Do you want to be successful in everything you do? If so, then how? Here is an example.
Once there’s a farmer in the village. He grows corn（玉米）all his life. Each year, he takes his corn to the market. Then each time, his corn is the best. Therefore, he often wins the first prize.
One year, a newspaper reporter interviews him about how he grows it. His answer makes all very surprised, he says, “I give my corn seed（种子）to my neighbors.”
“How can you share your best corn seed with your neighbors?” the reporter asks, “You know they are taking part in the competition with you each year.”
“Why not, Sir?” says the farmer, “Don’t you know the wind picks up pollen（花粉）from corn and moves itquickly from field to field? If my neighbors grow bad corn, then cross-pollination（异花传粉）will affect（影响）the quality（品质）of mine. So if I want to grow good corn, I must help my neighbors to grow good one.”
The farmer knows much about the life. His corn cannot improve unless his neighbors’ corn improves.
A meaningful life is not decided by how much we can get, but by how much we can give to others. Giving, instead of taking, makes us different from others.So those who choose to live well must help others to live well and those who choose to be happy must helpothers to find happiness in their lives.
