Chapter 2 Strive for your dreams

It is said that there is an endless road in life, at first I didn't believe it, there is no endless road in the world, until many years later, I believed. When you're done walking one path, there will be the next one waiting for you ahead. It's like when you were a child, you want to know what is on the other side of the mountain, and when others tell you that it is still a mountain, you will not believe it, when you climb up, the other side of the mountain is still a mountain, not the sea in your imagination.

At that time, I studied art for my dream. Actually, at that time, I didn't know what my dream was, and I was always looking for it. The only idea is to go to high school, I love to read, and I can see it as the whole of life. At that time, the conditions at home were not very good, and I was always lying on the salary, which had a particularly significant impact on me.

"You haven't practiced well in books, what are you good at!" my dad said so, but he still let me learn. At that time, the tuition fee for each session was more than 100 yuan. At that time, it was three months of food expenses. Now, it's nothing. I could only bite the bullet and say, "I like to learn this, and many people have participated, so I believe that I can learn it well." "In the past few years, I have been practicing the basic skills hard, it can be said that I have practiced three summers in summer and three dogs in winter, and I have never stopped in the future. That's when I started practicing calligraphy, and I've been with me ever since. In the future, I don't think I will let go easily, the dream of life lies in unremitting struggle.

At that time, I met Lin S, and he was a very good friend, although he didn't like to read much. In the past few years, I have become a good buddy, I have been to his house once, and the family background is very good. It's not very far from the city, and many of the classmates in the class are from the village. However, friendship doesn't seem to be a big deal! Maybe it's too familiar, and people often can't understand it at that time. The direction established at that time was different, so that the subsequent path was also different. There is no right or wrong choice, but the right time, do the right thing, and there will be no regrets.

At that time, I had always loved poetry and memorized many poems. There are ancient poets, such as Li Bai, Du Fu, Meng Haoran, Wang Wei, and other Song Dynasty words such as Su Shi, Xin Qiji, Li Qingzhao, etc., and modern poets have Dai Wangshu, Xu Zhimo, Shu Ting and other poems. I was impressed by the mood created by their poetry. The poems I have created have always moved closer to this direction, pursuing the unity of personality and artistic conception. Every poem must have a famous sentence in order to meet its own requirements. Inject your own inspiration and emotion into the poem, and the poem will be full. Wang Guowei, a master of Chinese culture, said: "When I look at things, everything has my subjective color." This is also the expression of one's own emotions, so that the reader can be moved from the text. It is said that life is boring, and you have to withstand the test of ordinary life. The pursuit of life is to live your ideal life. Spring goes to autumn, the days go by, and I've been trying to find my own way. At that time, there were not many people who loved poetry writing, and they did not think about making a career out of it. In society, it is difficult to find a job with poetry as a companion. This also has something to do with the personality and outstanding thinking that he has. In a school, there are only a few. The aforementioned Brother Kai, who is also a capable person, is still insisting on writing until now, and this brother has not been in touch for many years!

Writing is also one of the ideals that I have never given up. There are so many things you want to do, it's hard to focus on one thing and keep it all in one. Tai Chi master Yang Luchan said when he was young: "All my life, I only do one thing, and that is to practice boxing. In the end, he realized his ideals, mainly because he was in the right direction and his hobbies were feasible, which prompted him to be famous at that time. In fact, practicing calligraphy helps to improve one's concentration, hands, eyes, and brain are one, and the spirit is highly concentrated, so that you can write the words you want. Every word written is self-cultivation, every stroke is an emotional outpouring, and every stroke is a catharsis of thinking. One flower, one grass, one world, one sand and one leaf Bodhi. Many things in life come from enlightenment, and when we realize it, we will understand it! It is certainly feasible to be knowledgeable and talented, and to have ability, but it is not good to be knowledgeable but not refined. Only then did he specialize in the later art industry.

In fact, I am very grateful to the teacher who enlightened me at that time, and the practice of literature needs to accompany people for a lifetime. Learning is a process of continuous improvement. The road of life, with the guidance of the dawn, the general direction has not changed, and the ideal can be realized in the future, and I believe that I can do it.

Written to the people who walk in the wind and rain and continue to struggle!
