Boy, what would it be like to be an ordinary person?

In recent days, Shanghai Youshengxiao has been widely screened. Behind all the affectionate and helpless words, there is the deep anxiety of mothers: What if you unfortunately become an ordinary person in the future! So today, my dear child, I want to talk to you about what would happen if you were an ordinary person? It is said that the star primary school in Shanghai not only looks at the parents, but also the academic qualifications of the ancestors. Let’s start with them. Dear child, your grandparents and grandparents are all ordinary people. Your grandma never went to school for a day and spent all her time helping the family with farm work and taking care of her younger siblings. My grandma told her mother countless times that when she was a child, she would cry secretly with envy when she saw others going to school, but was too sensible to say anything. Later, she thought of a way, which was to write down all the characters she saw, draw them, and ask her brother and other people who knew the characters. The slogans on the wall, the scraps of paper she picked up, and the shoe shapes cut out of newspapers are all her library. Just like this, I picked up the words in my basket word by word, and finally finished reading the first book. Later, when my mother was a child, there were many books at home, and my grandfather would bring newspapers back every day. Grandma read newspapers, magazines for educating children, and also read large novels and commentaries. Grandma was always ready to sacrifice everything for her family and children. However, once the child becomes independent, she immediately withdraws from the child\’s world and goes to work. In my mother’s memory, my grandma nailed books in a printing factory, cut threads in a clothing factory, worked in the canteen, sold vegetables, and swept the floor in a rubber and plastics factory. Now in her 60s, she is still skewering mutton skewers for barbecue restaurants. At first, she said it was to kill time, but later more and more barbecue restaurants came to her because she worked quickly and well, cleanly and beautifully. This is always the case. No matter how trivial the work is, how strict the boss is, or how meager the pay is, she always does her best to work to the best of her ability. Mom thinks grandma is so cool. Because she is always growing, no matter how poor the resources are, nothing can stop her from shining brightly. Your grandma dropped out of school after she reached the fifth grade and went to work in a factory. She started out as a lathe and later as a quality inspector. Some people say that it’s almost enough, but she says, no, it can’t be any different. For this reason, she offended many people. The most exaggerated time was when someone secretly loaded a machine with substandard quality into a truck to be transported away. She heard about it, ran all the way, blocked in front of the huge car, and said angrily that if you want this kind of machine to leave the factory, you should run over me. Mom thinks grandma is so cool. Because that is true dedication and responsibility. Not only those at the top of the pyramid can take on this responsibility. Children, they are ordinary people, but their lives are full of hope and warmth, full of value and meaning, right? Dear child, your mother is also an ordinary person. When I was a child, my mother\’s dream was to be a pastry chef, but later this dream was shattered. When I was in junior high school, my mother studied in a small town and ranked fifth in the class. I think the top two gods and goddesses are Mount Everest that can never be surpassed. The male idol is not only good at studies, he is also good at calligraphy. He often wrote down Qin Guan\’s \”Slender clouds make tricks, flying stars spread hatred\”, which made us stunned for a while. The goddess is not only good at studies, but also has a good personality, gentle and generous. At that time, my mother felt very inferiorah. Later, my mother finally got the idea and started to be a top student. She went all the way to a prestigious school, went abroad to study, and gave speeches at the most powerful academic conferences in her profession. She was cool for many years. But soon, my mother was hit hard by life because of poor decision-making. But even in the most disgraced moment, my mother never thought that graduating from a prestigious school should be treated favorably by life and everything should be smooth sailing. Moms rely on their own strength to stand up, walk across one platform after another, painfully think and explore their career development, and at the same time strive to be a good mother. What my mother is most proud of is that she has received recognition, experience and growth in every job. It’s not based on the halo of a prestigious school, but on the work performance brought about by strength and hard work, every time. My mother is an ordinary person. She does not have a mansion or a high position. After my mother dies, no one will write a biography for me. In this world, I am as insignificant as dust. But my dear child, my mother feels that her life is harmonious, sweet and exciting. Because mom is always working hard to explore and achieve the best version of herself. My mother had a brother whom I admired very much. He once said, why can\’t you just live happily? Why don\’t you live a leisurely, stable and beautiful life without having to go through all the trouble? Mom thought about this question for a long time and finally had the answer. I walked a long way, did a lot of things, and said goodbye to many close friends. I worked hard, became obsessed with new knowledge, studied again and again, and challenged again and again, all in order to find myself. This is my practice, the way I, an ordinary person, want to live in this world. Mom is still on the road, working tirelessly, full of hope and curiosity. My dear child, I hope you do the same. Dear child, your father is also an ordinary person. When mom decided to be with dad, her best friends were against it. They think their father is too ordinary. Not only does he look ordinary, he also doesn’t study well. He even fails his exams. He is not a popular figure in the school. Even my father often asks, when did you feel like you were with me? The answer is the following story. Dad said that when he first entered college, he had never learned computers. That was 20 years ago. Children from cities were very familiar with computers, but children like us from small counties had never seen one. How to do it? During the winter vacation, my father went to the computer market alone. He stood there silently observing all morning and found that one store was doing particularly good business. So he walked in, found his boss, took out his