When the world becomes dark, I fantasize that a beautiful rainbow appears in front of me; When I feel lonely, I fantasize about having lovely partners around me; When you are homeless, imagine yourself being held by your mother and loved by your father. Who is this man? That's Annie.
Anne, the protagonist of Anne of Green Gables, is optimistic and loves life. At the age of six, she was taken home by Matthew's uncle and admitted to the university by her own efforts, but she gave up her studies to take care of Marilla.
After reading this book, I can't help admiring Anne. What a lovely person Anne is! When she was sold as a servant by the director of the orphanage, she did a lot of menial work every day, but she didn't complain about others and did her own thing happily every day. When she was taken home by Uncle Matthew and then tried to send her back to the orphanage, she was not sad at all and happily greeted the scenery on the road. When she was bullied in the orphanage, she didn't think about how to retaliate against others. She laughed and lived a very happy life every day.
Because Anne always believes that life is beautiful, she is full of gratitude to God, so she can live a child's life with her family for one day. On the way to the orphanage, she also said that life is beautiful, why give up?
Look at the suicides often published in newspapers, because they have encountered some setbacks and can't take it easy. Why is this? Although there will inevitably be some setbacks in life, as long as you love life, you can certainly overcome it. They should really watch Anne of Green Gables and learn from Anne. She went through setbacks and tried to overcome them, but didn't she get what she wanted in the end? How can I meet a rainbow without experiencing wind and rain?
In fact, most of us are people who love life.
I don't know if you have heard of this man, Huang Meilian.
She has cerebral palsy since she was a child, and sometimes she loses consciousness and suffers from dementia. At that time, five people in her family lived on the money of her father working alone, and the monthly salary was only 1000 yuan. Later, her father was old and in poor health, so she relied on her mother to grow vegetables for a living. Where will there be hundreds of thousands of yuan to treat Huang Meilian? So Huang Meilian has been dragging an incurable disease, and by the time she was fourteen, she was disabled. But she laughs like Annie every day. No, she loves life and studies hard. Finally, he was admitted to the University of California and received his doctorate. I was deeply impressed by what she said in a speech.
In the lecture, a little boy asked Huang Meilian a question: Dr. Huang, what do you think of yourself? The audience nearby stared at the little boy, worried that this question touched a sore spot for Huang Meilian and made her sad.
Who knows, Huang Meilian was not sad, but smiled and wrote five articles on the blackboard:
First, I'm so cute.
Second, my teeth are so white.
Third, my parents love me very much.
Fourth, I can draw and write.
I have a lovely cat.
People are shocked and admired for Huang Meilian's disability, but he is so optimistic.
At this time, Huang Meilian added: I only look at what I have, not what I don't have. I believe that life is beautiful. If I don't give in to fate, I will open a beautiful window of love for you. Love life, but also love yourself.
Yes, students, life is beautiful, but I wonder if you have a pair of eyes to observe beauty. Let's open our eyes, feel the beauty of life and love this beautiful life!
Thoughts after reading a good book in summer vacation (2)
Every book has its own soul. When you read a book, you will unconsciously fall into the world envisaged by that book. It seems that every character will be spliced into touching pictures and connected in series into touching scenes. In this way, it is clearly presented to us. Because all books have different souls, so does the world conceived by nature. And the soul is every book, its own thoughts, or wishes to be expressed.
We will burst into tears because of those touching books, or our blood will boil because of those books that record the history of humiliation, and even imagine ourselves as the best people in the world because of those martial arts fantasy books. The Old Man and the Sea is an instinctive book, which lets people know what real life is and what is a strong book. A ship crosses the end of the world and sails for the unknown sea. On the bow of the boat, there is a flag, which is still gorgeous despite the wind and rain erosion. The word "Yunlong" on the national flag is dancing and shining beyond the limit! Author Hemingway commented on his work The Old Man and the Sea.
When I first read this book, the loneliness of the old people always makes people feel pity inadvertently and can't help but bow their heads and sigh. Countless times ushered in the morning sun and sent away the sunset glow. Waiting day by day, but always can't wait for what you want; Disappointed again and again, but always silently looking forward to the old fisherman struggling to live and depressed at sea. You must remember the worn canvas on the old man's fishing boat, like a failed flag, as if to announce the bad luck that the old man will never catch fish. His hands were covered with calluses and his skin was spotted by the dazzling sunshine. The tattered fishing boat can't withstand any storm, and his shabby hut is also the kind of rain outside.
However, he did not give up hope for life, and still went fishing in the first sunshine every morning. Whether he gains or not, he will insist on fishing at sea, not only because he makes a living by fishing, but because fishing has become a part of his life. As a memory, maybe life needs such optimism and openness.
