Reflections after reading "The Biography of Famous People"

I was deeply moved after reading "The Biography of Famous People" by Romain Rolland. Romain Rolland is a famous French writer in the 20th century. His works are powerful spiritual pillars for people. "Celebrity Biography" tells the story of Beethoven, Michelangelo and Tolstoy. They experienced various hardships but did not give in to fate. They still fought unyieldingly at the last second of their lives and finally became Great man. This also tells us a truth: difficulties and setbacks are the best training for destiny and life!

Among these three great men, Beethoven left the deepest impression on me. He has a burning passion for music and has created many excellent works. His works are profound, magnificent and full of fantasy. But disaster still befell him mercilessly. In 1802, he realized that his hearing impairment was incurable and would soon worsen. That means he may never be able to create again! What a blow! But he was able to fight against fate tenaciously, which may be the reason why he was able to write so many immortal works in his later period. This spirit of never compromising on life and destiny is what we should learn from. This great and unyielding soul brings light to the dark world and hope to life.

Reading Beethoven’s story reminded me of Helen Keller, a person with the same strong perseverance. Her life was also very unfortunate. A serious illness in her childhood turned her into a little girl who was blind, deaf and mute. In her world, there is no color, no sound, and no way to express her thoughts.

But the unfair fate did not make her lose hope. She was eager to understand everything, so she redoubled her efforts and eventually became one of the most influential figures in the 19th century.

Beethoven and Helen Keller encountered different hardships in life, but they had the same spirit - never surrender to fate! This not only makes me admire but also makes me think deeply. As a middle school student in the 21st century, the competition in society has become more intense. We have more and more homework, and the difficulties in learning have also increased. Do we also need this kind of spirit when facing many difficulties and pressures? yes! When we encounter difficulties or when our academic performance declines, let us "open our eyes again through the light of Beethoven."

"Use firm belief to face setbacks, and use tenacious perseverance to realize your ideals
