Curtains Without Windows
© Copyright 1999, Jim Loy

Many years ago, I was eating (chicken, as I recall) at Kentucky Fried Chicken. I was watching a little child (maybe a couple of years old), whose mother (it would seem) was waiting in line to order food. The child walked up to a curtain, pulled it back, and was delighted to find a blank wall, no windows. The child tried to call his/her mother's attention to this situation. And the mother said, "Get away from there."

To me, the child represented all of the people who are curious about the world, who delight in new discoveries. The mother represented the multitudes of other people, who are not curious, whose minds are no longer alive to that sort of thing. You and I know that curtains and windows go together, but not always. We would not be surprised to find a blank wall behind a curtain. But, we are curious and childlike, aren't we? We want to know things, things that other people know,

I wondered if this child would be stifled, worn down, like so many, and become an adult without any childlike thoughts
就是指我所疑惑顾虑的这段!
令我伤心的是如果这个小孩像许多人一样被扼杀他应有的童真,那他长大后又会变成怎样呢?

指 if this child would be stifled, worn down, like so many, and become an adult without any childlike thoughts
想到那个小孩可能会因为这个而失去童心。
