Waiting for the Sunrise Essay
It’s the hot summer time again. My neighbors upstairs and downstairs invited me to go on a pilgrimage to Nanyue, and I happily agreed.
We set off at four in the morning. When the car arrived at Nanyue, it was still dark. I don’t know whether it was the divine power of the Buddha or the tranquility of the night. At this time, we had a strong desire to go to the peak to watch the sunrise. So, we got in a taxi and headed straight to the top of Zhurong Peak.
In Nanyue at night, you cannot see her beauty and handsomeness, but you can feel her elegance and solemnity. The gentle night breeze blows her friendly breath, making you feel warm and happy; and the continuous tilting of the car body shows her steepness and magic, which should not be underestimated. At this time, you will truly feel the way a pilgrim should. of respect and solemnity.
When we arrived at the top of Zhurong Peak, we saw the mountain wind whistling and the chilly air was overwhelming. "In one day, in one mountain, the weather is not uniform." I believe it. We put on our rented military coats and sat down excitedly on the sun viewing platform.
The night has not yet receded, and the sky and the earth are still vast and integrated. I just sat quietly, thinking of the "sunrise pictures on the sea" and "sunrise pictures on Mount Tai" that everyone wrote, and imagined what a gorgeous scene the sunrise in Nanyue would be like.
The sky is white with fish belly, and a touch of blue slowly bleeds out, like a bathing beach in the early morning, soft and quiet. We stood barefoot on the beach and looked far into the distance, letting the morning breeze blow our hair, and our hearts melting in the soft sea water. Suddenly there was light in the sea water, but it soon became calm again. I feel that the sun is fighting against the black clouds. It projects its brilliance time and time again, only to be blocked by the black clouds again and again. My heart also felt uncomfortable as if it was being grasped by a big hand. I seemed to see those children struggling in confusion. After experiencing the dark clouds in their souls, how much they wanted to return to normal life and do things. A child who is recognized by others! But they also have doubts and are sensitive to everything. They are afraid of sighing, blaming, and being left out; they fervently hope that people will show their enthusiasm, stretch out their hands, and give them a strong hand. But when have we adults ever put ourselves in their shoes? What have you done for them? We can only criticize and accuse, or lament and complain. The omnipotent sun also has obstacles that are difficult to overcome, let alone a child who is not deeply involved in the world and has gone astray.
——In the heavy moment, bunches of red brilliance flashed before our eyes. After the pain of the birth of life, the sun finally sang the strongest note of life. In an instant, the silent and mysterious girl in white from Nanyue transformed into a radiant queen with makeup. This newborn life, like a child returning from a long absence, opens its long arms and rushes towards every relative who is patiently waiting for her. She whispered, telling the sweetness after the bitterness; her tears and smiles revealed the tenderness after the bloody struggle.
Life often goes unsatisfactory, and it can be said to be the same as others. No one can avoid the ruthless torture and tempering of fate. So, let us choose to struggle and fight, and choose patience and waiting. Like a phoenix rising from the ashes, gaining new life. Waiting patiently for the sunrise of life, the process may be bitter, but the result will be beautiful and brilliant.
