Never Give Up

“If I could reach higher, just for one moment to touch the sky„”---this is from my favorite song Reach.

When we are appreciating the passionate melody of Gloria Estefan, we could hardly imagine that she could return to the stage after her paralysis. In the year 1990, this Cuban singer was knocked down in a traffic accident, and the doctor declared that she might never walk again. But Gloria did not give up and kept up constant exercising. Just one year after the disaster, she stood up again and presented this encouraging song at the Atlanta Olympics.

Whenever I think of Gloria, I can’t help recalling my memory seven years ago, when I first entered university. Naturally shy, ordinary looking, average scores in study, just like an ugly duckling, I seemed to be the least outstanding one in my class. And the successive failures in the beginning led me into despair. “Am I destined to take the back seat to others?” Unwilling to submit to the fate, I paid more efforts on my study as well as many other activities, film dubbing, recital, drama„ cause I just want to catch every little opportunity to prove myself. Constant effort yields sure success. Thanks to the competition, I received some awards and most of all, I gained the courage and confidence to face any difficulties in my life journey.

Life is just like farming, and what you can reap depends a lot on your sowing and dedication. Once you have a dream, don’t be hesitant. Your next difficult step may be the one to the top. Keep going forward, even in the toughest time, and never give up.

永不放弃

“如果我能到达更高的地方,哪怕只有碰触天空的一刹那„”---选自我所喜爱的歌曲《到达》。

当我们在欣赏葛罗莉亚·伊斯特芬那充满激情的旋律,我们很难想象她能从瘫痪中回到舞台。1990年这个古巴歌手遭遇车祸,医生说她可能再也没办法走路了。可是葛罗莉亚并没有放弃希望,坚持做恢复训练。在灾难后仅仅一年,她又站起来了,并且在亚特兰大奥运会上唱响了这首鼓舞人心的歌曲。

每当我想起葛罗莉亚的时候,我禁不住回忆起七年前我刚进入大学的时候。天性害羞,相貌平平,成绩一般,就像一只丑小鸭,我是班上最不起眼的一个。而且在刚开学时一连串的失败让我陷入绝望。“难道我注定要给别人当配角吗?” 不愿意向这个命运屈服,我更加努力的学习并且参加许多其他的活动,电影配音、朗诵、戏剧„因为我想抓住任何一个微小的机会来证实我自己。不懈的努力终会带来成功。我从竞赛中获得了一些奖励,最重要的是,我从中得到了面对人生一切困难的勇气和决心。

生活就像是耕耘,一份耕耘一份收获。一旦你有了梦想,不要犹豫。你艰难的下一步也许就是通往成功的阶梯。即使在最困难的时候也要勇往直前,决不放弃。
