1. Take a curve from a straight road
When faced with a congested road, a smart driver will choose to take a detour, walk a little longer, but save some time and reach the destination early. Isn't this the case in life? When difficulties, setbacks or other complicated things, large or small, block our shortcut, then learn to take a detour. In life, the shortest curve is between two points.
Learning to take detours is not only the wisdom of survival, but also the key to success.
There was a German businessman named Henry Schliemann who was deeply obsessed with "Homer's Epic" since he was a child and determined to become an archaeologist. But his family was too poor to afford the huge expense of conducting archaeological research. Obviously, between reality and ideals, poverty blocked his straight path, so he decided to take a curve.
In the next few years, he accumulated a lot of money while working as an apprentice, salesman, trainee sailor, bank messenger and operating the oil industry, and spent the money blindly pursuing his childhood dream. Ideally. Within a few years, he excavated nine cities, and eventually found two ancient Aegean cities. Schliemann became the first person to discover the highly developed Aegean civilization.
Schliemann did not hesitate to take this long detour to realize his ideal. If he had only focused on the straight road in front of him, earning some money to live on, instead of spending a lot of time and energy to earn enough money, then he will never be able to discover those cities buried deep underground, nor will he be able to realize his dream.
Those who don’t know how to take a detour will only leave a trace of sadness for future generations.
The light and shadow of swords dimmed, and the sound of drums and horns disappeared. Besieged on all sides, the overlord's generous and tragic song of "Strengthening the mountains and overwhelming the earth! The times are not good and the time is not going away! The time is not going away but there is nothing we can do! There is a fear, there is nothing we can do!" sounded the generous tragic song. The two roads before him were to cross and not to cross. He chose the latter and refused to cross the Wujiang River! Blood splattered beside Wujiang Pavilion! All that remains are the eternal lamentations of the Jiangdong elders and the comments of later generations: "It is not possible to cross the Wujiang River without a boat. It would be a shame to raise another army against Soochow."
Xiang Yu doesn’t know how to take detours. If we cross the Wujiang River, endure hardships, and make a comeback, then history will be rewritten.
From the figure of the hero, I read the wisdom of taking a detour and the stupidity of not taking a detour.
People should learn to flow like water. If the mountain in front blocks the way to the sea, go around it. People should also learn from morning glory while living and lead a beautiful life. Don't be afraid of taking detours, and don't be afraid of the bumps and stumbling blocks on the detours. If you take a detour from the straight road, the curve to success will be the shortest!
2 Surrounding a Beautiful Life
Man Chengzhi, Grade 3 and Class 30
It is the beliefs and ideals of worship that make your young heart fall. In the middle of the desert? Are you longing for the roc to spread its wings and the eagle to hit the sky, but the rain has wet your wings? You stubbornly tell yourself: Once you determine the direction, you will never look back.
Helpless! How many sighs are shed in life, how much joy is drowned in the dust. When you are bleeding and crying and lying on the ground because of your painful wounds, do you hear the love and teachings of the earth? Only by learning how to take detours can you find a village with hidden flowers and dark flowers.
I admire that strange man standing in the grass covered with fragrance, talented and passionate about serving his country, but I am also dying of the endless sorrow and lamentation of the Miluo River. When the cruel reality broke down the dam of his faith, he silently walked towards the surging river. However, I don't want to call it "calm". Mr. Lu Xun said, "A true warrior dares to face a bleak life." In my opinion, Qu Yuan's tragic life of "being able to enter but not being able to exit" is the result of his not knowing how to take detours. There are many roads in life, why do you have to hit a dead end, suffer a bloody head and refuse to turn back and find another way?
There is more than one road to Rome. When your way is blocked by fog, don’t cry like a dead end. Take a detour, turn a corner, and maybe there is a road ahead with the fragrance of moonlight taking you home.
Confucius deserves to be called a saint! He was born into a declining aristocracy of the Lu State. His family was poor but he was diligent and studious. When he was a local official, he made outstanding political achievements and became an example for everyone to follow. When he served as a military commander, he was conscientious and loyal. Due to the corrupt rule of the Lu State, he left the Lu State in disappointment and traveled around the country, hoping to implement his own ideas, but he ran into walls everywhere.
But the saint's choice was wise. In his later years, he returned to the state of Lu, devoted himself to running a school, determined to write, cultivated "seventy-two sages", and compiled "Poems", "Books", "Li", "Yi", "Le", "Spring and Autumn" 》! It was the wisdom of detours on the road of life that made Confucius so brilliant and added weight to the value and splendor of Confucius' life. Taking a detour is actually a better way to pave the way for your own life.
If Xiang Yu, who was "strengthening the mountains and conquering the people", had not killed himself in the Wujiang River for "not seeing his elders from Jiangdong", when the old mountains and rivers were restored in the future, there would no longer be the endless flow of the Wujiang River. Tears; if Sanmao had not bid farewell poignantly for the passing of Jose, but instead carried the bag of memory and let love support the belief in life, there would be no pain as if the parents were shattered.