When I picked it up again and relived all the plots in the book, my inner feelings sublimated again. As if all these difficulties are mine, I have a deeper understanding of the elderly. I was moved by the old man's perseverance in the face of difficulties. However, in reality, some people can't persist. Faced with setbacks, they choose to give up and escape. We may lose confidence in ourselves because we fail in the exam. Or because of criticism from others. At that time, think about this strong old fisherman, how he faced life. Now we are only facing some setbacks in our study and life. Compared with the old fisherman, it's really only nine Niu Yi hairs.
As this book says, a person is not born to be defeated. You can destroy him as much as you can, but you can never beat him.
We must learn to be tough, human nature is tough, and human beings have their own limits, but it is precisely because people like the old fisherman have challenged and surpassed again and again that this limit has been expanded again and again, and greater challenges have been placed in front of human beings again and again. In this sense, a hero like the old fisherman Santiago deserves our eternal respect no matter whether he succeeds or fails in challenging the limits.
Life is an ocean, sometimes rough and sometimes calm. You can feel the persistence in the wind and the excitement in the waves! These are the joys and pains brought by the process! However, the difficulty of life is reflected in the courage you show in the face of difficulties. You have as much hardness as you have willpower!
Thoughts after reading a good book in summer vacation (3)
Outside the window, dark blue lightning flashed through the cracks, the sound of rain and thunder staggered, and the air was filled with cold breath. I made a cup of hot tea and enjoyed Bi Shumin's Walking with the Soul with my mother.
Wandering in her clever words, my heart is warm.
Bi Shumin is a legendary woman. Our teacher also loves her works and often recommends them to us for appreciation. After reading this book carefully, I am more convinced of this. More than ten years' experience as a female doctor in the Ali Military Division of Tibet has made her writing feel a little intimate. This book records many random thoughts about her trip. What I remember most is the hospitable 87-year-old grandmother Yue Lanna. I remember her harsh but enthusiastic rebuke to the guests who were late; Her beetle ice cream; The back of her hand was red and swollen from picking strawberries; The sheets of her house sixty years ago; Visiting the town museum with her.
Just like the author's trip, it may be just an ordinary experience in the 87-year-old career of Grandma Luna, but it is a long memory for the author. Most of the warmth will be remembered, but now, in such a complicated era, the sinister and cunning of people's hearts have gradually replaced the original familiarity. Where are those once warm?
Perhaps, more and more people choose to look on coldly and remain indifferent. There are more and more people coming and going in the street, with no expression. Those who once enthusiastically gave directions on the main road, those who respected the old and gave up their seats on the bus, and even those who just didn't litter, all walked on the road with another face. Those once clear and pure eyes don't know how to disappear gradually in the long years.
I heard a report that a teenage boy resolutely jumped off the bridge and wrote in his suicide note that if someone could smile at him and care about him when he was walking on the bridge, he would not jump. Unfortunately, no one gave this absent-minded teenager the simplest smile. When a person walks alone on a wooden bridge, he is cold, numb, indifferent and full.
Distance between people. Where is Grandma Yue Lana's warm home in the flashy and noisy world? Where is the sincere heart that asks for nothing in return?
By my side, my classmates smiled at everyone. If you encounter some minor setbacks, you can cry if you want, and laugh happily. Almost no gloom can last more than an hour and infect the happiness of people around you for more than ten years. Delicate thoughts can always discover everyone's unhappiness and convey warmth in time.
At this moment, my thoughts slipped into this year's Mother's Day, and my message: Mom, you broke my heart for me, and I can't repay you. If there is an afterlife, I hope we are still mother and daughter. I will be your mother and let you have no worries and rest assured once. Teachers say my writing is the gentlest and warmest! I really like this feeling of home.
A warm and dynamic picture emerged in my mind over the past year: colorful clouds filled the sky, and we joined hands with our parents (Xiangyang Sunflower Base) to enjoy the flowers, intoxicated and dreamy; On the eve of Thanksgiving, a parent-child activity class was held, and we fed our parents cakes, which was warm and harmonious. Snowflakes are fluttering, and we have a snowball fight in the white campus and have a good time; At the tomato base, when picking with parents and posting photos full of happiness and excitement on the class blog, satisfaction rises in their hearts like an elf.
Please try to smile, live with a smile and live with enthusiasm, because happiness is our own business. As long as we are willing, we can change the remote control in our hands at any time and tune our spiritual perspective to the happy channel. Just like Grandma Yue Lana in Bi Shumin's works, I believe and do my best to give others warmth and touch, and look at the world with warmth!
