I remember a friend once said to me that there are three kinds of people who come out of failure, one embraces the darkness and refuses care and happiness, one stops and continues to bear the pain brought by setbacks, and the last one, gains from setbacks, grows in setbacks and finally overcomes it. Relatively speaking, we also face setbacks, but also to experience the trials and tribulations of life, we carry things will be broken in one collision, and finally scattered, whether to pick up, or then rushed.

Everyone will fall! But what is the reason for the fall, not only us, many people do not understand until now as well. Life, but in the spring sowing, autumn harvest, what you sow, you will harvest what: sow a mind, harvest a thought; sow a thought, harvest an action; sow an action, harvest a habit; sow a habit, harvest a fate.

When one day, life is no longer confused, all the fog dissipates, we will find that in the process of exploration, growth has stepped into the late years, too late to pick up what was broken; when one day, life into the autumn, the golden wheat fields cover the past, we will find that ears of wheat are hollow, no full body, and to this empty harvest, we can not pick up; when one day, we gray hair, no success to accompany us, we will find that we can only pick up, to trace the past, to find the harvest that once was. If you pick up the pieces on the ground and put together the fragmented harvest, there is no need to pick them up at sunset with your back bowed.

God is fair, there will be a harvest if you give. Maybe the harvest is not what we envisioned at first, or maybe the harvest time is not what we had hoped for at first, but there will be a harvest. We pay sweat, get rewarded; pay time, get knowledge; pay sincerity, get love; pay the price, get experience; pay hardship, get growth ...... time is like a fishing net, where we spread it, the harvest is where.

Life is also a choice, give up some, and you will harvest some. So, while it's still light, what's in your bag into your heart, empty your bag, then harvest tomorrow, then pick up!

Dreams

Dream, is a match, you just need to put more effort, and you can rub it on fire, this is the first step to success, next, if you want to see the first light of your life, then you have to find the first street light on the road of your life, because that is the only condition to achieve the dream after you find that street light, trouble you to light it because it can light up the road of your life, it will let you go step by step steadily and properly If you fall, please do not give up, because you may be only a little distance from success, just when you light the street lamp, you will decide whether the end of the road is light or darkness.

When I was a child, my dream was to become a teacher, I was at that time, I could only contact the teaching profession, the teacher's condescending, free to criticize those "disobedient" students so that my only little self-esteem can be played, but as I grew older, I found when the teacher so hard, Tolstoy once said. "The idea is the guiding light, no ideal, there is no firm direction, no direction, there is no life." Dreams, people for their future blueprint and vision, everyone has their own ideal, have good hope and vision of their future, the hen's dream is to peck in the courtyard, so its wings can no longer fly, the eagle's dream is to soar the blue sky, so there are strong wings to fight the storm, dreams for everyone is very important, different dreams can make a different life. Having a dream does not only mean that one has a beautiful dream, one can narrate it at any time, one can adapt it at any time, or even discard it, having an ideal also means having the motivation, courage, and method to turn the idea into reality, which is the essential difference between a dream and a fantasy, an empty dream.

I love to dream in this way. I want to be an angel in white when I watch war movies, a police officer when I see traffic police standing majestically in the middle of the road, a manager for a while, a journalist for a while, a flight attendant for a while. Anyway, I want to grow up well and become the kind of person I want to be.
