I seem to be destined to live a life on the road. I have a restless soul. I always want to wander around. There is a call in my heart that always leads me to an unknown distance. Even if I was sitting in the room, I wanted a window that would allow me to look into the distant horizon.
From birth to 18 years old, I have been living in a small village, with the same sky above my head, walking on the same land, seeing the same scenery every day, and encountering familiar neighbors. I should have lived a meager rural life for a lifetime, married my wife and children, worked on the land, and then slowly grew older in the days when the sun was shining away from the sun. However, God made me born on the banks of the Yangtze River, but I created a 50-meter-high hill on the east side of my house. I climbed the hill and the Yangtze River was unobstructed. At that time, there was no pollution, and it was very far-sighted. It looked far and far. Some ships came from the sky and disappeared into the sky. Some clouds came from the riverside and disappeared on the riverside. So they began to curious, and the sky was beyond the end. have what? Where can I go if I am on board? Thanks to a few of my relatives, because they are in Shanghai, so when I was eight years old, my mother decided to take me to Shanghai. After a long day and a boat, I finally arrived in Shanghai. The trip, the magnificentness of the Yangtze River, the vastness of Wusongkou, the lighting of Shanghai, and the prosperity of the streets left me with a deep memory. Since then, my heart has been eager to travel. When I grow up, I have to go out of the village and go further.
The first time I took the train was to go to college in Beijing. This is the first time I saw the train. I took the exam for three years, and I didn't figure out what made me insist on it for three years. I want to come now, it is the vague desire in my heart, the desire to go to the distance. This desire made me live and not reluctant to stay in a village for a lifetime, and the only way to get out of the village was to go to college. At that time, there was no such thing as going out to work in the rural areas. If I put it here, I might be a wage earner who wanders around. For a while, I fell in love with the train, listening to the strong rhythm of the wheel and rails in the carriage, listening to the wind whizzing through the window; and the tearing heart of the train coming across the road , often pull your soul long and long. The train passed from one city to another, and the scenery outside the window changed constantly. I left my heart in different landscapes.
My college life is lonely and inferior. The transformation of a rural child after entering a big city is profound and painful. The biggest comfort for the four-year university is that I can go out of the campus on weekends and go hiking around Beijing. I have been sitting on the top of the incense mountain countless times to watch the sunset and the mountains. In the third year of college, I got tuberculosis and was sent to a tuberculosis sanatorium in the western suburbs of Beijing. Although the wall of this sanatorium is very high, the surrounding mountains can be seen in the upstairs room. In the year of the hospital, I saw the colors of the mountains, the pink of spring, the verdure of summer, the flaming of autumn and the bleak of winter. At the entrance of the hospital, there is a hill. The top of the mountain is engraved with Feng Yuxiang's four characters: "I don't die." I climbed the hill almost every day, staring at these four words. After the health was better, the doctor allowed me to walk out of the gate, and I went to climb the peaks that I could see every day from the hospital window. That is, in the year of the hospital, I finished reading "Xu Xiake's Travel Notes".
People need to have a desire and a dream. The days without desire and dreams make our lives lose vitality and courage. For a long time, I almost fell into the trap of being in the status quo. After graduating from college, I stayed at Peking University as a teacher. The income was not high but my life was comfortable. So my wife and children, the rice and oil, the days passed, and the dream disappeared. Until one day, I went back to my hometown and climbed up the hill. I watched the Yangtze River roll from the horizon, and the desire to cross the horizon was suddenly awakened. Therefore, I made up my mind to go out of the Peking University campus and began the process of independent struggle. After the dream of studying abroad was ruthlessly crushed, New Oriental finally appeared on the horizon of my life. Since then, I have been out of control. With me flying over the horizon, New Oriental has moved from one city to another and from China to the world. I also take the dream of New Oriental and my desire to move from Chinese cities to world cities, from Chinese landscapes to world landscapes, from Chinese people to the world.
Maybe people are on the road, this is life. Whether you are willing or not, the first thing we learned after we were born was to walk, and we have been on the road since then. We have been on two roads for the rest of our lives, the road of the soul and the road of reality. These two roads complement each other, the road of the soul guides the road of reality, and the road of reality enriches the road of the soul. When our hearts no longer desire to cross the mountains and rivers, the soul loses vitality and nutrition; when our real path has no spiritual guidance, even walking around the world is just a dead body. Year after year we continue to walk, and each person's life goes so differently. The new year is coming again. Are you ready to go on the road?
