Santiago - An old man fishing alone on the bay has not caught a fish for eighty-four days. The only child who accompanied him had to go to another big ship. But he never gave up and still sailed the ship to the far side of the sea again, even though it was full of dangers. After catching the big fish, the old man drifted with the big fish and waited patiently for the opportunity. The wait was long and painful. The old man endured hunger, thirst, and even injuries, but he was still waiting patiently at this moment. He was lonely, fighting against the sea alone. He often thought of his child and always murmured to himself: I wish the child was here. Suffering and pain struck again and again, but the old man defeated himself with faith. Forbearance, he endured everything. Santiago written by Hemingway shows us how strong human endurance is. When I finally caught the big fish, I thought the story would end there. However, this is just the beginning. When sharks attacked again and again, the old man used his fork to fight the sharks. When he lost his fork, the old man used his knife. When the old man lost these weapons, he used sticks, paddles, and all available weapons to fight the sharks. At no time did he give up. Although in the end, what the old man brought back to the coast was only the remains of a big fish, the old man was victorious in the end. People are not born to be defeated. A person can be destroyed, but he cannot be defeated. Everyone yearns for success, but the road to success is bumpy and arduous. We don't get to choose where we come from. As Gates said: Life is unfair, you just have to accept it. How much courage and strength it takes for people to change their origins. Society, like the sea described by Hemingway, is full of crises. Only those with strong willpower can have the courage to pursue their dreams. Regardless of the outcome, I believe he will be as happy as Santiago. I believe he will live a great life like Santiago.
