特凡A010 - 三個噴水池 (Three Fountains)

特凡經常講述利王亭的三個童話故事。其中一個是關於三個噴水池的故事。很久以前，在一個美麗的地方，某個公園裡有三座噴水池。前兩座噴水池非常壯觀，它們經常互相攀比。第三座噴泉只是一眼小小的噴水㳜。

第一座噴水池最大也最漂亮，吸引了許多遊客前來觀賞。第二座噴水池也很漂亮，但她想要獲得更多的關注。於是，她決定主動出擊。

她召喚了邪惡的鳥兒，往第一座噴水池里扔石頭，把噴水池堵得水流不暢。噴水池很快就完全堵塞了，不出水了，人們不得不去第二座噴水池參觀。

第二座噴水池很高興，更努力地噴水。但她也因此堵塞了管道。儘管如此，她仍然瞧不起那座可憐的小小噴水池。

冬天來了。人們不再像以前那樣專程來公園看噴水了，而是常常在第三個噴水池喝水。它基本上也就這點用處了。噴水池因為小而顯得無用，總是被嘲笑。而且它也不壯觀。

春天來了。第二座持續憎恨傷害了這座原本不錯的噴泉。它被閉氣所堵塞，無法噴出水來。在一個暴風雨季節，它被巨大的冰雹擊中，變成了一堆殘骸。噴水功能已不存在。

於是人們想到，也許是時候對第三個噴水池進行翻新，把它重建成一座宏偉壯觀的噴水池。舊的破損噴水池被拆除，騰出了空間來。

生活就是這樣，小事也能成就大事。關鍵在於你如何看待，有沒有賞識罷了。

There are three family fairytales of Court Ri often retold by Tefan. One is about a Three Fountains situation. Once upon a time, in a beautiful place, there were three fountains in a patk. First two were splendid and they often competed. The third was a spring.

The first fountain was the largest and most beautiful of all. It attracted a lot of visitors to see her. The second was really beautiful too but she wanted more attention. So she thought she should take an initiative.

She called the villainous birds and dropped stones into the first fountain so that it was choked to the fullest. The fountain got very clogged and soon no water came out at all and people had to go to next fountain.

The second fouatain was happy and took a lot more effort to spray more water. But it's such a great effort that she had choked its pipes in the process. Still she despised the third fountain that was pitifully small.

Winter came. People came less to the park to see fountain, but they often drank water in the third fountain. That's basically all it's good for. Second fountain teased the small for being useless. It isn't splendid at all.

Spring came. Continuous hatred had hurt a good fountain. She was so choked with air that no water came out. In a storm season she got hit by big hailstones and turned up as a pile of rumbles. There is no more.

Then people thoght maybe it's time to do a renovation where the third fountain can be rebuilt into a big splendid fountain. The old broken were removed to make way.

Life is such that small things can be great. It's really how you pay attention to it.
