在子女谈待久了，会看到许多的担忧。。。
很多都是成功的人士，但你总能感觉到他们不够快乐。
现在想想，懂得享受生活简单快乐的，也是一种能力：）
下面这位耶鲁的历史教授，就是这样的牛人。
讲课的过程中，常常会听到那种快乐的笑声，你一定会被感染。因为这样的笑，是发自内心、自然的，不是简单的肌肉抽动。
她热爱自己的教学，对发现的每一个历史小细节津津乐道，不亚于发现新大陆的样子。。。
听她的课，真的是一种享受。
她教The American Revolution，开篇就谈到了5个学习的tips，也许，这也有助于我们学习和思考其他的历史事件。看这几天weston发的历史贴想到的。
She also offers five tips for studying the Revolution:
1) Avoid thinking about the Revolution as a story about facts and dates;
2) Remember that words we take for granted today, like "democracy," had very different meanings;
3) Think of the "Founders" as real people rather than mythic historic figures;
4) Remember that the "Founders" aren't the only people who count in the Revolution;
5) Remember the importance of historical contingency: that anything could have happened during the Revolution.
