I have not watched Beijing 2008 Paralympic Games, but in the past I have read many stories about those handicapped athletes. They are really very good examples deseving us to learn. To overcome the great difficulty coming from their own body needs dramatic encouragement, enough patience, strong perseverence. When those disabled people want to achieve something which for our normal people is very easy, they have to invested a lot of hard work and continouse efforts. And we see a lot of handicapped people are very successful in their life, they add very brilliant page in their life. But when I see myself, for three years after college graduation, I stay in one small company, go to work everday, and do non-challenge work from morning to night. And after work, I watch TV, chat with others through Internet, or walking around in my living area. During weekend, I spend much time sleeping, or going shopping. I have no passion toward my life and my work. When that small salary can make me survive, I am already very satisfied without thinking about going ahead. Of course, around me, many of my classmates and colleagues, they are making efforts to strive for better life. But I only live my own idle way. One of my middle school classmate calls me several times, asking how to learn English. He says he insists learning English for 2-3 hours each night, which surprises me a lot because he belonged to “ bad situdents” ( with low scores in examination). So since with this Beijing 2008 Paralymipic Games, I hope ( I can only say “I hope”,rather than say “ I am determined to” because I already lose confidence in myself), I hope I can learn from them, trying hard, and have great passion toward life, and go ahead, just go ahead, and then make progress. |
