And the next time

I have always believed that the rainbow is the sun that once failed, because it is not discouraged, so it will re-emerge its own glory - inscription

People's life will inevitably have setbacks and failures. No one can go through a lifetime smoothly. In the face of failure, different people will have different attitudes. Different attitudes will have different results. I used to belong to this.

It was a district-level speech contest. Before the game, I was selected as a seed of the grade class to represent the school. Sitting in the audience waiting anxiously, watching the players on the stage smooth and clear, literary flying, my heart began to shrink a little, fear surrounded me a little. Finally, when the host reported that my name was my turn, I took the stage with a panic. There were countless pairs of wolf-like eyes under the stage, staring at me, rushing to me, and I flinched. I am familiar with the back of the speech, but the brain is blank. The flashing lights on the stage, the audience under the stage. In an instant, all the sounds stopped, and only the sound of the timer dripping slammed my heavy heart. In the end, I chose to give up.

After returning home, I just looked at the fine rain outside the window and said nothing. Mom seems to know something, gently walked over to me and watched the rain with me. After a while, the rain stopped, and the rainbow in the blue sky showed a colorful rainbow. Mom pointed at the rainbow and told me: Do you know? The rainbow is the sun that once failed, because it is not discouraged, so it blooms such beautiful brilliance. This time it failed, and the next time, once you will bloom your own light. I turned my head in tears and looked at my mother and nodded.

It was another flashing light, and there were countless audiences, so it was a speech contest. In the face of the crowd of foreign guests, this time, I smoothly completed my speech and won the thunderous applause.

The same is the face of failure, different mentality will lead to different results, friends, if you fail, please don't be discouraged and stand up bravely. And next time, as long as you go forward and struggle, the flower of dreams will bloom for yourself.
