色彩的"奇跡" The colours of “Mir.

　　The  colours  of  “Miracle”

　　高二(11)班  劉迪

　　Many people think that miracle is something that seldom happens; it’s something that ordinary people can’t achieve. They admire Michael Jordan, the greatest basketball player in the world by now; or Armstrong, the six-time champion of the Tour de France who successfully overcomes the terrible cancer. Yes, their careers are really incredible! But have you ever notice that they live simple life like us; they work hard every day like us; they face failures and victories like us; they cry, laugh like us? The only different thing is that they show the results of efforts in public. We every action man in the world is just the same essentially. Once you live your life to the fullest, you have shown your own personality , then you’re extraordinary to others.

　　Each second we live is a new and unique moment of the universe, a moment that’ll never be again. So, what should we say to ourselves? We should say: “Do you know what you’re? You’re a miracle. You’re unique. In all the years that have passed, there has never been another one like you. You legs, your arms, your clever fingers, the way you move”. Well, hurry up, my friends, from now on try to be the best you could be!

　　M=Master

　　Every man is the architect of his own fortune. On your way to a brilliant life, you first need to learn something new constantly. For us, students, trying to get on well with all the subjects is quite realistic. Sometimes we get confused, because the school life described in some novels, articles is comparably different, which is exciting, full of ease. But after all, it’s partially imaginary. We complain that chemistry formulas, physical phenomena, and lists of English words are dull. We exclaim in our innermost that we want to live the life we love. But still, everything remains the same. Why don’t you think about the problem with another attitude. The proverb “Never to old to learn” is known to most people. As competition in the society is getting fiercer and fiercer, we can’t stand firm, find a job, meet the principal needs of our family without abundant knowledge. Maybe we sacrifice our most beautiful years to lock ourselves in a room filled with books. But some day you’ll have your bright future thanks to such hardships. If  you relate every  “suffering” to your prospect, you’ll probably find yourself full of strength.

　　No pains, no gains. Master every lesson you can learn in front. Master morals we should remember in different situations. Master your mind so that you could be calm and reasonable when settling any coming obstruction.

　　I=Independence

　　Day after day, we’re gradually building a world of our own the moment we’re born, from the first call “Mum” to the first step you made by yourself. Independence is of importance, because our friends, parents, teachers can’t help us all the time. Usually, teenagers have a strong feeling of asking for independence in a certain period of time, during which we want to be unique. We resist to accept others’ help and care. We are eager to protest against all the traditional restrictions…. In a word, we wish to fly with our wings that aren’t plump at all. After several years, when I recall the experience, I find myself ignorant. It’s only an impulse, but can’t be called independence. Independence, not only means the wealth of materials, but also means the reliance on yourself in spirit. In daily life, we think in our own way, we settle difficulties with our own methods, and improve them if necessary. In my opinion, independence is a mature life-system that can help us live as easy and nice as we can.

　　R=Relaxation

　　Even though the world is similar every hour, every day. Even though the burden on our shoulders is hard to stand, we’d better be good to ourselves. Under the dark pressure, we’re easy to assume the worst. Sometimes the world appears grey, indifferent and even evil in our blue eyes. However, it’s not nearly that bad. In fact, we’re easy to get satisfied. Hardships never ramble anywhere. Happiness comes through the door you didn’t know you left open. What we need are quite simple. We like a gentle breeze, which blows slightly, getting our hairs to float in the air. We like clear stars, blinking their eyes against the velvet darkblue curtain, telling us an ancient legend.

　　We like the setting sun hidden behind masses of scarlet clouds, creating the last beauty of  a day…So don’t be pessimistic when you’re sad or tired, raise your head, and take a look at the babyblue sky. It’s so wide as if can put up with everything. Sky is also like a man, if we compare various weather to different moods. Sunny days are smiles, rainy or windy days may be sadness. But the sky never frowns, on the contrary, he stays calm, letting the unhappy things passing and the pleasant moments kept in mind. Sky is broad-minded, because sorrow never lasts forever, and no life lives for depression.

　　As above, when we rest properly, we can also learn something that isn’t written on paper. Widen your heart, and adjust your mood, then you’ll find every day is fresh.

　　A--Abandon

　　Life is like a roundabout river. There’s no doubt that we must make some unwilling choices. At the crossing road of life, we should learn to abandon. Since every little choice can change your orbit, we should be conscious enough to know what we want, not only what we have in hand. A wise man is always creating his opportunity rather than wait for it. Deciding which road to go is the moment either making a leap forward, or leading you into an endless marsh. Sometimes we must give up our interest to pick up something we don’t really like; or we must abandon an easy road to join in wretched sufferings. But never lose your heart. Whatever you choose, no matter how nice or hard it is, the things you learn after the decision are something you’ll never learn on any other road.

　　C=Courage

　　Life is a challenge, meet it. Life is a promise, fulfill it. Life is a sorrow, overcome it. Life is a struggle, accept it. Sometimes we feel that obligations are like burden, so heavy on our back.; pressure is like the overcast sky, hanging over head; death and loss are like a dark cave, and we go deeper and deeper, hard to breathe. But on the other hand, only when we’re cornered can we be the strongest man we’ve never been before.

　　Courage isn’t an impulse, motivating us to achieve things others dares not to do. That may lead you to be a criminal, a thief, or a person who be addicted to drugs.

　　There’s a story. Once a monk arranged a boxing match between a child and an experienced boxer. Each time the fighter stuck the boy, he fell down, but at once the boy stood up. “What ashame,” the boy’s father said. “I never thought he could be so easily knocked down..” But the monk said: “I’m sorry that’s all you see. Don’t you see that each time he falls down, he stand up again instead of crying? That’s the kind of courage you want him to have.”

　　Courage is a strength that you can refresh even after a great defeat. Courage is a power that though getting hurt, but you still stand up to run. Courage is a spirit you face everything even thought knowing it’s hard to overcome.

　　If each time you’re knocked down, you have the courage to stand up again, then you can be proud of yourself.

　　L=Love

　　I find a comparison of life to the warm sunshine quite proper. The sun scatters sunlight, making it everywhere. Love is here everywhere. It grows when spring comes, develops when summer arrives, become ripe when fallen leaves float in the cool winds, and turns into flicking flame when cold winter approaches.

　　Everyone needs love, and everyone is wroth loving. Love lies in a hot glass of milk mother put on your desk. Love lies behind a common “Happy birthday” or a sincere blessing. Love comes out of a simple smile….There’re many people we care and care us. The fast way to lose love is to hold on it tight, and the best way to keep love is to give it wings.

　　Love is giving. Love is living. Love is taking someone’s load. Love helps them along the road. Love is caring. Love is sharing. Love will seek the best for others. Love treats everyone like brother.

　　E=Ending…..

　　Ending….. In fact, there’s no ending of mastering, independence, abandoning, courage, and love. Miracle comes after the complete experiences of life. We’re unique. We’re the one and the only in the world. In the end:

　　I wish you enough sun the keep your attitude bright. I wish you enough rain to appreciate the sun more. I wish you enough happiness to keep your spirit alive. I wish you enough pain so that the smallest joy in life appears much bigger. I wish you enough loss to appreciate all that you possess. I wish you enough hellos to get you through the final goodbye.

　　Sometimes struggles are exactly what we need in our life. If God allows us to go through our life without any obstacle, it would crippled us. We wouldn’t be as strong as we could be. And we could never fly.

　　Life is life, taste it. Have a good day, have a marvelous life, struggle a little if you need to….The fly!
