Chapter 203: Reasons for Fall
Originally, this was a letter that should have been written a long time ago, and there were many things that should have been said, but I didn't write it, I didn't say it. It's not that you don't want to, but I know you hate an empty preacher so much. So, I'm waiting, waiting for you to experience life for yourselves, waiting for you to feel from life, waiting for your own reflection on your attitude towards life. It's just a matter of time, and when the semester is over, when you start a new semester, I think, this letter can be written, these words can be said, I believe that you should have some kind of feeling that I share, and your thoughts should be able to reach a kind of depth.
I still remember that at the graduation ceremony of the university, ** said a sentence when talking about the feelings of college life: "There are two kinds of people in the university: one is talent, and the other is scum." So those of you who have spent some time in college, I would like to ask: are you a talent or a scumbag? If I'm not mistaken, you'll be able to answer: I'm neither a talent nor a scumbag, I'm somewhere in between. If so, I think: you are degrading to scum. Do you think it's extreme? On this issue, we need to think about it to the extreme. In the semester you have passed, do you have a lot of time at a loss, a lot of time spent in the dormitory bed, a lot of time spent chatting on QQ, a lot of time spent fighting in online games? Another semester has passed, and I suddenly realize that I have not listened carefully to a few classes, although the classes for you are all at the level of lecturer or above; I suddenly realized that I hadn't read a few books seriously, even though there were a lot of books in your university library; Suddenly I found myself not learning, although there was a lot to learn in college. Don't say that you don't understand the class, don't say that the teacher doesn't care, don't say that you're not interested in the major, don't say that the school is too bad, you don't need a reason for depravity, you just need an excuse.
If I'm not mistaken, your annual tuition fee is more than 4,000 yuan, plus your living expenses and other expenses, most of them can reach more than seven or eight thousand???
Most of you are from rural areas, or small business families, not many of you have tens of thousands of family wealth, and every penny you use now is hard-earned money earned by your parents, or even borrowed money from everywhere, which contains incomparable hardships and love for you. On their old faces, scarred by time, there is a pair of eyes full of hope for you, those eyes that are cloudy and even a little blurry.
Hope can turn into disappointment, and disappointment can turn into despair, but who is the decider of this change?
Responsibility is not given to you by others, but is determined by your own mature mind. You all say that you have grown up, and you all say that you have matured, but I think that at the age of 20, you are just an expression of maturity. You have a responsibility to your parents that you can never shirk, but you have abandoned your mission in the midst of inaction and depravity.
At the end of the semester, when you return home for the Chinese New Year, your parents still pamper you, still hope for you, and still tell you, but you don't have the slightest apology, don't talk about your studies at all, don't even show them the transcript, hide in a corner and sign the name that should have been signed by them with your own hand.
