Stepping into the mountains, weeds are overgrown, rocks are rugged, and snakes and scorpions fight. Every step forward, the mountain becomes steeper and more dangerous. The sharp peaks and blades on the stone cut their hands, and the cold wind mixed with gravel came head-on, which made people sad and unable to move, giving birth to a feeling of helplessness.
At this time, countless inspirational stories and self-motivation quotations began to appear in my mind, and I tried to turn them into the will and motivation to motivate myself to move forward. I think with anticipation that the difficulties are only temporary, and the road will get better and better in the future. However, what is waiting is complete disappointment and frustration. Seeing that the mountain is almost vertical depends entirely on the strength of both hands. This is almost impossible for an ordinary person like me who has not been trained in professional rock climbing skills. I looked at the scars left by stones and thorns on my hands, legs and body, and then looked up at the towering and difficult road ahead. Finally, I chose to give up and go back.
On the way back, I couldn't help thinking a lot. Faced with such difficulties, I don't know if others will know that there are tigers in the mountains, but they will go to Tiger Mountain, or will they shrink back like me.
Life is always faced with choices, and no one can guarantee the correctness of every choice. Opportunities and dangers often coexist, just like climbing a mountain. Although I have the ambition to climb mountains, I lack professional climbing skills and equipment, so my chances of winning in adventure climbing are very small, and I will probably face unexpected risks. Retreat from difficulties can not only protect yourself from returning safely, but also make progress by retreating, constantly sum up experiences and lessons, and wait for the next opportunity that suits you better in accumulation.
Dear book club, if it were you, would you choose to advance despite difficulties or retreat despite difficulties?
