Since we were born, we were doomed to start a journey. The journey might be hard or be happy. The only similarity is that we all need to cover the life distance. So whether the journey is good or not all depends upon ourselves. We all need to try to make our life meaningful.
I once read an article written by Shi tiesheng, a writer suffering from paralysis of both legs. He sits in the wheelchair all the day. His article says life is like a journey, someone spend time in vain, thinking that life equals survival. They eat only to keep themselves alive and only to go through the days with the intention of finishing it, your life will be dull.
So , how to finish the journey in a correct way? First, you should realize that there are so many setbacks in our journey. A journey without suffering is unworthy of being called life. What we need to do is overcoming difficulties one after another. Shi tiesheng jokes “ my job is falling ill and my spare time job is writing.” He shows a smiling face to his disabilities. And his article also encourages a middle school student who suffered from a traffic accident to walk out of the shadows.
As an old saying goes, Life is a journey, one that is much better travelled with a companion by our side. I think the companion must be the fine view and beauty along the road. In real life , those are called friendship , family bond and glories. So another important aspect is having a heart to find beauty. When I was young , I often made mistakes, stealing, fighting, lying and so on. But my parents let me admit my fault and correct them. They let me know what is good and what is evil. It is like they always help me up when I fall on the journey. Shi tiesheng’s article often refers to his mother. I think it must be his mother that is the beauty of his life and supports him to live. So cherish the view, cherish the person around us that make the journey more colorful.
So friend, take your bags, go on your journey, to overcome difficulties, to find beauty. Great days are still ahead of us!
