Chapter 58 The fifty-seventh gathers sunshine

The weather was not very good for a while, and it was gloomy every day. I remember waking up one morning, the sky suddenly cleared up, and the sun shone on the temple, soft and warm.At noon that day, Jie An and Jie Chen went to the town together. When they reached the center of the town, they saw a few children lying in a circle in the middle of the street from a distance.These children are also familiar with Jie Chen, they all belong to nearby residents, and sometimes they will play with Jie Chen and Jie Chi in the temple. Looking from a distance, the children seem to be playing poker from their postures, but they are very quiet, there is no noise playing cards, they just put their heads together and look at the ground in the middle, and they don't make much movement. It doesn't look like I'm playing a game, I don't know what I'm watching.

Jie Chen and Jie Chen were a little puzzled, Jie Chen went straight to the side of the children, and put their heads together to watch. Jie Chen couldn't help being curious, approached them, and saw a few children with focused expressions, so he poked his head in through the gap above their heads, and saw a blank piece of paper on the ground, and a child was holding a magnifying glass in his hand. know what to do. Jie An couldn't help poking his head forward, wanting to take a closer look, the children suddenly let out a collective sigh. A child raised his head and said to Jie Chen: "Master Jie Chen, we are doing a physics experiment. We want to experiment. Use a magnifying glass to gather sunlight together and light the white paper."

Jie Chen gave a soft "Oh", thinking that this was the case, and wondered that these children actually knew me. The child said with some reproach: "We were about to succeed, but Master Jie'an's big head blocked all our sunlight." So it was like this, Jie Chen was a little embarrassed, hurriedly retracted his head, leaned to the side and looked inside, it feels really bad to be recognized for doing something bad. The children resumed focusing the sunlight with the magnifying glass. The midday sun was refracted by the magnifying glass and turned into a bright spot of light. The child holding the magnifying glass slightly adjusted the distance, the white paper changed color slightly, and then a hole was burned out amidst the cheers of the children.

That day I took Jie Chen back to the mountain, Jie Chen asked me why the white paper was burning, Jie Chen said that it was because the sunlight was collected. The warm sunshine shines on us unconsciously. We only notice their existence, but we rarely realize their power. When it becomes a small light spot, there will be an unexpected burst of energy. If you hit a wooden board with your palm, even if your palm turns red, the wooden board may not be damaged at all, but if you swing a hammer with the same force to hit a nail, it will penetrate the wooden board with only a small amount of effort.

How can we not understand such a simple truth? There are too many reasons in our hands, but they are often easily missed by us like water in the palm of our hand.
