Our story Stop 4 Can you always be there for me
This chapter is from Enron's first-person perspective:
I don't know if you've ever heard of the saying that a boy can easily fall in love with a girl who will often play games with him. I didn't believe this sentence in the past, after all, I never seemed to have a boy who would often play games together, except for my childhood sweetheart Lin Jie, who was a special case.
But then for some reason, Sheng Yixuan suddenly appeared in my world, because of a game, a corner of the staircase.
I originally thought that we would just be ordinary netizens who rarely play a game together, but who would have thought that we would find out that we and each other seemed to have a special relationship because of a late-night conversation.
I even saw in him the shadow of my former self, the Enron who was once not favored by everyone. It seems that since that night, the distance between us seems to be a lot closer, a lot, but we are obviously just two strangers who don't know each other.
I remember deeply, that night his emotions seemed to have a little collapse, after all, he was still a junior high school child, maybe he was forced to face the pressure of the high school entrance examination, and I stumbled all the way from my freshman year to my junior year, ready to face a huge turning point in my life for me - the graduate school entrance examination.
That night, I was on the phone for the first time with an unfamiliar guy who stayed up late.
That night, he said
"Of course, I'm really tired, whether it's my parents, or the teacher's expectations of me, I am a little breathless, they always say why a boy should study hotel management, they always think that I am a bad student, a bad boy, in their eyes college is not even a university, do they think I want to do this."
"But they never listened to me, and they didn't even know anything about my preferences. Even when I said it, they didn't listen. ”
At that time, there was always a faint trace of sadness between his words, which made me feel a little distressed, no matter what, he was still just a child.
"You must know that this society is cruel, it keeps telling us that not everything can be said and done, what we have to do is to keep learning from it and continue to grow. This is something that each of us has to go through, I have experienced it, your parents, your teachers have also experienced it. I know you're stressed, but have you ever thought that it's not just you, it's all the people who are about to face all kinds of challenges, including teachers and parents. ”
I don't know if he'll be able to listen to what I'm saying, but that's what I'm going to tell him anyway.
"I'm older than you, two years, that is to say, now I'm a junior, and I'm about to face the graduate school entrance examination and art examination that are hundreds of times more stressful than yours, but I can't give up, because this is the path I chose by myself."
I know deep down that what he needs is not those so-called chicken soup for the soul, what he needs is someone who can listen to him quietly and empathize with him, and for some reason, I am willing to be the one who listens to him, maybe because of my kindness, hehe.
"Yes, I also want to take the art exam! I love singing, I love music, and I love broadcasting! But they looked down on me, they thought I was unproductive, and I really didn't know what to do. I want to transfer the book! ”
For a moment, his words were slightly excited, the excitement of not being recognized.
At the same time, I was stunned, isn't this what I used to be? Once that dream was not favored by everyone, I was scolded for being unproductive, unambitious, not doing business all day long, and thinking crankily, and it was at that moment that I was sure that he was the same me I used to be.
What I want to say next is very long, and I will not only say these words to Sheng Yixuan, but also to all of you.
"If someone looks down on you, you take the time to prove that they misunderstood you, and in the end, they may regret it; Someone hurts you, you just take the time to wait, and one day they will know and even be better to you. Time is the best teacher, and patience is the best companion. ”
"You are who you are, and you don't have to change yourself for anyone's sake. You have to be optimistic and don't envy the happiness that others have. What you thought you didn't have was on the way to come, and what you thought he had was on the way to go. ”
"I know that life may be bad in your eyes now, but if you can train yourself to use positive thinking to solve negative emotions when you encounter every bad thing, then after training several times, you will definitely become more optimistic, and you will not be crushed by setbacks. You have to know, don't think everything is so complicated, the simpler your starting point, the more you will actually gain. ”
"Because when your goal is only 100 meters, but your runway is actually infinitely long, you can run 100 meters and stop, but you don't know that there are hundreds of kilometers to go behind. That is, if you set a goal, you may slack off when you reach that goal, but you don't know how big the world is. ”
"This world is so big that you can't imagine it, and this world absorbs far more than you can in school. Where do those things come from, from the experience accumulated by these people, these predecessors, and these directors, every word he says is helping you, as long as you are willing to put yourself down seriously. ”
I will tell Sheng Yixuan that these are not whims, but these are all made up of bits and pieces that have been learned from idols from life over time. It is these belts that have brought me a lot of motivation, so I will hope that these can also bring Sheng Yixuan more hope.
I don't know if Sheng Yixuan will understand this, but I still hope that she can try to understand, even if she only understands a little, at least in this way, Sheng Yixuan will not be as pessimistic as she is now; At least in this way, Sheng Yixuan will have a goal to strive for.
There was silence, a long silence, so quiet that I thought he was too boring and fell asleep, but just as I was about to hang up the words, I heard a deep voice from him:
"Perhaps, as you said, I need to be patient enough to adapt to the world. A patient person can wait, be strong, face difficulties, and give himself and others room to make mistakes. Patient people know that they don't need to be too quick to judge anything, and they don't have too many emotional ups and downs. ”
"In the past, I was too attached to what others thought of me, which led to excessive emotional ups and downs, but from now on, I will not only be patient with myself, but also with others."
"Maybe I'm really bad now, but I will know how to learn from everyone, if I observe the strengths of the other person, I will find a way to copy them, if I observe the shortcomings of the other person, I will find a way to avoid them, and finally become an object that others can learn from."
I have to say that I am relieved to hear this, at least I didn't stay up late in vain, after all, after talking to him, the time came to three o'clock in the morning. Anyway, I hung up the phone after saying goodnight to Sheng Yixuan, but I couldn't sleep for a long time.
I was lying on the bed, looking at the posters on the wall, and these were also the motivation for me to move forward. Idols do affect their fans, and many people are imitating the behavior of their idols, and their attitude to life, naturally, so do I.
When an idol is more memorable and nostalgic, it will exist in the heart in the future, because when they are in trouble and confused, they will have a lamp, or even a very faint candlelight, they will have a light to rely on, so as not to make them lose their way when they are confused, this is the meaning of idols.
But I still choose to believe that there is no absolutely perfect idol in this world, but there must be absolutely perfect persistence.
"It was you who let me know that exams are not everything, and grades are not a person's level, only by being a person with heart and working hard to be the ideal self is the true king. Thank you and I will keep trying! ”
I said to myself, yes, this sentence again, this is not only an encouragement for myself, but also a kind of insistence on faith, and only in this way will I continue to work hard tomorrow and continue to move forward in the direction of idols!
I think this night should be a sleepless night for Sheng Yixuan, in my opinion, no one has ever told him this with such seriousness as I did, telling him to be patient, to work hard, to prove to everyone, he can, he is not as weak as everyone sees.
I remember that in the early morning after that night, in the haze, I saw a message from him, and the time was five o'clock in the morning:
Yes, I haven't slept yet, and I've thought a lot about it in this hour, thank you for telling me that. Enron, your appearance has completely changed me now, so in just one night, you seem to have an irreplaceable position in my heart, just like a national goddess, and you are also the first person who is willing to calm down and listen to me carefully. Enron, can you always be there for me? Wait for me, okay?
I have to admit that I was stunned when I saw this, all the time? Is there really anyone in this world who can always be by whom's side?
Parents will grow old, friends will eventually have their own lives, lovers? Even lovers will have the first to leave. How can this kind of promise be made easily by being by your side, let alone two strangers who have just met and have never met?
