Part 1: Chasing Dreams
Everyone should have their own dream.
Dreams belong to everyone.
It has no distinction, good or bad, high or low.
Some people think that setting a big dream for yourself is too ambitious. Let me add: But if he is down-to-earth and unswervingly set out towards his dream, then the dream will eventually come true.
Some people say: The old man in "The Old Man and the Sea" is very stupid. He fights alone with the shark, but in the end he drags back the fish bones and gets nothing. But I think the old man is a wise man who knows how to chase his dreams. Although he lost the food needed by his body, he gained inexhaustible spiritual food.
Edison had a dream: to invent more practical things to benefit mankind. As a result, his life has a direction, his achievements are great because of it, his life is brilliant because of it, and his name is immortal because of it. Why is he successful? Because he has been chasing his dreams all his life.
Qu Yuan also had a dream: to make his motherland stronger and not be oppressed by Qin. So he came up with this famous saying: "The road is long and long, and I will search up and down." This is not only a portrayal of his noble integrity, but also his courage to pursue his dreams and his determination to realize them.
Most people in the world are mediocre and live a short life, and only a handful of them become great people. Why are people born in the same world, eating the same food, and living in the same era, but their achievements are so different? If you look around, you will find that every great man has a great dream. Is it national liberation?
Is it to make the motherland strong? Is it for the benefit of all mankind? Is it to leave spiritual food for future generations? Or...no matter what it is, every great man fights for his dream and never thinks of giving up. Slowly, they became a generation of great men.
Oh, it turns out that it is so easy to be a great person!
That’s right, it’s that easy.
This is the power of dreams. Chase your dreams and never give up!
The teacher told us that there is a kind of cicada called the eighteen-year cicada. It will live in the moist and dark soil for eighteen years, then break out of the soil, spend a whole summer singing, and finally die silently. I thought: What could allow it to live alone for eighteen years? Finally, I came to the answer: it is a dream, a dream of singing! It was this dream that supported him through a lonely and great life!
Don’t lament that life is short. Pick up the seeds of your dreams, spend your whole life sowing them, and harvest them at the last moment. You will find that your life is actually very exciting and fulfilling!
The joy brought by chasing dreams is immeasurable. This may be the taste of life.
Go! Set off with dreams, set sail with hope... Chapter 2: Chasing Dreams - Thoughts on Reading "Jonathan Seagull"
It's vacation, and I finally have enough time to read. Which one should I choose? I gently stroked the cover of this book and saw the blue sea and sky blending into one, and a seagull was soaring with its wings. "Jonathan Seagull" comes into view with five white italic characters. What kind of story would this be? I couldn't help but turn the pages and read eagerly.
The story begins with an ordinary and insignificant seagull. Jonathan is a young seagull who is not satisfied with the status quo. He felt that life should not be limited to such meaningless things as food, shelter, and fighting with gulls. Therefore, he secretly practiced difficult flying skills at the risk of being exiled for violating the rules of the flock of gulls. As a result, he still failed to escape this fate and was expelled from the flock of gulls.
Although he was alone, it tempered his will and gave him the opportunity to learn more difficult movements. Later, he met two seagulls who could help him enter a higher realm. There, he became a disciple of Elder Gion and learned something more important: he understood that human thoughts are infinite and that people must have pursued. We cannot limit ourselves to being just a small "person". More importantly, you must be clear about your dream, even if it seems illusory.
The story continues to describe Jonathan. He also accepted many disciples and patiently inspired and taught them to let their thoughts transcend the body and reach deep into the soul. He taught them understanding and tolerance, and even tolerated those who The flock of gulls that drove them away. Finally, when all the apprentices had achieved success, the old Jonathan went to another world with a sense of happiness...
The story of the whole book is not long but intriguing. I read it in one sitting. . I think everyone who reads this book will have the same feeling. No matter how old or young you are, whether you are beautiful or ugly, you should have a dream and work hard to pursue it no matter what. Although the road will not be smooth sailing and you will encounter many difficulties and obstacles, as long as you persist and believe in yourself, you will be able to realize your dreams and achieve success.
Right now, we are in the critical period of transition from primary school to junior high school. Everyone is looking forward to entering their ideal middle school. Mathematical Olympiad, English, and composition fill our lives. I can't help but sigh with emotion for many adults. Although they strongly recommend children to read ancient books and world famous works, the purpose is often just to cope with the exam and to get a few more points. Are the books left to us by our predecessors just for memorizing answers? The conclusion is of course not.
Life is inseparable from books, and life is inseparable from dreams! I wish I had more time to read and think! Let us be like Jonathan the seagull and let go of our bodies and minds to chase our dreams. Chapter Three: Chasing Dreams
Sow dreams, and there is hope even if there is no road.
——Inscription
The ideal is a flower. Sowing seeds requires us to water them with sweat. The ideal is a tree. Planting seedlings requires us to care for them with patience. One day , the flowers will bloom and the trees will grow.
Ideal is the source of life; ideal is the driving force for progress; ideal is the peak season of spring and summer. With ideals, life has goals; with goals, life has value. For this, you will work hard and persevere to the end. However, if there is no dream in life, it is destined to be ordinary and busy for life. We must dare to dream and never doubt our abilities. Everyone has endless abilities, but they are asleep, waiting for dreams to awaken them. they. There is nothing impossible in the world, only unimaginable things. Think things that others dare not think of, do things that others dare not do, and one day, your beautiful dreams will become reality.
