After several rounds of group matches, Liu Xiang finally appeared, which made everyone excited. But from the beginning of the trial run, Liu Xiang frowned, and the pace of walking also showed obvious pain in his heel, which made him unbearable. This makes our hearts tense. From then on, we were worried about whether his injury would affect the game, hurt his health, or … when he turned away after the start, the world seemed to suddenly be quiet. No one is talking, no one is noisy. We watched him grab his right foot and watch him turn away. Finally, he collapsed under the signboard of the 2008 Olympic Games, and no one bothered him, just quiet.
At this time, our hearts are broken, for this young man. "I wouldn't have made this decision or resigned if I didn't have to." In a short sentence, we have fully realized his helplessness, sadness and pain at that time.
As an athlete, how cruel is it to let him give up the game? It's like letting the singer leave the stage and the actor leave the screen. In this world, it is necessary to strive for good things, but some things make us have to give up. It is more difficult to give up than to persist.
Liu Xiang has been living in the spotlight since she won the gold medal in Athens last time. Living in front of the public with a huge aura and maintaining a normal mentality is quite hard. Reality is often cruel and helpless, accept and face everything in front of you, and put those unnecessary persistence in the deepest part of your heart. Giving up is transcendence, and giving up is a step forward.
Giving up immediate interests may lead to greater gains; Give up temporary failure to succeed. On the road of life, we often have to give up many things as important as life. It may be a pity that Liu Xiang gave up his dream of competing for the Olympic gold medal in the motherland this time, but it would be even more regrettable if he suffered this kind of pain.
Life itself is a hard process, and no one lives easily. The key is to have a correct attitude. Smile at the luck and misfortune that life gives you, be strong in experience and grow up in pain.
As Liu Xiang, I think his turn is more meaningful than the 10 column in front of me, because he can overcome himself and make the most difficult choice in life. This gold medal is of great significance to his life and China, but it is definitely not the whole meaning of his life. He surpassed himself and showed us the transcendence of giving up.
