Best way to keep love is to give it wings

曾经在书上看到这样一段话： 对于爱，要像放风筝那样，抓住那根线，又要让风筝高高的飞在蓝天上。将风筝牢牢抓在手心，它不能飞翔；不握住风筝的线，它又会偏离方向。和放风筝一样，若想让爱飞的更高更远，那就给爱自由，给爱空间。

There was once a lonely girl who longed so much for love. One day while she was walking in the woods she found two starving songbirds. She took them home and put them in a small cage. She cared them with love and the birds grew strong. Every morning they greeted her with a wonderful song. The girl felt great love for the birds.

One day the girl left the door to the cage open. The larger and stronger of the two birds flew from the cage. The girl was so frightened that he would fly away. As he flew close, she grasped him wildly. Her heart felt glad at her success in capturing him. Suddenly she felt the bird go limp. She opened her hand and stared in horror at the dead bird. Her desperate love had killed him.

She noticed the other bird moving back and forth on the edge of the cage. She could feel his great need for freedom. He needed to soar into the clear, blue sky. She lifted him from the cage and tossed him softly into the air. The bird circled once, twice, three times.

The girl watched delightedly at the bird‘s enjoyment. Her heart was no longer concerned with her loss. She wanted the bird to be happy. Suddenly the bird flew closer and landed softly on her shoulder. It sang the sweetest melody that she had ever heard.

The fastest way to lose love is to hold on it too tight, the best way to keep love is to give it wings!

人们都明白这样浅显易懂的道理，却老是在这样的问题上

一错再错。
