My wife and I love the concept of growing your own veggies.

我和我的妻子兩人都非常喜愛自己栽種蔬菜的概念。

You know, we have lettuce, we have onion, we have cabbage, we have so many different vegetables, and it's just so cool,

我們自己種萵苣、洋蔥、高麗菜，還有其他許多不同種類的蔬菜，這真的很有趣。

and I'm just in awe of how things grow.

萬物的生命力令我嘆為觀止。

You know, you plant a seed, and you add water, and with the sunlight, it grows into something.

你懂的，你播下一顆種子、灌溉它，在陽光的照耀下，種子發芽長大。

In our life, there are many times where we plant seeds of encouragement in loved ones' lives around us,

在我們的生活裡，許多時候我們都會在周遭所愛的人生命中播下鼓勵的種子，

and you sort of get discouraged when you're trying to encourage them, and it just doesn't seem to work.

不過有時候，你的鼓勵似乎起不了什麼作用，多少會令你感到灰心。

You know, some seeds grow into something, some seeds don't.

你要知道，有些種子能發芽，有些則不行。

But us, we have to look at ourselves as the farmer, scattering the seeds,

因此我們可以將自己看做是農夫，去播撒種子，

knowing that we don't know which seed will actually take root, grow into a tree, and produce fruit.

並認清我們無法知道哪一顆種子能發芽、生根、長成能結果的樹。

But don't worry about that. Keep on scattering those seeds,

別太擔心太多，就持續播種。

and once those seeds are planted, be patient, and watch them grow.

種下種子後，就耐心的看著他們成長吧！