The world-famous French science fiction writer-Verne. What a setback he suffered in order to publish his first work! In the winter of 1863, when Verne received the fifteenth rejection, he was furious and prepared to burn the manuscripts. His wife was full of comfort and encouraged him to try again. This time, he did not fail and signed a 20-year contract with this publishing house.
Without the persuasion of his wife and the courage to try again, we might not have been able to read those popular science fiction stories written by Verne, and mankind would have lost an extremely precious spiritual wealth.
On the road of life, we will have one goal after another, and we will encounter various setbacks on the road to realizing our ideals. If we want to turn our dreams into reality, we should use perseverance as our friend, endurance as our brother, and hope as our guardian. We must strengthen our beliefs, never give up until the last moment, and always believe that success is at the next crossroads. .
Everyone has had very beautiful and great ideals. Never give up easily just because you cannot get the understanding and support of others for a while. No one can predict our future. Tomorrow is created by ourselves. Hold on to our dreams and work towards it, and luck will come to us one day.
Let us face the rising sun, let go and chase it, and create a world of our own under the blue sky! ! Chapter 4: Dreams need to be chased
Time flies and the years leave no trace. In a blink of an eye, I have become a junior high school student. Looking back on my childhood, I once had countless beautiful dreams, but they were gradually forgotten step by step as I grew up...
When I was a child, I loved watching gun fight movies and Police drama. The policemen inside all wore body armor, carried sniper rifles, and had several grenades strapped to their waists. Gradually, as time went by, I began to have a soft spot for this, and the tall and mighty image of the police was deeply burned into my mind.
When I grew up a little, when I understood the meaning of the phrase "dream", I determined to be a policeman who could eliminate violence and bring peace to the people when I grew up. You know, in my mind at that time, I was the kind of person who dances with guns and sticks. Not to mention how handsome he is! From then on, I had an extra gadget in my hand - a gun. Every day I hold this "gun" and imitate the characters in the movie, shooting "tap-tap-tap". I hope that one day this so-called gadget in my hand can be turned into a real gun, and I also hope that one day I can be able to charge into battle with a submachine gun and defend the territory of the motherland. But gradually, I felt that the police profession was too dangerous. If I happened to encounter a vicious gangster, I might pay for my precious life at any time.
When I entered elementary school, my dream changed for the first time in the history of my life. I began to admire the sacred profession of teachers, and when I grew up, I also began to hope to be a primary school teacher. Because the book says that teachers are engineers of the human soul; they are ladders that help students climb the peak of knowledge; they are spring silkworms who contribute selflessly like spring silkworms. Teachers can stand on a three-foot podium and hand over countless knowledge to students, so that the young hearts can be nourished by the first drop of spring rain. But later I felt that the job of a teacher is quite hard. It takes more than half of my time just to correct homework every day, and then I have to prepare lessons. The work is very cumbersome.
When I was eight or nine years old, my tonsils became more frequent due to my gluttony, and I started going to the hospital again and again for injections and medicine. So, another idea came to my mind - I want to be a doctor when I grow up, so that if I get sick in the future, I can treat myself and save a lot of money. However, when I read articles about medical accidents, I felt disheartened. At that time, I felt that the profession of a doctor also has a lot of risks. Once a mistake is made and a medical accident occurs, the cost will be huge. The price is a precious life. Moreover, I think that there are too many, difficult and complicated courses that a doctor has to learn. The name of every bone in the human body, the muscles and organs of every part must be firmly memorized, and no mistakes can be made.
As I got older, I began to like watching science TV programs, so I started to be exposed to the career of a host again and again. So, I became obsessed with the feeling of standing in front of the camera and talking endlessly. But then I was afraid that my memory would be bad. I would stand in front of the camera and my mouth would get stuck as soon as I opened it. That kind of embarrassing situation would not be pleasant.
Gradually, as I grow up, my knowledge becomes wider and wider, and I have more and more dreams. I don’t know where to develop. Finally one day, when I was reading a book, I saw such a story:
More than a hundred years ago, a poor shepherd took his two young sons to make a living by herding sheep for others. One day, they drove their sheep to a hillside. A group of wild geese flew over their heads and quickly disappeared into the distance. The shepherd's youngest son asked his father: "Where are the wild geese going to fly?" The shepherd said: "They are going to a warm place to settle down and spend the cold winter." The eldest son blinked his eyes and said enviously: " If only I could fly like a wild goose. "The younger son also said, "It would be great if I could be a flying wild goose! Then I could fly to heaven and find our mother." < /p>
When the shepherd heard this, he lowered his head and was silent for a while, and then said to his two sons: "As long as you have faith, you can fly." The two sons quickly began to experiment and waved their arms vigorously. , but they couldn't fly, so they looked at their father with suspicion. The shepherd said, "Let me fly to show you." So he opened his arms and waved them hard, but he still couldn't fly. However, the shepherd still said with certainty: "I can't fly because I am too old. And you are still young. As long as you keep working hard, you will be able to fly in the future and go where you want to go." The two sons firmly believed in each other. I remember my father's words and have been working hard for this dream. Finally, on December 17, 1903, when the elder brother was thirty-six years old and the younger brother was thirty-two years old, the two of them succeeded in flying because they successfully invented the airplane.
These two men are the Wright Brothers of the United States.
From then on, I started to study hard, because the prerequisite for realizing my dream is to study hard.
And I also firmly believe that as long as you keep working hard and persisting, everyone's dream will eventually come true.
From childhood to adulthood, dreams keep changing. Whenever dreams change, it means that our knowledge has increased, our thinking has improved, and our understanding of society has also changed. The change of dreams must be experienced countless times in our life. But remember, we can never stop pursuing our dreams!
