教育关系到一个家庭甚至一个民族一个国家的未来。但，我们很难搞清楚什么是教育，它的目的是什么？
Education is related to the future of a family, even a nation.But it is difficult to us to see what education is,and what its purpose is?
教育这个词综合性很强，但目的只有一个，那就是：尊重生命，开发人性。而不是用一套模式培养完全适应社会的“人才”。今天就教育的“有用”和“无用”来简单谈一谈教育的普世价值和不足。
'Education',a very comprehensive word,but one purpose: respecting life and developing nature of human beings. Instead of using a set of model of education to cultivate 'talents' in order to adapt to society. According to "useful" and "useless" of education, briefly discussion the universal values and shortcomings of education.
孩子应该多做些“无用”的事情？
Should children do something "useless"?
那到底什么事情是“有用”的，什么又是“无用”的呢？
What's the "useful" thing,how about the "useless" one on earth?
近一百年来的中国教育都是基于“有用”。
Nearly a hundred years,education has being based on "usefulness".
我们的学校教育、社会教育、家庭教育、教学规划、教育目标、课程布置、作业安排，当然也包括所谓的文化传承、救国救民等等这一系列的准备都说明我们要学“有用”的东西！什么是“有用”的东西呢？将来能够帮助考上好学校，能够找到更好的工作，谋取高薪，找个好人家，获取一定的社会地位和权利，能够……所以，在这种思想模式下，人的一生都在为了“有用”而忙碌着，奔波着。到死都不知道此生到底为何而来。
School education,social education family education,teaching goal, curriculum arrangement,homework assignment,including the so-called cultural inheritance and so on,of which means the "useful" things we want to learn! What's the "useful" thing?In the future,those things which will help you get into a better school,be for a better job,position and right,get a high salary,have a good marriage, and……So,people are always busy and busy with the mode of thought,and unaware of which what life is until death.
记得我那时才几岁，时常听大人们说“做活路（川话：Zu Huo Lu ）”，那时候还小，只知道就是去上班嘛，工作嘛！年纪渐长，才慢慢琢磨它的深层次意思：赚钱，找活路，生路，不赚钱就是死路一条，永远为了生计而忙活着，仅此而已！
I had often heard people say'Zu Huo Lu' when I was a few years old,from that I had only known which means 'go to work'.I had known the meaning of it until l grow up:Earning a living forever,that's over!
一位著名的企业家，家财万贯，富可敌国，在弥留之际，让人把棺材掏两个洞，好在死后他的双手可以伸出来，目的是让后人看看他到底带走了什么？毋庸置疑，空空如也！A famous entrepreneur,rich and wealthy.On his deathbed,two holes was made in his coffin in order to his hands were able to held out after his death,from which showed what he could take away.Needless to say,it was empty！
当然，人各有志，并不是说不该学“有用”的东西，只是该问问你自己是不是心安，所做的事有无意义！
Of course,every man has his mind.I have never said that you should not learn something 'useful',in which you have to ask yourself that whether does it make sense?Are you happy?
什么是“无用”的事呢？
What is the something 'useless'?
比如，小朋友们藏猫猫、过家家、玩儿泥巴之类的游戏被认为是贪玩儿、浪费时间又“无用”的事。
For example,some games what children play, like hiding and seeking,playing house and clay and so on,which are considered to be fun, waste of time and useless.
达尔文小时候整天“不务正业”：看蚂蚁窝，捉蝴蝶，抓老鼠，打鸟，养狗，观察臭虫，就是不愿意学习。父亲又急又气，认为他整天无所事事，长大后肯定没有出息还会丢全家人的脸。可是，达尔文就是从这些看似“无用”的事情中，成就了一番伟业，改变了人类对生命进化的认识。
Darwin was not 'in business':looked at ants' nests, catched butterflies and mice, played birds, kept dogs, watched bugs, but didn't want to learn when he was a little boy.His father was angry and urgent,and Darwin was considered that he was no interest and a loss of face.
你能够决定你的孩子所做的事情是“无用”还是“有用”吗？如果能够，那说明你正在用你的局限限制你的孩子！
Can you distinguish that it is something 'useful' or 'useless' what your kids are doing?If you can, maybe, you are limiting your kids with your limitation.
我们应该给孩子多留点自我想象，自我成长的空间，让他们多与大自然亲密接触。他们喜欢玩儿泥巴，就让他们玩儿，随心所欲，想怎么捏就怎么捏，想捏什么就捏什么；喜欢探险，就带他们去探险；喜欢爬树，就让他们爬树，没有条件，创造条件也要满足。喜欢煮饭，就不要不舍不得原材料；让其在与自然和生活的亲近中释放天性，享受快乐！说不定哪天就找到了自己此生的使命！让这样快乐的童年滋养他们的一生，使他们在成年之后，心灵少一些阴影、扭曲、恐惧和冲突，多一些满足和温暖。
We should give more space which the children self-growing.and be close to nature in which they do whatever they want,like playing the mud,adventure and climbing tree,like to cook,you have not to begrudge the raw material,in which they can release and enjoy themselves,from which they may find the life's mission someday,maybe.Happy childhood nourish their life in which there is to be less shadow,distortion,fear and conflict,more satisfaction and warmth in their heart.
一个专心致志，怀着极大的热情观察日出日落，看着树枝随风摇动，倾听鸟儿的鸣叫，看他们一起嬉戏打闹……其中没有喜好，没有选择，没有冲突，没有强迫和恐惧，这样的头脑是敏锐的，心灵是自由的，是完整的！
A child,with concentration and extreme enthusiasm,who observing the sunrise and sunset,watching the branches sway in the wind, listening to the birds singing,and watching them play with each other,whose mind is keen,heart is free and complete,because there is no likes or dislikes,without choice,conflict,coercion and fear in his heart.
每个孩子都是上帝派来的天使，人间的精灵。每个孩子都是千里马，你，是那个伯乐吗？
Each child is an angel sent by god, the spirit of the world. And every child is a swift horse.Are you a talent scout?