student ID card, and asked to work for the boss for free. The boss thought it was interesting and agreed. Dad said it was very difficult at first. Although his colleagues have low academic qualifications, they are very good at computers and always laugh at him. Even when he comes to mop the floor early in the morning, he is picked on in various ways. But while my father was studying hard, he was also friendly to others. By the time the winter vacation was over, he was already the most powerful technician in the store. He became good friends with his colleagues and often took them to school to watch movies. My mother was very touched and touched by my father\’s open-mindedness and open-mindedness. But more importantly, my mother has seen many smart and outstanding people, but they are cautious about the world. Mom also respects and appreciates them, but she feels that it is unlikely to be with himThey become partners. Because my mother hopes that I can love the world to the fullest without any reservations, and do what I want to do without bowing my head. From this point of view, you probably cannot be cautious, you can only be brave and strong. Dad is a brave and strong man. In a sense, he is braver and stronger than mom. When his mother was vulnerable, he would repeatedly comfort her: life is a marathon. Life is a marathon. We are ordinary people running in it. Some people have wind under their feet, and some people have their own wind and fire wheels. They are the very few who are born with superiority. Some people are limping, and some people have no shoes. They are a very small number with congenital deficiencies. The rest of us are ordinary people. Our talents are similar, our resources are not different enough to constitute a chasm, we are the boring middle of a normal distribution. Dear children, this is the truth of our lives. This means that on the runway of life, we can never get everything done once and for all, and it will never be too late. My mother has seen many people who live their lives until their hair turns gray and still show off their academic qualifications. She feels very sad. My mother has also seen many people who have no academic qualifications but have made outstanding achievements in their own industries, and she admires them very much. So dear child, please forgive me, we are not anxious parents. My father and I have never thought about letting you go to a star elementary school, but let you go to an elementary school that is close to home and has less homework. We had to do half-heartedly in the Mathematical Olympiad. The biggest gain was that when playing the game, we had an additional option to guess the sequence. My father and I did not force you to learn a musical instrument, nor did we ever think of asking you to take a grade exam. We just want you to fall in love with reading and hope you learn to study, think and reflect on your own. We just want you to keep playing football. We hope you will have a healthy body and understand what competition and cooperation are. We just want you to make good friends and hope you enjoy the sweetness of friendship. We just take you to travel to various places, hoping that you will know the vastness of the world and the vastness of life. We just chat and laugh with you, from movies to inflation, from Stony Brook to Tolstoy, from childhood embarrassments to World War II, from raising little turtles to world energy, these are all without purpose, we just simply enjoy being with you Together, we enjoy a relaxed and happy family life for the three of us. But if you don\’t wind it up, will it deprive you of the golden avenue you may have? To be honest, Mom has no idea. Mom also doesn\’t know whether if you wind up your clockwork, you will definitely have a golden road. Without knowing, my mother chose to respect the rules and probability. Respect the rules and respect the probability. The rule is that if you stick to two good habits of diligence and thinking, and keep running, your life will not be too miserable. You know, when they are 10 years old, all the children are running as fast as they can. When you are 20 years old, some people are already slacking off. At the age of 30, many people slow down. At the age of 40, half of them stop. At the age of 50, there are very few people running. When you are 60 years old, your companions will be as few as the morning stars. We run hard not to stop running one day. We study hard not to stop studying one day. This requires us not to run too painfully,Sometimes we have to enjoy it, sometimes we have to endure it, but it is best to have more enjoyment. How can this be done? Just find out what you are good at, what you like, and know what you want. The psychological term is called \”developing self-identity\” and it is best done between the ages of 13-18. I am ashamed that my mother did not complete this task until she was 35 years old. In addition to rules, there are also probabilities. Mom doesn’t know what kind of situation you will face in the unfolding picture of your life. What mentors and confidants will you meet? What opportunities will you get, what setbacks and injuries will you encounter? What kind of girl would you like? In which country and city will you spend your life? My dear child, mother doesn’t even know. Mom can only bless you and cannot set limits for you. Mom never said, I hope you will fly thousands of miles, or I hope you will be ordinary and fireworks. The way you spend your life should be your own choice when you grow up. Mom just hopes that you will be strong and brave, and don\’t be a prisoner in the eyes of others just because you are afraid of ridicule and hurt. Mom only hopes that you will be diligent and perseverant. All the difficulties and sufferings in the world are just paper tigers in the face of perseverance and perseverance. Mom only hopes that you will be tolerant and friendly. The happiness felt by a kind and open heart far exceeds the unhappiness caused by harm. Thirty years ago, people were talking about going to the sea and households worth ten thousand yuan. Now people are talking about class and houses. What will people say in 30 years? The world is constantly changing, but the self is eternal. My child, no matter how noisy the world is, what you should do most in your childhood and youth is not to crush others in limited subjects, but to discover your talents in reading, traveling, studying, and socializing. Improve your personality, develop various skills, learn to cooperate with others, and slowly practice your decision-making skills. These are not easy, but mom and dad believe you can do it. Finally, the most important thing is that mom and dad will always love you and always think that you are a treasure given to us by God. Even though our family is so ordinary and ordinary.
