能入住)？答案是：不是的。一個人的特別從出生就已經註定了，是時、空、實踐、生理條件、心智條件、社會綜合構成的獨立個體。既然我們的獨特性是本質，那我們需要照顧自己並且去尋找讓自己快樂同時也尊重他人快樂的事物、面向多彩的世界。 人的生命長度是有限的，地球和世界的物質資源從目前的科學實證角度來看也是有限的，但是如果我們一直只向前奔跑，雖然對他人產生影響，但只有他人是能看到完整自己的，我們的眼睛也只能看向其他的事物(除了照鏡子和反思、觀察)，所以如果沒有停下來，和不同的人們交流或者意識中反思、瞭解自己，就難以確認自己需要什麼樣的方式去存在了(世界是由具體的顏色、氣味、結構形狀、材質、空間、時間所構成的，所以豐富感官是重要的途徑)，就會產生空虛。玫瑰讓小王子離開B612星球，是勇敢的，面對可能自己最後被發現並非是獨一無二的挫折，是無私的，也是關懷的。 看了《小王子》，我個人會把它在語言上歸類爲兒童讀本，因爲它沒有直接闡述社會運作的機制，人際交往的邏輯，但就像書裏說的，重要的事物都是不可見的。《小王子》通過人物之間的提問和回答，反映了人們可能有過的掙扎和困惑，容易讓人產生共鳴，但一般來說有過一定的閱歷也意味着到達了一定的年齡。畢竟故事裏的主人公敘述跨越的時間長度就是從幼年到成人。 雖然小王子最後離開了地球，與主人公告別，但是是非常美好的相遇。主人公在每個夜晚看到星星都會產生期待和希望，因爲他的存在或許已經被遙遠星辰中的B12星球的小王子所記住了。 我猜想之所以叫做小王子，而不是小國王，是因爲他身上體現了善良、正直、友好、寬容的美好品質，但是他只是在觀察和建議，沒有要求其他人去改變或者去服從於某種的想法。 此外，這本書很適合英文學習，很多單詞，例如disturbing,sketch,landscape在生活和學習中也常常會見到和被使用到。

2025年6月11日 星期三 祝福早安 天氣晴朗 氣溫27℃ 《小王子》 I believe that for his escape he took advantage of the migration of a flock of wild birds. On the morning of his departure he put his planet in perfect order. He carefully cleaned out his active volcanoes.He possessed two active volcanoes; and they were very convenient for heating his breakfast in the morning. He also had one volcano that was extinct.But, as he said, "One never knows!" So he cleaned out the extinct volcano, too. If they are well cleaned out, volcanoes burn slowly and steadily, without any eruptions. Volcanic eruptions are like fires in a chimney. On our earth we are obviously much too small to clean out our volcanoes. That is why they bring no end of trouble upon us. The little prince also pulled up, with a certain sense of dejection, the last little shoots of the baobabs. He believed that he would never want to return. But on this last morning all these familiar tasks seemed very precious to him. And when he watered the flower for the last time, and prepared to place her under the shelter of her glass globe, he realized that he was very close to tears. "Goodbye," he said to the flower. But she made no answer. "Goodbye," he said again. The flower coughed. But it was not because she had a cold. "I have been silly," she said to him, at last. "I ask your forgiveness. Try to be happy . . ." He was surprised by this absence of reproaches.He stood there all bewildered, the glass globe held arrested in mid-air. He did not understand this quiet sweetness. "Of course I love you," the flower said to him. "It is my fault that you have not known it all the while. That is of no importance. But you—you have been just as foolish as I. Try to be happy… Let the glass globe be. I don't want it any more." "But the wind—" "My cold is not so bad as all that… The cool night air will do me good. I am a flower." "But the animals—" "Well, I must endure the presence of two or three caterpillars if I wish to become acquainted with the butterflies. It seems that they are very beautiful. And if not the butterflies—and the caterpillars—who will call upon me? You will be far away… As for the large animals—I am not at all afraid of any of them. I have my claws." And, naïvely, she showed her four thorns. Then she added: "Don't linger like this. You have decided to go away. Now go!" For she did not want him to see her crying. She was such a proud flower… He sputtered a little, and seemed vexed. For what the king fundamentally insisted upon was that his authority should be respected. He tolerated no disobedience. He was an absolute monarch. But, because he was a very good man, he made his orders reasonable. "If I ordered a general," he would say, by way of example, "if I ordered a general to change himself into a sea bird, and if the general did not obey me, that would not be the fault of the general. It would be my fault." "May I sit down?" came now a timid inquiry from the little prince. "I order you to do so," the king answered him, and majestically gathered in a fold of his ermine mantle. But the little prince was wondering . . . The planet was tiny. Over what could this king really rule? "Sire," he said to him, "I beg that you will excuse my asking you a question—" "I order you to ask me a question," the king hastened to assure him. "Sire—over what do you rule?" "Over everything," said the king, with magnificent simplicity. "Over everything?" The king made a gesture, which took in his planet,the other planets, and all the stars. "Over all that?" asked the little prince. "Over all that," the king answered. For his rule was not only absolute: it was also universal. "And the stars obey you?" "Certainly they do," the king said. "They obey instantly. I do not permit insubordination." Such power was a thing for the little prince to marvel at. If he had been master of such complete authority, he would have been able to watch the sunset, not forty-four times in one day, but seventy two, or even a hundred, or even two hundred times,without ever having to move his chair. And because he felt a bit sad as he remembered his little planet which he had forsaken, he plucked up his courage to ask the king a favor: "I should like to see a sunset… Do me that kindness…Order the sun to set…" "If I ordered a general to fly from one flower to another like a butterfly, or to write a tragic drama, or to change himself into a sea bird, and if the general did not carry out the order that he had received, which one of us would be in the wrong?" the king demanded. "The general, or myself?" "You," said the little prince firmly. "Exactly. One must require from each one the duty which each one can perform," the king went on. "Accepted authority rests first of all on reason. If you ordered your people to go and throw themselves into the sea, they would rise up in revolution. I have the right to require obedience because my orders are reasonable." "Then my sunset?" the little prince

1.這是一本充滿童趣的書。當看到“Grown-ups are like that…”會一遍遍自省，當看到“who never in his life had let go of a question once he had asked it.”會會心一笑，可不是麼，小朋友就是這樣。 2.這是一本充滿哲思的書。 在花的眼裏，它這樣形容來來往往的人，“The wind blows them away. They have no roots, and that makes their life very difficult.”；還有這句 “It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye."唯有用心才能洞察一切。 3.這是一本充滿愛意的書。 小狐狸對小王子說“The grain, which is also golden, will bring me back the thought of you. And I shall love to listen to the wind in the wheat.” 4.這是一本充滿詩意的書。 如“It is such a secret place, the land of tears.”，“when a coil of gold, the color of the moonlight,flashed across the sand.” 5.這是一本帶有地理科普的書。 點燈人的故事描述了星球自轉快慢與白天黑夜的切換頻度，引申到地球上最先進入白天和黑夜的地方。 6.這是一本想象力豐富的書。 如小王子自己的星球很小，也到訪了很多很小的星球；如用火山做早餐。 書不長，抱着學英語的心，卻收穫了人生哲理，感覺很棒。

The thing that is important is the thing that is not seen.

finally, he understands the true meaning of existentialism, nothing has inherent meaning in the world, it was our interpretation that gives significance to our existence and everything around us.
