Once upon a time there was a big, ugly duck who was bullied by everyone. After experiencing wandering again and again, he finally became a swan. Yes, this fairy tale is "The Ugly Duckling". After studying "The Ugly Duckling", I have always had a question: The ugly duckling finally left the farmhouse, so what does leaving this farmhouse mean to the ugly duckling?

I think there are three meanings. The first is out of his comfort zone, the second is that his ideals have grown up, and the third is understanding the mediocrity of the world

First of all, he is out of his comfort zone. You must know that the ugly duckling likes to rely on his mother and his brothers and sisters before he is new. Although he is ugly, no one likes to be with him. But dependence still exists, but since arriving at the farmhouse, he knows that he cannot rely on others and can only rely on himself. You suggest that he learn to lay eggs or howl or make sparks, but the ugly duckling, he doesn't want to sit around or do any of these meaningless things. So he chose to leave, leave his comfort zone, and go out into the wider world.

Secondly, he has his own ideals. The ugly duckling didn't have any ideals before. He just wanted to live as an ordinary person like other ducks. But obviously, this is not going to happen. As a swan, he should have his own ideals. Maybe the ideal is not so clearly highlighted at the moment, but the ugly duckling's ideal has already sprouted. He wants to be himself, not a mediocre person.

? Finally, when he left, he understood the mediocrity of the world. The people living in the farmhouse are ordinary people, mediocre people who have no ideals and just stay in their comfort zone all day long. He clearly understood all kinds of things about worldly people. So much so that you try to avoid such people as much as possible during your subsequent travels, and don't let worldly people affect your mentality and ambitions. Align yourself with your ideals and climb to the top. Avoid the hens and look for the swans. The swan is noble and beautiful, he is outstanding and elegant. Other animals are short-sighted and mediocre.

? The Ugly Duckling is a growth story, and the Ugly Duckling leaving the farmhouse is the most important turning point in The Ugly Duckling. From then on the ugly duckling got on the right track. In our daily life, you may be an "ugly duckling" or a "swan". Before, I always stayed in my comfort zone and refused to extricate myself. However, after reading this story, I regained my confidence, had my own ideals, and worked hard for them. Stay away from the vulgar and approach the noble and elegant. This is what is said in the saying: "If you are close to vermillion, you will be red; if you are close to ink, you will be black."

? The above is the symbolic meaning of the ugly duckling leaving the farmhouse.
