“Three Cups of Tea”


“Three Cups of Tea”
   Three Cups of Tea was a fantastic book, but was most like a move as Jeff said. No matter what it is, after reading, I trust more than 80% of the stories are true, that’s enough. Because this book is not a recorder, it is just a novel according the Greg’s true stories. Although for attracting readers’ eyes, the author maybe changes some details and make up some things, it is only want to satisfy readers’ demand and arose readers’ sympathy. As I read it I become increasingly amazed at how much Greg can accomplish, and I still have been thinking what dose “Three Cups of Tea” mean really.
  At beginning Greg climbing the K2, he only wants to put his sister’s necklace on the K2 peak. He lost in the valley, and almost dead under the mountain K2. Fortunately, he was rescued by Korph village people and felt could build a school for Korph children. Although the progress of building the first school for Korph was very difficult, and the time was a little long, Greg still didn’t give up. He almost lost everything, but he got his wife-Tara, who is very support him and loves him. As old saying goes “The God close one door, but open one window for you.” Though building school for Korph, Greg understood what was “Three Cups of Tea” real mean. He learned to how to communicate with local people. However, I think “Three Cups of Tea” tell us if we want to achieve some thing, the first cup of tea is to think about it, the second cup of tea is to plan it, the third cup of tea is to complete it. Such as charity, maybe many people want to do some thing for poor children, but they only drink the first cup of tea.

  So let us don’t waste our limit time to distinguish whether it is true or not, look forward to doing something for the people who need help.

  1. I think that's a good way to look at the book. Even though every detail may not be 100% true, the main message of the story can inspire people to volunteer or help others.

    Corrections:
    ...and I still have been thinking what “Three Cups of Tea” really means.
