Chapter 19: A Reminder of Love

Love's Reminder 2011.9.5

My dear children,

Today is your first day of junior high school life, and you must have a little excitement and some anticipation. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 infoNew campus, new faces, new ways of teaching, maybe you like it, maybe you don't quite adapt to it yet. You are facing the same problems that your parents faced more than 20 years ago, and they are the same that every student has to face. The three years of junior high school life are the best three years of my life, and they are also the most confusing three years. Did you know that in the past three years, you will discuss the meaning of life with your teachers and classmates and learn to think? You'll know why the lights come on and how your favorite car engine works; You will sing in English to express your emotions; You'll also know what the air we breathe is made of and how it's made. You will learn about the stages and transformations that human history has gone through; You'll also gain a deeper understanding of your own anatomy。。。。。。 All this knowledge will be mastered slowly through the teacher's teaching, and your mother believes that you are a smart child. What Mom wants to tell you is not to teach you how to learn, but the following ordinary and ordinary truths.

1. Be a kind person. When I was young, my mother always handed you money and told you to give it to the old people who were begging. When I take you to the post office to send clothes or books to the disaster area, you are sometimes impatient and feel that you are delaying your playtime. My children, our ability is limited and what we do is insignificant, but if everyone comes to do a little bit and gather their armpits into a fur, we will give great care and help to those in need. "Don't be small and don't do anything", you know the meaning of this sentence, right? You've written essays for injured kittens and been praised by teachers, and you've discussed with your mom for a bullied child in your class, who knows that you are kind by nature, but mom wants you to do this kindness as a regular thing instead of doing it willfully. For example, if a classmate needs help, your mother wants you to help you instead of just exclaiming or laughing. I hope you will do every little good deed as an important thing.

2. Be a strong and brave person. You will encounter a lot of difficulties in these three years, and you will also encounter a lot of problems in your studies, and this is only a small part of all the setbacks in your life, and this society requires boys to take on more responsibilities, and you have to be strong and brave to face them. Since the age of three, we have taken you to travel and climb mountains, in order to cultivate your strong and brave character. When you were five years old, you had two children in the neighborhood arguing, and the father of one of the children came to help, and you were not afraid to argue with your uncle about the facts. We see through the window all your handling of this and are truly proud of you. Mom hopes that you will extend this nature of pursuing the truth without fear of power to your studies and life, and eliminate every problem as a powerful enemy, and don't give up easily. Maybe you will fail once, twice or even many times, don't be afraid, it is only temporary, as long as you persevere, eventually you will overcome the difficulties.

3. Take responsibility and dare to admit mistakes. Remember when you were seven years old? You put fireworks on the lid of a car in the neighborhood and set it on fire, and the paint on the lid is baked, and you freak out. But instead of scolding you, we took you and your uncle to the repair shop to deal with it. You were involved in the whole process of compensation and repair, and you have never made such a mistake again. I don't think you would have been impressed if I had just scolded you at the time. We are glad that we did not let you avoid or protect you after making a mistake, and we did not blindly scold, but took you to solve the problem. When I was in the fourth grade of elementary school, a classmate in your class stole a classmate's mobile phone, and you solved the problem very smartly, without hurting the classmate's face, and making him admit his mistake. Kid, you handled it very well. Everyone can make mistakes in their lives, and it doesn't matter, the key is to have the courage to take responsibility, recognize the mistake and correct it. Mom hopes that you will always be like this on the road of life in the future, do not avoid mistakes, and have the courage to correct mistakes.

Fourth, reasonable design time. The number of subjects in junior high school has increased, and the burden of learning has become heavier. When I was in elementary school, my mom made fun of you for being a snail because you were always slow, always finishing your homework on Sunday night, always starting your homework when you had had enough, and never seemed to be in a hurry. Children, the time of the day is very limited, you have to arrange your time reasonably and allocate your time reasonably. It's like a designer cutting clothes, which piece of fabric is used for sleeves, which piece is used for collars, and how big the cut size must be known and confident. Time will never increase, and homework will slowly increase, you can only complete all your homework by speeding up, otherwise you will form a habit of procrastinating, slowly piling up more and more, accumulating over time, your homework will no longer be able to drag off, and you will really become a snail. People's energy is limited, listening to TV while doing homework, half-hearted people who are not focused on learning anything well, which one of the accomplished people do not focus on one thing for many years? Mom wants you to fix this bad habit, okay?

5. Be a person who has ideals and contributes to society. Child, do you understand the purpose of learning? Studying is not just for exams, nor for having a good job and a good income in the future, and studying is not for the sake of parents. Learning should be for one's own ideals, for the society, and for the sake of becoming a person who can make a difference. You've always dreamed of being a Schumacher-like racing driver, so who would give you a car for no reason, kid? A true racing driver is a person with strong perseverance, not only a wealth of professional knowledge, but also a knowledge of geography and physics, because he has to deal with bad car accidents and all kinds of bad geographical environments at any time. When the body is injured, you have to use medical knowledge to save yourself urgently. Racers should also be well aware of the cultures of each country, let alone be proficient in foreign languages. You have an ideal, and now you have to be fully prepared to realize it. If you just want to do it, it can only become a dream forever. Mom doesn't expect you to "study for the rise of China" as Premier Zhou proposed in middle school, but Mom hopes that you will study hard and become a person who contributes to society when you grow up. Everyone will live a simple life, but you must live a worthwhile and dignified life to be worthy of the society's upbringing. Think about it, what can you give back to society?

My child, my mother's words of advice are endless, and my mother's love for you will last a lifetime, but my mother can't accompany you to old age. Your mom will write you a letter every year on your birthday (this year this letter was written in advance), hoping that you will always feel the love and care of your mother. When you grow up, whether you become a towering tree or a small flower on the side of the road, Mom hopes that you will always be a kind and brave person, honest and responsible, and with ideals.

Go hard, come on!

Hug you tightly, my child

Love your mom forever
