It seems that listening to articles has become a must-do every day. I heard a very poignant article last night. That title is called "After 30, there is no way out in life." I have heard it over and over again.

“The age of 30 is the age when a person slowly learns to compromise, and it is also the age when a person gradually becomes accustomed to being unbearable.” Compromise for what? Unbearable for what? When you are 30 years old, you can no longer play around like you did in your teens and twenties; when you are 30 years old, you have parents and children, and you should take responsibility for your family; when you are 30 years old, your ability to make money means that you are The foothold of this society; when you are 30 years old, you have to hold back your tears and do what you should do even if it hurts. Even if you are pretending to be strong, you still have to bear all the burdens of this age.

I am only a teenager, why should I worry so much? Maybe it’s not something I should read at my age, but if I wait until I’m in my twenties to read this article, I will regret it and regret why I didn’t know these truths earlier. I am only a teenager now. I still have time to work hard. I can still work hard for my dreams without having no way out like them.

Just because I am only a teenager, just because I don’t want to live a life like theirs, just because I still have time to realize my dreams...

I have thought about myself In my future life, what I want is to travel around the world, do the things I want to do, love the people I want to love, learn the knowledge I want to learn, and eat what I like. I'm afraid of being like that single mother who slapped her child because she dropped five yuan; I'm afraid that I will live in a miserable state just to make a living; I'm afraid that I will turn into a greasy "middle-aged girl" in front of my friends. No, that's not the life I want.

I have been thinking about what it will be like to work after I graduate and live a comfortable life with a stable salary? Maybe it is, maybe not. But my ambition is so big, I would feel sorry for myself if I didn’t give it a try.

In that article, when Xiao Jia’s parents came to see him, they stood outside his house and started crying. His parents wanted him to go home and felt it was too unfair for him to stay in Beijing, but Xiao Jia still insisted on staying. He said that there is no favor in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou but there are opportunities. What a realistic statement. He knew that when he returned to his hometown, he might not even have a monthly salary of 5,000 yuan. He wants his parents to live a good life, so how can he do it if he doesn't fight for it?

Just like when we were children, we all told our friends about our dreams, but when we grow up, how many of us still remember our original intentions? How many people dare to realize their dreams?

If we all clearly know what we want, then we know the source of desire; if we clearly know what we don’t want, we know the boundaries of desire.

Yang Jiang once said, "The world belongs to you and has nothing to do with others." None of us should be defined. Our life, the path we want to take, the choice is all in our own hands.

So I am not content with the status quo. I want to learn more knowledge and skills and make more money. I don’t want to stay here peacefully for the rest of my life. It might be a pity if I don’t try out during the best years of my life.

We all want to be the version of ourselves we most want to be. It may be difficult and bumpy on the way to realization, but please don't give up, okay? Because that will be the path to success. I believe that in the future you will thank yourself for working hard now.