The breeze blows the bright moon’s eyes, and the frost-like moonlight rises in the sky. The moon is a spiritual wind chime hanging in the window of people’s souls, awakening our slow thinking with the sound of nature, so How many people have walked around a beautiful road filled with stars, osmanthus and floating moon.
The wisdom of Detour has enabled many people to dance a moving waltz with grace and ease on the stage of life!

Let your heart take a turn
Grade 3, Class 38 Chen Tao
Life is a continuous journey towards success. In order to realize their dreams as soon as possible, people rush to choose the recognized "shortcut". However, when we find that this road is overcrowded and difficult to move, we Can you change direction in time and make your heart take a turn?
Turning the heart is a kind of wisdom and a unique vision. Back then, King Huai made an agreement with his generals: "The one who defeats Qin first and enters Xianyang will be the king." Xiang Yu had an ambition in his heart: to attack Xianyang. Therefore, the generals were strong and strong, and they were invincible in every attack. They were invincible in every battle and captured every city. However, when they arrived outside Xianyang City, they found that Liu Bang had already entered the pass and captured the city. This is Liu Bang's wisdom: in the face of a powerful enemy, Liu Bang takes a detour, not because he is afraid, but because he has a greater goal in mind. But Xiang Yu is not the case. He disdains such "little cleverness" and does not conform to his principles of dealing with people. Therefore, after Gaixia's defeat, his heart could not turn around. In the end, blood was shed on the river bank, leaving an eternal legacy. Pity.
Turning the mind is a kind of wisdom and a manifestation of the resilience of life. After Gou Jian was humiliated by Wu, he corrected his original shortcomings, worked hard to enrich the country and the people, and finally destroyed Wu. After the Red Army failed in its counter-encirclement and suppression campaign, it did not fight to the death. Instead, it wisely chose the Long March to preserve its strength and finally seize power. "A real man can bend and stretch". In moments of life and death decisions, only by maintaining this "real man" resilience can we remain invincible.
Only by turning your soul around can you not be burdened by the world and find your own paradise in time. It's a pity that Qu Yuan didn't understand this. He has no selfish thoughts and is dedicated to serving the country. "A man with a good heart will never regret it even though he died nine times." I admire his ambition and admire his personality, but in that era, who could understand him?
Qu Yuan did not let his heart turn around, and eventually his ambition sank to the bottom of the Miluo River with him, wailing quietly. Just imagine, if Qu Yuan could be like Tao Qian, after recognizing the current status of his official career, he would turn his mind around and cultivate his own spiritual world, wouldn't it be great?
In history, the poem "Be a hero in life, and be a hero in death" is rippling, but there is also a trace of regret. The white shirt was vaguely visible by the river, drifting away in the breeze.
In the journey of life, there is not only one road leading to success. When this road is blocked, why don’t we take a detour and let our hearts take a turn?

The wisdom of detours
Zhang Xiaotai, Grade 3 and Grade 5
>Human life is an extraordinary journey. A seemingly short journey is often full of thorns, while a seemingly distant journey is often smooth. When faced with the choice of life path, we should understand: the line segment between two points may not be the shortest. It is wisdom to find your own direction and take a detour.
"A bamboo stick can beat a horse easily with mango shoes, who is afraid? You can live your whole life in the misty rain." Su Shi's indifferent and broad-mindedness is impressive. Su Shi was demoted, but we can't see any trace of decadence. Unsatisfied in the officialdom, he found his position and avoided the troubles of the officialdom.
Carrying the hope of the elders of Meizhou, thinking of the entrustment of the people of Hainan, and carrying the heroism of Governor Wenwen, he traveled through thousands of years of time and space and walked all the way.
"There will be times when the wind and waves break, and the sails will hang directly on the sea." Li Bai's self-confidence is admirable. After suffering setbacks in his career, he was not depressed. With that self-confidence and finding his own direction, he abandoned the helplessness of the world, took wine as his pleasure, and song as his friends, finally achieving his eternal and elegant romantic feelings.
Taking a detour is not a blind act, it is a decision made on the premise of finding the right direction; taking a detour is not escaping from difficulties, it is a way to the end of the road The wisdom to find a new path. Taking a detour is a kind of wisdom. On the contrary, if you don't know how to adapt and just go to the extreme, the consequences will be disastrous.
Yue Fei, with his back as broad as the Central Plains, carries the ambition of serving the country with loyalty. However, the road to serving the country has been made twists and turns, bumpy and dangerous by the ignorant king and traitorous ministers. Since there is no way to serve the country, why don't you throw away that baggage. Whoever you are loyal to will decide your life or death. The conspiracy was revealed, and twelve gold medals and twelve yakshas came out of the imperial city to capture Zhongliang. You are full of passion and revenge, but you cannot avoid the tragedy of being killed. You lack the wisdom to take a detour.
The heavy history tells us that being unable to find one’s position and lacking the wisdom to take a detour is doomed to be a tragedy. Taking a detour is not a passive approach, it is a rational adaptation.
Before multiple-choice questions in life, we must choose carefully. At the end of the road, the sky is on the bank, so find the right direction and take a detour.
