Cultivate fertile soil and watch flowers bloom.

From the poster of "glorious people's teacher" posted on my closet when I was a child, to the statue of "Confucius, the most holy teacher" standing on the middle school campus, and then to the eulogy of "teacher, so preach, teach and dispel doubts" in Korean language textbooks, becoming a people's teacher has gradually become my dream. When the school motto of "Know how to be straight" became a thing of the past, when my classmates worked in the teaching field for four years, I finally returned to this land where I wanted to work. The campus in Dream 4 is solemn and spacious, and the blue-gray walls are quiet and elegant. Walking between classrooms, canteens and dormitories, I finally found my long-lost calm and enthusiasm.

However, there is always a distance between dreams and reality. On the second day of school registration, a child named Ann in my class gave me a warning lesson. It seems normal that he fainted for some reason when he first met, and almost passed out. At that moment, I thought of the worst result, but I stubbornly didn't believe that a life would suddenly disappear in front of me, so in the process of school leaders sending their children to the county hospital, I desperately rubbed their intermittent stiff arms. In order not to let him sleep, after going to the hospital, the child finally woke up after some examination and treatment. My hanging heart also fell to the ground, but I didn't know it was just the beginning. Two days later, the child fainted again. After contacting the parents to understand the situation, the child was taken home to see a doctor and has not returned to school so far. Since then, I have been thinking for a long time. It turns out that educating children is not only to teach them knowledge, but also to face a lot. Other children in the class were also affected by this incident. The original young life looks even weaker, which I know is extremely unfavorable to my future study and life. Learning is hard, and it is impossible to win without a strong will and body. In order to re-establish the children's will, I spent a long time explaining to them the fragility and tenacity of life and emphasizing the importance of safety. With the deepening of understanding, children seem to have slowly walked out of that haze and learned to learn to live within the limits of life. The performance of children in the sports meeting also proves this point: even if they are vulnerable, they have huge hidden energy, which can take their lives to a higher place and enjoy pleasure and freedom.

There are still many things to do in the future, but I believe that it is only a matter of time before life blooms as long as you are willing to start, as long as you are willing to cultivate and watch.
