I met him at a party organized by a friend. When my friend introduced him to us, he turned to look at me and said, hey, the engineer of the human soul, has he ever worked with you? As the saying goes, "people don't kiss." So, I began to chat with him unconsciously.
I learned that he used to be a teacher, with more than ten years of teaching experience, extremely responsible attitude and excellent teaching results. At that time, he won many awards and even taught in a well-known private school in Hunan Province for several years. But now he is in the clothing industry, so to speak, he chose a career that has nothing to do with teaching.
Asked why he didn't teach, he said: I chose not to teach at that time, not as deep as others said. Why don't I want to do a job that can be seen at a glance? I never thought about not teaching at that time, just because my family was in special financial difficulties, and a friend just asked me to help him. In the long run, I think I earn more money. Due to the pressure of survival, bread overcomes everything. Fortunately, I ended my teaching career and came out to make a living.
"Are you still willing to come back to teach?" I asked a question that I was concerned about, and it looked a bit silly.
He paused a little and said that when he was running around for many years and was extremely tired, he sometimes thought, why not just live a life with a regular schedule and a quiet life? But it seems that my heart yearns for such a hard life, and I don't know what will happen in the future. This life is full of expectation and fighting spirit. Maybe I still like to toss it into my bones. ! He smiled and then said: I think so now, even if I fail, I won't regret it, because when I get old, I will remember the road I have traveled, and I won't feel sorry for it. Because I have been working hard, struggling, struggling, struggling all my life. ...
Look at him calmly and calmly. He is enthusiastic. Look at him with white hair and shining eyes. I can't help but think of a sentence-there is no happiness that is not old, and there is no time that is not old. Don't let yourself be idle when you can toss. Losing youth is not terrible, but losing a brave heart that loves life!
Two? she
Some people say that the business field is a war without smoke, which allows you to gallop at will! The profession of teacher is too dull, even if you toss and turn, you can't afford to turn too many waves. I usually have such an idea, so I let myself live a mediocre life and lead a muddled life. Occasionally, the spiritual deeds of famous teachers will arouse a layer of ripples in our hearts, but after all, we feel that they are too far away from us, and their aura makes us unattainable, so the ripples will soon become calm and even die.
But this year, I came into contact with a teacher who filled me with positive energy, and I felt that my quiet life was suddenly full of vitality. Is she? Miss Zhang Aimin. I had the privilege of listening to her two public classes. In class, her beautiful voice, persuasive language, dignified and elegant temperament, kind and kind talk, flowing connection, wonderful and ingenious introduction ... make me feel that Chinese class and composition teaching can be so wonderful and charming. After coming back, people are still worried and full of thoughts. Although I have never met her, I have added her WeChat, and I can see her famous educational sayings or sentiments almost every day and feel her persistence. I got to know the Yuyuanfang led by her, and I felt her seriousness and responsibility when I saw her constantly inspiring students. Pay more attention to her, read every article in the class carefully, see the letters she wrote to every child in the class on their birthdays, and feel her love more …
No one has not experienced hardships and setbacks. I know that she has experienced the bottleneck of career development, the failure of professional title evaluation, and the misunderstanding of leading colleagues ... In many such cases, she did not choose to sink, just like Gu Cheng's poem "The night gave me black eyes, but I used it to find light."
She chose to calm down, let the pain go with the wind, don't blame others, don't treat others badly, read books on Chinese subjectivity, read books on class management, read books on educational psychology, and even philosophical works, so that she can stand loneliness and keep it. Under the lonely lamp, in the dark, in a secluded place, at dawn, she is so busy, writing teaching reflections, teaching essays and teaching. Is she doing this? Look at herself, she has brought countless honors. Of course, loving reading, teaching and students is her heart, and honor is only a by-product, but the achievement of honor is a proof of her continuous efforts.
She also tortured the members of Yuyuanfang led by her and urged them to study online and offline. Her tossing has made more and more people who know her love and worship her. Two days ago, I saw someone in the group say, Teacher Zhang, you are the sun, radiant and charming. I will laugh when I see this sentence, because this is how I feel about her.
Yes, the so-called life is actually a process of constant tossing and continuous efforts. Tossing yourself and others, when to toss out a wonderful one, this is called life! I think this sentence is very suitable for Mr. Zhang Aimin.

Inspired by this positive energy spirit, I have also found time to write some words these days. It is a great honor that two articles were read and published by the editors of Henan Station and Contemporary Writing, respectively. Although the article is poorly written and naive, I am glad to see that my efforts have been recognized and my ideas can be shared with more people. In addition to my joy, a colleague asked me: Is your published article useful for promotion? I replied: I don't think so, so is there a fee? No, either. Why is it nameless and unprofitable? Colleagues left with a disdainful face.
I was a little sad at first, but then I was relieved.
Because I thought of the famous experiment of boiling frogs in warm water.
When the researchers put the frog in a container filled with cold water, they slowly heated it. Frogs began to swim leisurely in the water because of the comfort of the water temperature, until they found that they could not bear the high temperature, and they were overwhelmed and burned to death by living hot water.
The scientist put another frog into boiling water. The frog couldn't stand the sudden high temperature stimulation, and immediately struggled to jump out of the boiling water and successfully escaped.
We can get many truths from this story, and I think one of them is:
Always pay attention, study more and be alert, because an overly comfortable environment often contains danger, which will often make you lose your fighting spirit and passion. To change all this, we must keep learning and thinking, in other words, only by tossing can we innovate!
If you want to live a meaningful life, you are very tired. To overcome their inertia, to withstand the slander of others! ..... May we all be like frogs in hot water, tossing and turning in the water and keeping our enthusiasm for life. This is the state that life should have.
