Free World / 隨意世界


沒有作業的寒假,好久沒來畫畫的男孩終於有時間畫圖。剛開始他們問:「這樣畫可以嗎?」我回答:「你想怎樣就怎樣!」楷維冒出了一句:「這裡是隨意世界!」其實像我這樣在工作上一直在訂規矩的人,和得遵守規矩的人一樣,也很需要隨意世界!

The winter break without homework gives the boys time to draw again after a long lapse. In the beginning they aren't very sure, "Can I draw in this way?" I can't help brushing off the question by replying, "As long as you like it." Then Kai blurts out, "Here is the Free World!" To be honest, I am required to impose restrictions on others at work, but I don't take delight in it. Like my students, I am also in great need of a free world! 



        哥哥太久沒畫圖了,一下畫了七張,弄得楷維很有危機感,不過思維好像停不下來。

     Von draws one picture after another. By the time I am aware of how far he has gone, he has drawn seven pictures, which makes Kai very jealous. Yet he can't stop. 







        思維是歷史控,看來他找到了發揮自己所愛的方式,這真的比任何寒假作業都有意義啊!

     Von is a history buff, and he really has a blast drawing the famous figures in Chinese history. I admit that teachers tend to have a sense of insecurity when asked not to give any assignment, but seeing what Von do, I am reminded again that less is more, and not doing any assignment can be very significant!
