"Three Talents of Filial Piety" records: "The filial piety of the husband, the classics of heaven, the meaning of the earth, and the trip of people."
With the development of the times, high education and high character seem to be out of proportion. Many people with higher education often make mistakes when facing their parents. This makes us have to reflect, is there something wrong with our education? Is it just focusing on instilling knowledge into students and ignoring moral education? Faced with this situation, people can't help thinking of the child named Liu. In 2008, he went to college with a crazy mother on his back. What is the current situation?
First, Liu comes from a small mountain village.
Liu was born in a small mountain village in Guizhou, and his family was very difficult. He lived a very hard life when he was young. At the age of 4, my father died unfortunately, and my brothers and sisters left for various reasons. My mother can't accept the fact that there are only two people left at home. She stayed in Lacrimosa all day for a long time, and she suffered from mild mental illness. Faced with such a family, Liu Yiran shouldered the burden of the family, when he was only 10 years old.
Faced with such an unfair fate, Liu couldn't figure out why if he wanted to break his head. He only knows how to read, and thinks that he can understand these things as long as he has read enough books. Since primary school, Liu's grades have been among the best in his class, and finally he was admitted to a good local middle school. However, due to the poverty of his family, he can't pay the tuition of middle school. Everything comes to him who waits, and things have turned around. Because of his excellent academic performance, the school didn't charge him tuition.
Three years later, Liu was admitted to a local high school with excellent results, but this high school is located in the county. This means that he will move to the county town in the future, but his mother is unable to take care of herself because of mental illness. Who will take care of his mother if he moves to the county? This is what Liu was thinking at that time. He was even advised to go out to work and stop studying.
Liu didn't listen to them at all, because he knew that even if he went out to work, his mother would still be left alone. Only by studying and going to college can we change our destiny and really solve this problem.
Second, the mother and son in the "pigsty"
The total assets of the Liu family are only 600 yuan, who earned it by working in the summer. This little money is not enough to live in the village. In desperation, Liu had to rent a pigsty. Although he doesn't want his mother to live in a pigsty, he is only allowed to do so economically. Although it was only a pigsty, Liu cleaned the pigsty and covered it with a plastic sheet. Liu looked at the pigsty in front of him and remembered his shabby hut. He vowed silently in his heart that he must change all this.
Liu is very careful when he is studying at school. After school, he went back to the pigsty to take care of his mother. Whenever he has free time, he goes out to do odd jobs to earn some living expenses. This long-term life has made Liu extremely thin, and the handsome seven-foot man actually weighs only 80 pounds. For him at that time, the only thing that could support him in his heart was to change his destiny through education.
However, fate once again mocked him. On the eve of the college entrance examination, Liu fell ill because of long-term hard study, and his college entrance examination results were extremely unsatisfactory. When he got the report card of the college entrance examination, Liu's hand was shaking and his face was covered with tears. He knew that his dream was shattered. After crying for a few days, Liu Xiuxian looked at her sick mother and made a cruel decision to repeat. But economic problems have been bothering him, and finally he had to kneel on the ground and ask the headmaster to give him a chance to repeat his studies.
Facing the second chance, Liu doubly cherished it and was finally admitted to a university in Shandong with excellent results. But for Liu, it's time to choose his destiny again. Is it for your future, desperate to go to college in Shandong, or for your mother to stay at home? Liu didn't hesitate in this matter, and she was determined to go to school with her mother.
Third, take mom to college together.
But Guizhou is so far away from Shandong. During this thousand-mile trip, Liu's deeds have also attracted public attention, and caring people from the government and society have extended a helping hand to him. With the help of all parties, Li finally came to Shandong with his mother.
When he was in college, Liu finally didn't have to be huddled in a pigsty with his mother. Although the room they live in is not big, they feel at home, which he likes very much. Liu went to college and still insisted on work-study programs. Part of the money earned was used to improve his and his mother's life, and the other part was sent back to his hometown by him.
Liu's money was not sent to his relatives in his hometown, but to two other poor children. These two children are very similar to his experience. Both of them can't continue their studies because their families are poor. Liu was very sad when he learned the news. He didn't want to be walked again, so he sent part of his meager living expenses back to his hometown. He hopes to see these two children go out of the mountains and change their destiny through reading.
After graduating from college, many enterprises extended an olive branch to Liu. But he didn't accept any invitation, but returned to his hometown to be a teacher. He hopes to use his own practical actions to change the children in the depths of the mountains who can't continue their dreams of studying because of economic reasons.
Later, when Liu was teaching in his hometown, he found that many families did not attach importance to reading. They always think that it is enough for boys to go out to work when they grow up, and it is enough for girls to find a good family to marry when they grow up. Under this concept, a large number of students in his class dropped out of school. After learning this, Liu personally visited these parents and told them that education changed their fate, and finally persuaded all the children who dropped out of school to come back.
Looking at these children who dropped out of school, Liu Ye was filled with emotion. Although he doesn't know how many of these children can successfully enter the university, he knows that reading is their best way out.
Conclusion:
After several decades, Liu Ye has become the headmaster of a middle school, and is fulfilling his original promise: to do something for his hometown. Many people once laughed at him and thought he was stupid, so he gave up the superior life in the city and went back to his hometown to engage in education. However, Liu has always laughed off this view. He doesn't care what others say, and has been devoted to education.
In today's impetuous, we should learn from Liu. Facing the miserable life, we have no choice to escape or give up, but face the reality firmly and create a desired tomorrow with our hands.
