Reject mediocrity
I can't help but think of a small restaurant I saw when I came here this morning to catch the exam. It's called "Wind and Sand Crossing". Only these three words, the artistic conception is fully realized, and the messy storefront seems not too simple, but it has its own rough and far-reaching pride.
Just a signboard can make this ordinary restaurant stand out from a pile of "a restaurant" and "a snack", which is beyond the reach of mediocre people.
I can't help but think of a group of people who once sat in this examination room and struggled for their ideals, and now they are called "ant tribe"; Their residence is called "humble abode". When the wind and frost of society cooled the blood and smoothed the edges and corners, when the knowledge they learned was discarded at the end of their hearts, they had forgotten their pride as highly educated talents and were silent and mediocre. The saddest thing is not to live in a small room, nor to be hungry and warm, but to lose my ideals and pursuits, leaving only patience and obedience. No one is born trampled on by others, but if there is a heart that is willing to be mediocre and humble, the only destination is just ants.
To be a strong man, you must first have a strong heart; To look down on the mediocre beings, we must first have the intention to board the ship. Yes, Deng is Xin Qiji's "Look at Wu Gou, pat all over the railing, no one will", and Deng is Du Fu's "Once you get to the top, you will see that other mountains are short under the sky. ".
Whether there is a strong heart, a heart beyond mediocrity, is the watershed between mediocrity and Excellence. Man is just a reed of thought, and the noblest thing is thought. Therefore, people's nobility comes from the soul and from the nobility of the ideological level. With a heart that rejects mediocrity, there will always be someone who will see your extraordinary from the firmness in your eyes, from your good speech and clenched fist. Even if the result is still unsatisfactory, even if there will be a slander that "the heart is higher than the sky and the life is thinner than paper", even if it is smashed into mud, it will still be as fragrant as ever.
What about the "ant tribe"? I firmly believe that one day, I will be able to "soar in Wan Li" and "swim in the North Sea at dusk" and leave with Changfeng.
I believe that the owner of the "wind and sand crossing" will not be a mediocre and secular businessman, right? If he is not from the Loess Plateau, he must be a scholar who has hidden poems in his stomach but has to be imprisoned in the secular world. Otherwise, how could there be such a sign of lofty sentiments and ancient charm?
I want to go to the "wind and sand crossing". Eating and drinking is not important anymore. After a drink, we smiled at each other and went out with our boss. Are we Artemisia people?
Refuse mediocrity, the world is wonderful with you.
