Yesterday, my eldest daughter suddenly asked me, "What is The Little Prince about?" When I first heard her question, I was very surprised on the one hand, and on the other hand, I was very happy, so I memorized a passage that flashed in my mind for the first time:
"The fox said, 'To me you are just a little boy, no different from thousands of other little boys, and I don't need you, and you don't need me; to you I am just a fox, no different from thousands of other foxes, but if you domesticate me, we will need each other. To me, you are unique in my world; I am the only one in your world to you. ”
The eldest daughter also felt very familiar when she heard it, she had heard me read this passage many times before, and said with surprise: "Oh, it turns out that this is from "The Little Prince", yes, there is a fox, what else?"
I thought for a moment: "And the baobab tree, the rose..."
The eldest daughter nodded and wanted to ask again. I finally asked the question in my heart: "Why did you suddenly ask about The Little Prince?"
The eldest daughter smiled embarrassedly, and I was clear in my heart, I guess it appeared in the game, but I was also a little curious about how there could be a little prince in the game. So she showed me the scenes in the game, and many of the scenes and characters in the "Little Prince Season" are related to "The Little Prince", and the picture is quite exquisite, making people feel as if they are on the planet of the Little Prince again.
Little Prince Season
Seeing that the eldest daughter was interested in "The Little Prince", I suggested that she read directly, just at home. The book "The Little Prince" was read by me many years ago when I was a student, when I saw the words in the book with a child's tone, it was as if I was in an innocent and beautiful fairy tale world, and I hoped that children could also read it themselves and feel "The Little Prince" for themselves.
The storyline of "The Little Prince" is simple, and the protagonist is a little prince from an alien planet. With a pilot as the narrator of the story, the little prince left his planet because of a beautiful and delicate rose, visited six planets successively, and met many incomprehensible adults, such as arrogant kings, vain gentlemen, constantly alcoholics, wealth-obsessed merchants, lamplighters, geographers, and so on. Eventually he came to Earth, where he met a fox who told him how to love and "you are always responsible for what you domesticate." You are responsible for your roses." The little prince finally chose to return to his planet and find his beloved rose.

01 About foxes
"If you tame me, then my life will be full of sunshine, and your footsteps will become different from other people's." The footsteps of others will make me quickly hide underground, while your footsteps will only be like music, summoning me out of the cave. ”
"If you come at four o'clock in the afternoon, from three o'clock I start to feel happy, and the closer the time comes, the happier I feel. At four o'clock I will be restless, and I will find the value of happiness, but if you come at any time, I don't know when I will be ready to meet your mood. ”
If I knew the concept of "ritual sense" from anywhere, I think it was the words of the fox in "The Little Prince" that gave me a lot of inspiration.
This moment is distinguished from other moments, and it is precisely because of this moment that you give it a new meaning, because of love, your heart is full of excitement and emotion, making all kinds of preparations for the arrival of this happy moment.
Love needs a sense of ceremony, and all rituals need us to act, to transform the love in our hearts into concrete actions and then convey to each other, so this upcoming moment becomes a special moment that both sides look forward to, and it is also a moment to create a beautiful moment, when remembered again, warm and beautiful feelings gush into the heart, and the heart is full of joy and touch again.
Just like our children are so looking forward to the arrival of each birthday, the closer the birthday, the more excited the child's mood, like a bird that is about to spread its wings, chirping and chirping, until the birthday cake appears on the table, the candle is lit, the warm candlelight reflects the child's excited and happy little face, the birthday song sings "Wish you a happy birthday...", blows out the candle, eats the sweet cake, the child is finally satisfied... After a while, the child said expectantly, "I still want to celebrate my birthday, when will it be my birthday?"
02 About roses
"Maybe there are five thousand flowers in the world that are exactly the same as yours, but only you are my unique rose."
"It's because you spend so much time on roses that your roses become so important."
"She alone is more important than all of you, because she was watered by me." Because she was the one I put in the flower hood. Because she was protected by me with a screen. Because the caterpillars on her body were destroyed by me. Because I have listened to his grievances and self-praise, and even sometimes I listen to her silence because she is my rose. ”
Every time I read these paragraphs about roses, my heart is full of emotions, especially as a mother, the mood of raising children is no less than raising roses.
After being pregnant in October, experiencing hundreds of days and nights of nursing children to grow up, watching children grow from a small baby, into a naïve and cute little girl, and then to a stubborn and messy big child, under the watering of countless time and energy, they became my unique children, we established such a deep and close connection, whenever I heard my daughter say "Mom, I love you!" "My heart is always full of sweetness and touch.
03 About love and responsibility
The little prince left rose and said, "I am too young to know how to love." ”
The fox said to the little prince, "Only by using one's heart can we see the essence of things, and what is really important cannot be seen by the naked eye."
We often take the efforts of family and friends as a habit, when encountering the trough in life, we suddenly realize that those important people or things in life need us to spend time and energy to maintain and cherish, do not take everything for granted.
You envy others for taking care of the garden beautifully, and the flowers are delicate and wonderful; you envy the smart directors and excellent directors of other people's children; you envy other people's successful careers and family happiness... As everyone knows, there are countless sweats behind this, and behind each kind of glamorous success there is time and energy spent with heart.
We all have a unique treasure, as long as we feel and discover with our hearts, love it with our hearts, care for it, I believe that one day, it can also emit dazzling light!
