It is smart to take a detour straight, because you have found a shortcut; It is open-minded to bend the straight road, because you can see more scenery. The road is not at the foot, but in the heart. Successful people have lofty spirit and are heroic and brave. In their dictionary, there is no word fear, and they are confident that they can do anything.

I once saw two lists of names in the newspaper. One was a little-known scholar at that time, and the other was a well-known celebrity, including Han Yu, Gui Youguang, Pu Songling and others who were advertised as failed candidates. The reputation of the former champion in modern society is indeed dwarfed by the latter.

But on second thought, it's not. After all, in the era when they lived, the infinite scenery of high school may be far better than the fame of later generations. Who can say that this is not a success? The other kind of people are bumpy, stumbling all the way to the heights, and they will be immortal. Who can say that they have failed?

In fact, in life, "straight road" and "detour", which is good or bad, right or wrong, there is no conclusion at all. The key lies in the situation you have to face and the characteristics of the things you have to deal with. The great American President Lincoln is a man who is good at dealing with the relationship between "straight road" and "detour". In governing the country, he always strives for simplicity and immediate results.

But in daily life, he is so good at using detours. He will walk slowly in the small yard in front of his house and enjoy it slowly. He will also like fishing by the river and enjoy life. He is very uncomfortable. Look, if each of us can skillfully use the "straight road" and "detour", then our life will be full and free.

Considering our present study and life, facing the pressure of entering a higher school in senior three, of course, we must bravely take the straight road, set a goal, move forward with the least effort and time, and get the admission notice. But in after-school life, should we also take detours, such as reading a good book, drinking a good cup of tea, chatting with a friend and enjoying life to the fullest?

Admittedly, you can't have both shortcuts and beautiful scenery, but there is no need to choose either. If you take a shortcut, congratulations, you are closer to success; If you choose beautiful scenery, congratulations, because you will gain unexpected beauty.
