Write an 800-word essay with the title "Facing the Distance"

With the independent bow, history is like a river of spring water, rushing eastward from under your feet and disappearing into the distant sky. Where will this ship take me? I face the future, the unknown era, and fall into the abyss of confusion. I have a beautiful vision for the future. I hope that in the future, the weather will be clear and cloudless, the paths will be filled with wild flowers, and the whole world will naturally be filled with spring flowers. However, the world is unpredictable. In the future, there will be desert gardens and deserts full of yellow sand, and there will also be forests and grasslands full of dangers. Thinking of this, I can't help but feel timid ripples in my heart. "God, do you know how I should face the future?" "The green mountains on both sides of the strait come out facing each other, and the sun is shining on the solitary sail." When the boat enters the canyon, the green mountains on both sides of the strait are magnificent, birds are flying together, flowers are blooming, and fish are swimming in the shallows. What a vibrant spring scenery. Suddenly, several young eagle calls came from a rugged peak, welcoming the sound. A palm-sized young eagle stood alone on the top of the mountain. It screamed timidly, panting heavily and trembling. Move the fleshy body to the edge of the cliff. The young eagle lowered its head and looked down. However, its curious sight was ruthlessly blocked by the abrupt and strange rocks. The world under the cliff was still an unknown world. The young eagle's eyes were full of disappointment. He longs to be like his ancestors, fighting in the sky, competing with the sky, and dancing with the wind. The world at the bottom of the cliff has always been his dream. However, he is timid about the unknown, and his timidity has been killing his fighting spirit. , the peace and happiness on the cliff has always been his favorite, where should he go... Finally, he stood up majestically, spread his wings, leaned over and flew down the cliff, and his figure disappeared into the unknown, disappearing into his dreams. Sitting on the boat, a fat and familiar figure flashed outside the window. Although the movements of the young eagle were not very skillful, I knew that another heroic overlord was born in the sky. I secretly admired: The young eagle faced the future, and it also had He was timid and reluctant to give up, but his persistent pursuit of his dream eventually led to him taking a brave leap and becoming an eagle. "The shadow of the lone sail is far away in the blue sky, and only the Yangtze River can be seen flowing in the sky." Full of confidence and courage, I leaned on the railing and recited the poem with great passion. I couldn't help but think of: the man riding a donkey amidst the yellow sand in the sky and the north wind blowing geese. The singer; the turtle fisherman on the sea who uses neon as a thread and the rainbow as a hook; the traveler who visits green mountains and green waters, singing and walking. I think that back then, Li Taibai also drew his sword and looked around to face the uncertain future; he also once drew his sword and cut off the water to face the sad future. "There will be times when the wind and waves break, and you will hang your sails to help the sea." This is Taibai's final attitude towards the future. What is there to be afraid of in the future? With this self-confidence, Taibai could ride the wind and waves and spit out half of the prosperous Tang Dynasty. I finally understand that what the future will look like is determined by God, and the only thing we can do is control ourselves. Face the future bravely. Even if the mountains are high and the storms are violent, how can they stop you from pursuing your dreams. Facing the future with confidence, even if there are many difficulties and dangers, and the road is full of thorns, isn't it true that soldiers will come to block it and water will come to cover it? Looking persistently towards the future, even if the sky is full of yellow sand and overgrown with weeds, how can we extinguish our enthusiasm for building a paradise on earth? Looking towards the future, spring will surely be warm and flowers will bloom.
