Be Yourself

Be Yourself Frank was a fish. He had a good fish life, but he wasn't happy with it. All day, he would sit and watch the birds in the air fly from tree to tree. Frank wanted to be a bird, not a fish. Frank swam as fast as he could through the water and leaped into the air. He felt just like a flying bird until…. he realized that he was having trouble breathing.

做你自己 弗兰克是一条鱼。他过着鱼的生活,但是他对此不满意。他整天都坐在那里,看着天上的鸟从一棵树飞到另一棵树。 弗兰克想成为一只鸟,而不是一条鱼。弗兰克以最快的速度游过水面,然后跳到空中。他觉得自己就像一只飞翔的鸟,直到……他意识到自己呼吸有困难。

He landed back in the water just as he was gasping for his last breath. “ That was strange, ” he thought. He jumped into the air again. But this time, he got caught in a low branch by the river. He was in a tree like a bird, but he couldn't breathe. He regretted trying to be a bird and struggled to wiggle free. Plop! Frank landed back in the water. After a few minutes, he caught his breath. He swam straight home and vowed to be the best fish he could be.

就在他喘着最后一口气的时候,他又落回了水里。 “真奇怪,”他想。他又跳了起来。但这次,他被困在河边一根低矮的树枝上了。他像鸟一样在树上,但他不能呼吸。他后悔试图变成一只鸟,挣扎着要挣脱。扑通一声地!弗兰克又落回了水里。 几分钟后,他喘了口气。他径直游回家,发誓要成为最好的鱼。
