The importance of peaceful coexistence when you are away from home
My name is Lin Tao and I am an adventurer photographer. Growing up in a quiet town in the south, my parents were both teachers, and they taught me to be kind and respectful. Although I majored in photography in college, I always had a longing for the unknown world in my heart, and I wanted to record the beauty and wonder of this world with my lens.
After graduating, I packed my bags and embarked on a journey around the world. With my camera, I have traveled through many countries and cities, and recorded countless shocking landscapes and people. However, as I traveled, I gradually realized that being away from home and getting along with people was not always as easy as I thought.
Once, I came to a faraway country, where the natural scenery was intoxicating. I rented a motorbike and intend to explore the land in depth. However, just as I was driving on a country road, a speeding car suddenly burst out of the way and almost collided with me. I angrily stopped the car and got into an argument with the driver of the car.
The driver's name is Li Ming, and he is a local boy. He explained that he was in a hurry to take his sick mother to the hospital, so he drove it relatively quickly. But I was so carried away by the anger that I couldn't listen to his explanation. The argument between us became more and more intense, and we even started to push and shove.
Just then, a middle-aged man walked over. His name is Uncle Zhang, and he is the head of this village. Seeing this, he hurriedly stepped forward to dissuade us and separated us. Uncle Zhang patiently listened to our argument, and then said to me in a serious tone: "Young man, don't easily get into conflict with others when you go out. The people in this place are kind, but they also have their own habits and ways of doing things. We should respect them and live together peacefully. ”
I listened to Uncle Zhang's words, and my heart gradually calmed down. I realized that I had just acted impulsively and recklessly. I apologized to Li Ming and promised to pay more attention to my behavior in the future. Li Ming also accepted my apology and told me that his mother's condition had stabilized.
This experience made me deeply realize the importance of being away from home and getting along with people. I began to learn to respect and understand others, and to face all kinds of situations in life with a more peaceful mind. I've found that when I treat others with kindness and respect, they respond to me in the same way. My trip has become more enjoyable and fulfilling.
However, the real test is yet to come. One night, I was camping alone in a remote mountainous area. The night was getting darker, and there was silence all around. Suddenly, I heard a strange noise, as if something was approaching my camp. My heart raced and I nervously clenched the camera in my hand.
Just then, a figure appeared in my sight. He was armed with a knife and stared at me with a fierce look in his eyes. I realized that I might be in danger. I took a deep breath and tried to stay calm. I told myself that I couldn't easily clash with this person, and that I had to find a way to resolve the crisis.
I greeted the man with a smile and tried to ease the tension. I told him that I was just a passing photographer who came here to photograph the landscape. I took out my camera and showed him the photos I had taken earlier and told him that I loved the nature of the place. The man looked at my sincere smile and the photo in my hand, and the fierceness in his eyes gradually subsided.
He told me that his name was Cuong and that he was a villager from a nearby village. He mistakenly thought I was a bad guy who had come here to poach, so he came to me with a knife. I explained to him who I was and what I was here for, and assured him that I wouldn't spoil the environment. After listening to me, Cuong put down the knife in his hand and invited me to his village.
Led by Cuong, I came to his village. I was warmly received by the villagers and prepared a sumptuous dinner for me. They told me the stories and traditions of the place and gave me a deeper understanding of the culture and history of the place.
This experience made me realize the importance of peaceful coexistence when you are away from home. I've realized that sometimes a small misunderstanding or conflict can have serious consequences. And when we treat others with kindness and respect, we can often resolve crises and resolve conflicts.
I will keep this lesson in mind for the rest of my journey. I use my camera to record more beautiful moments and heartwarming stories, and share these stories with more people. I hope that my experience can inspire and help those who are away from home, so that they too can face all kinds of situations in life with kindness and respect.
Today, I have traveled to many countries and cities, but this experience is one that I will never forget. It made me deeply appreciate the importance of peaceful coexistence outside the home, and it also made me cherish the friendship and friendship with others even more. I believe that in the future journey, I will continue to face all kinds of challenges and difficulties in life with kindness and respect.
