B
Every day after school, Bob would run home, pick up his guitar, and lose himself in the music. Playing the guitar was his greatest joy.
One day, a local talent show was planned and made public. Bob decided to join, but soon he started to worry. He began to question his skills. The fear of failure troubled him.
Bob’s grandfather noticed he was upset. He then shared a story from his childhood. “I once dreamed of being a painter, but self-doubt held me back,” he said. “I went to see an old artist, who told me to paint a picture in front of a crowd. I was scared and didn’t know what to do.” The artist smiled and said, “Don’t worry about what others think. Paint from your heart. True beauty comes from being true to yourself, not perfect.” With this advice, Bob’s grandfather followed his heart and painted freely.
Encouraged by his grandfather’s story, Bob practised hard every day. On the day of the talent show, he walked onto the stage and played better than ever before. His fingers moved over the strings（弦）, creating music that touched the listeners’ hearts.
“I learned that success isn’t just about winning a prize — it’s about enjoying what you love to do,” Bob said. “The true award is the process（过程）itself.”
