Ideal is a beacon, pointing out the direction for us, ideal is a torch, dispelling darkness for us, and ideal is sunshine, illuminating our lives.

Ideals always give us strength and inspire us to work hard. I remember last summer, we were nervous about going to NOIP. The weather is getting hotter and hotter, the sun is scorching the earth, the trees on the roadside are hanging their heads, and only cicadas are singing tirelessly. Pedestrians on the road are in a hurry, as if they want to find a shady place quickly. On this hot afternoon, the students rushed to the classroom. The classroom full of students was silent. Only the squeak from the ceiling fan was accompanied by the teacher's cadence. The topic seems endless. After finishing one topic after another, sweat blurred my eyes before I remembered to wipe them. The rustling of paper and pen sounds like a happy song, dancing in the hot sun with my ideal. Tired? Yes, I am very tired. Maybe our peers are blowing air conditioners and drinking cold drinks, but none of us feel hard, because we are all fighting for our ideals. Ideals are like stimulants, which make us full of strength. They inspire us to challenge all kinds of problems. The horn of the charge has sounded, and no one wants to fall behind.

Ideal is also a beacon of life, guiding us when we are confused. In our life journey, we will inevitably experience various setbacks and failures. At this time, we often get lost and lose our way. Ideal is the compass of life, which leads us to the right path. That sweaty summer passed, but I didn't expect NOIP to win only the third prize. It seems that all the hard work of a summer vacation was in vain. Last autumn, I felt like a yellow leaf. Falling in the autumn wind, lost in the trough of life. At this moment, the teacher's voice exploded in my ear. It doesn't matter if I fail once, there will be more opportunities waiting for you. You are the rising sun in the morning, and your ideal should be higher than the mountain and wider than the sea. I gradually stopped being confused, and I began to study hard again and climb to my other ideal.

The road of life, because of the ideal, this lamp is no longer dark; Life is no longer monotonous, because there is an ideal lamp; No matter how dark it is, no matter how far it is, no matter how difficult the road is, we will not be timid! Our youth will be more exciting because of dreams, so light the lamp of dreams for ourselves.
