D
I guess I always knew about the little fish treat, but this past summer it was all I could see. Pipin and Nemo were flying through hoops(圈), dancing with the trainer, and we were all applauding(鼓掌)— the little kids were excited. That’s when the trainer, rewarded Pipin and Nemo with a fish. Each time they successfully performed a trick, they’d get an immediate reward.
These animals weren’t really dancing, of course. They were performing a series of movements that they knew would have a fish. It’s such a good show because the sea lions look like they’re having such fun. These talented performers who love to be in front of people seem almost human.
Somewhere in our life journey, we all have a sea lion moment. You see how you’ve spent years jumping through hoops, not because it’s really who you are, but because you’ve always done it and you will get reward for your performance. But when you’ve done that for ten or twenty years, you start to ask yourself, “Who am I working for? What do I really believe?” Suddenly you see it: you’ve spent almost all your life taking direction(方向) from other people. They’ve told you what to believe in, what to work for, how to live your life. You don’t want to end your life like George. George is speaking to his son Ted, who cannot follow in his father’s steps. He wants to leave college and head off on his own way. “Dad, I can’t stand it any more,” the boy says. “Maybe it’s all right for some kids. Maybe I’ll want to go back some day, but now, I want to do what I want to and become myself.” George, seeming old, says, “I’ve never done a single thing I’ve wanted to in my whole life!”
The Good-Bye Gate brings us naturally to a second passage, leading from being dependent to being self. You start to find out that where there is supposed to be a self, there really isn’t.
