One day, Xiao Xianzhi asked her mother Xi, "I only need to write for another three years, right?" Mom shook her head. "Five years of head office?" Mother shook her head again.
I was anxious and said to my mother, "How long do you think it will take?" "Remember, after writing this 18 jar of water in the yard, your handwriting will be strong and your bones will be full, and you will stand straight and steady." My father stood behind him when I turned around. Wang Xianzhi refused to accept it and said nothing. He gritted his teeth for five years and showed his father a lot of written words, hoping to hear a few words of praise. Who knows, Wang Xizhi shook his head one by one. When the word "big" was raised, my father showed a satisfied expression, filled in a dot casually under the word "big", and then returned all the manuscripts to the dedication.
Xiaoxian was still not satisfied, so he showed all his calligraphy to his mother and said, "I practiced for another five years, completely according to my father's words." Look carefully, what's the difference between my dad and me? " Mother really looked at it carefully for three days, and finally pointed to the point added by Wang Xizhi under the word "big" and sighed and said, "My son has worn out three tanks of water, only a little like Xihe."
After listening to this, he was very discouraged and said weakly, "It's difficult! If this continues, when will there be good results? " Seeing that his arrogance had disappeared, his mother encouraged him to say, "Son, as long as you work hard, there is no river you can't cross or mountain you can't climb. As long as you keep practicing as you have in recent years, you will certainly achieve your goal! " After listening to the dedication, I was deeply moved and kept practicing. Everything comes to him who waits. He used 18 buckets of water to practice calligraphy, and calligraphy made rapid progress. Later, Wang Xianzhi's writing reached the level of penetrating paper and perfection. His ci is juxtaposed with Wang Xizhi and is called "Two Kings".
The ancients once said many famous sayings, but I only appreciate one simple sentence: "Persistence is victory!" " "
In the recent 5. 12 earthquake, didn't many survivors survive after being buried under the rubble? It is precisely because they do not bow their heads in the face of disasters that they persist and never let go of a glimmer of hope. As the saying goes, "persistence is victory." Finally, they miraculously survived. Isn't their spirit worthy of our admiration?
I not only experienced the strength of persistence in the earthquake, but also was deeply touched by an incident that happened to me last summer vacation. ...
In August of that summer vacation, my parents took me to travel to Baiyun Mountain. The day after we arrived there, the tour guide organized us to climb this 2800-meter-high mountain. I am very happy. At first, I ran and jumped all the way, and I was very excited. My parents followed me closely. But I've just climbed halfway up the mountain and I'm exhausted. I can't run any longer. I sat on the stone next to me and didn't go. At this moment, my father said to me, "Ada, don't you appreciate the famous saying that persistence is victory?" Why don't you leave before you reach the top of the mountain? What a good man! "I am a competitive person:" Hum! Why am I not a man anymore? I'll show you now! "So, I tried my best to climb to the top of the mountain. Ah, I'm so tired, my feet are weak. But I remembered the famous saying "persistence is victory" and tried to climb to the top of the mountain. Ah, it's almost the top of the mountain! 100 m, 50 m, 10 m ... here we are! I finally climbed to the top! Infinite scenery of dangerous peaks! Yes, I saw blue sky and snow-white clouds. This is nothing, I also saw layers of mountains, really green! At this time, my heart not only has the satisfaction of seeing the beautiful scenery, but also has a sense of pride in defeating myself.
It can be seen that setbacks and difficulties will appear in front of us at any time on the road of our lives. When you face them, don't be afraid, don't shrink back, be brave, persist and be ambitious. As long as you do this, no difficulties or setbacks will overwhelm you.
In the future, I will definitely take "persistence is victory" as my motto, which will definitely benefit me for life.
Snakes are extremely heat-resistant animals in the Sahara desert. After months of drying and baking without rain, the snake hid in the sand to avoid direct sunlight. When they have to walk, they bend their bodies into a zigzag shape and move forward quickly to avoid long-term contact with hot sand. However, there is also a sparrow-like bird with stronger vitality than a snake.
When the bird flapped its wings and just stopped in the sand to look for food, the snake lurking in the sand suddenly opened its mouth and jumped out, seeing that the bird would become the snake's food, but in an instant, the bird changed from a disadvantage to an advantage.
It turned out that the bird was just patting the snake's head with its own claws. Although the bird's strength is limited, the flapping of its claws seems to pose no threat to the snake. The snake still chased the bird, but the bird didn't stop flapping. While dodging the snake's maw, the bird slapped the snake's head with its claws, with good accuracy. Just as the bird fanned 1000 times, the snake finally collapsed in the sand and couldn't get up again. The answer that biologists can get is that after a long period of experience, birds find a point: the snake's head, flapping persistently with its claws. In this indomitable way of resistance, birds win in the contest of disparity in strength.
The bird succeeded because it found a point and stuck to it until the end. Life is actually the same, the details are like fireworks. You just need to find a point, light it, and it will glow unexpectedly.
