喜樂美語

Picture taking something into your home and feeding it until it can stand on its own — knowing all along that it is not legally, or originally, yours. A child comes to live with a family for a while; a young idea is given room and attention until it grows. The word is about providing the conditions for growth, not about ownership.

可以想成：把一樣東西接進自己家裡，餵養它、照顧它，直到它站得起來——而且從頭到尾你都知道，它在名義上並不屬於你。一個孩子來住一段時間；一個還很小的想法被給了空間和關注，慢慢長大。這個字說的是「提供讓它長大的條件」，不是「擁有」。
