There’s this kid, who put aside his lollipop for broccoli. All of his friends raised their eyebrows and called him weirdo. The kid said that he just couldn’t stand the sweetness of the candy. He defined sweetness as something he tasted in broccoli.

Other story is about a queue on a theme park. There’s one particular kid, different from the broccoli kid. This one stood in awe in front of the roller coaster ride. He’s on the queue line, but he just stood there and people passed him by. He felt the enthusiasm of the ride but never really experienced one. It’s either that he couldn’t move his feet or he didn’t get any permit to get in the ride.

OK, last one. No kid, just an old man. This old man could be an Englishman. He loves tea very much. He enjoys its smell. When he makes a cup of tea, he always closes his eyes and breathes deeply just to let his nose send the smell of his favorite drink to the brain. After that, his mind always wanders around, showing paths of his life, childhood, teenage, adulthood, and now. Then when he opens his eyes, his tea has gone cold.

  4. Interesting stories..

    Well, I want to be the broccoli kid, but now I’m still the rollercoaster kid, and I don’t want to be the old man, never.

    Btw, where did you get these stories??

    Sooner or later, mas, you will be an old man! I think all of us can be at those three situations. The question is how we response. Those stories? from my brain, mas. Wkwkwkwk
