There was a boy who was sent to a boarding school. He used to be the brightest student in his class. He was at the top in every competition. But things changed after that. His grades started dropping. He hated being in a group. He was lonely all the time. He felt worthless and that no one loved him.
一个男孩被送到寄宿学校念书。他以前是班上最聪明的学生，在所有竞赛中都独占鳌头。到了寄宿学校后情况却变了。他的成绩开始下滑，讨厌团体活动，总是形单影只。他觉得自己一无是处，没人再爱他了。
His parents began to worry. But even they did not know what was wrong. So his dad decided to visit the school and talk with him.
他的父母开始为他担忧。但就连他们也不知道出了什么问题。于是，他的父亲决定到学校走一趟，跟他好好谈一谈。
They sat on the bank of the lake near the school. The father started asking him casual questions about his classes, teachers and sports. Then he asked, “Do you know, son, why I am here today?”
他们坐在学校附近的湖岸上。父亲一开始只是问儿子一些平常的问题，例如他上了什么课、老师怎么样、进行什么运动等。然后他问：“儿子，你知道我今天为什么到这里来吗？”
The boy said, “To check my grades?”
男孩说：“来查看我的成绩？”
“No, no,” his dad replied. “I am here to tell you that you are the most important person for me. I want to see you happy. I don’t care about grades. I care about you. I care about your happiness. YOU ARE MY LIFE.”
“不，不，”他的父亲回答。“我来是为了告诉你，你是我最重要的人。我希望看到你开心。我在乎的不是成绩。我在乎的是你。我在乎的是你过得快快乐乐。你是我的生命。”
Now the boy had everything he wanted. He knew there was someone on this Earth who cared for him deeply. He meant the world to someone.
现在，这个男孩拥有他需要的一切了。他知道在这个世界上有人非常非常关心他，他就是这个人的一切。
Thanks a lot, Dad.
非常感谢您，爸爸。
