Zhang Yujie, 25 years old, was born into an ordinary working family. She has been yearning for distant places since she was a child, but due to family financial reasons and academic pressure, she has not been able to realize her dream. Now, after graduating and working for a few years, her life is gradually stable, so she decided to embark on a journey of her own to pursue that shining light in her heart.
Just go, it's the adventure I've always longed for. So, I quit my job, packed my bags, and embarked on a new journey in which I was the protagonist.
For the first stop, I chose to stay away from the hustle and bustle of the mountains and rivers. I climbed a high mountain and looked out at the verdant landscape, as if there was a power surging through me. I thought, maybe that's the wonder of life, it makes us feel the power of nature and makes us re-examine ourselves.
Next, I came to an old town with a unique cultural heritage and historical sites. I immersed myself in them and slowly felt the prosperity of the past and the passage of time. Every time I approach an old building, I can hear them tell their own story. These traces of vicissitudes make me think, how much time can be wasted in life?
Facing the breeze, I came to the sea. Standing on the shoreline, I looked at the rough sea, touched the water droplets, and seemed to feel the pulse of life. The sea has given me unlimited space for imagination and filled me with hope and courage for the future. I believe that as long as I dare to try, I can ride the tide of life and start a new chapter of my own.
And when I set foot in a strange land and into an unfamiliar culture, I found myself as if I had become a blank slate, ready to accept everything in this world. I experienced the local customs, tried the special food, talked to the locals, and listened to their stories. This experience not only broadened my horizons, but also made me more aware of the preciousness of life.
In the course of my travels, I met all kinds of people. Some people were helpful and kind to me, while others taught me how to protect myself and see people's hearts. It made me understand that in this world, we can't control the choices of others, but we can choose how and when to trust others.
When I returned from afar, my heart had changed dramatically. I truly understood that running away is not to escape from reality, but to make myself stronger and more mature, to have a broader vision and a broader mind.
In this adventure that belongs to me, I feel the beauty and infinite possibilities of life. Don't let yourself be stagnant water, but be brave enough to follow your dreams, that's the real life. Go out and see the diversity of the world, and make yourself more beautiful.
So, I want to tell everyone, if you have a dream, be brave enough to chase it. Don't worry about missing out, because in the process, we can really find ourselves and find our own feast.
