Are you enjoying your life from within or without?

I came across with this meaningful story from the internet, I think it's great to share with all of you:

一群孩子在一位老人家门前嬉闹，叫声连天。几天过去，老人难以忍受。
于是，他出来给了每个孩子25美分，对他们说：“你们让这儿变得很热闹，我觉得自己年轻了不少，这点钱表示谢意。”

孩子们很高兴，第二天仍然来了，一如既往地嬉闹。老人再出来，给了每个孩子15美分。他解释说，自己没有收入，只能少给一些。15美分也还可以吧，孩子仍然兴高采烈地走了。
　　
第三天，老人只给了每个孩子1美分。

孩子们勃然大怒，“一天才5美分，知不知道我们多辛苦！”他们向老人发誓，他们再也不会为他玩了！

Translation in English:
Some kids were playing and laughing out loud outside of an old man's house and the old man hated it.

So the next day the old man came out to the kids and pay each of them 25 cents and said "Thanks for playing so loud in front of my house, this reminded me of my teenager memory"

Those kids were very happy and they keep on coming on the following day, the old man then gave each kid 15 cents as he explained "I am a poor old man with no income, 15cents is what I can afford". Those kids are still happy and they went home after.

On the third day, the old man gave each kid only 1 cent. All kids are angry and they said to him "We are not going to play for you anymore, 1 cent is soooo cheap" and then they left.


Feedback:

There are always 2 types of motivation inside us. One is from inside and one is from outside. Are we doing what we love from inside everyday? Or are we living our day to day because of our "outside" motivation? Have we forgotten our original "inside" motivation? Do we do our day to day routines because we WANT to or because we HAVE to? Do we still do what we have been doing if our boss is not giving us any salary? I don't have an answer for all these questions.........................YET.
