Huang Chengyan, a female college student from rural Chongqing, chose to go to the countryside as a social worker after graduation, although the salary is not high, but she has been working for three years. After the end of the three-year residency project, she returned to her hometown to continue her rural social work career. She said that she wanted more young people to see that there was hope for rural development. (According to China Youth Network on October 27)

Rural people want to go to the city, people in small cities want to go to big cities, and people in second- and third-tier cities want to go to first-tier cities, and this kind of "people going to a higher place" concept of choosing a career is very common and deep-rooted, so that it seems like a constant truth. But Huang Chengyan's choice is to hold up a long pen when everyone is crowded on the bridge and rush to the place where the neon shines, and go to the greener grass.

Social work services, which refer specifically to non-profit professional and professional activities that serve the vulnerable, have been considered purely voluntary labor and are difficult to consider as a lifelong occupation. However, with the development of society, more and more people have entered the professional social work team and are active in various social service departments at the grass-roots level. Unlike volunteers, social workers are paid, but they also need to have a professional background and qualifications, and have systematic values and ethical systems. Professional social workers have a very positive role in helping social services such as grassroots social governance and support for vulnerable groups. And this kind of work is exactly what requires the participation of young people with energy, vitality and love.

A female college student who runs to the countryside to work as a social worker seems to be a very "marginalized" choice, but in fact, there are more and more young people who make this "non-mainstream" choice. Some people go back to their hometowns to help sell agricultural products live, some people go to the countryside to support teaching to light up the hearts of children, some people go back to their hometowns to start a business and lead the villagers to get rich together, and there are people like Huang Chengyan who devote themselves to grass-roots service work, help and comfort the elderly and children in rural areas, help them solve practical life difficulties, and enrich their spiritual world. These things, not to say that they are great, but they will also make people feel that they are quite meaningful.

This meaning is not a one-sided sacrifice and dedication, but a two-way care and achievement. Judging from the news video, Huang Chengyan herself also likes social work, otherwise, she would not continue to work on this job after the end of the three-year project, and think of many ways to make the work better and more exciting. People in the village told her that having you would make these old people happier. Don't talk about herself, others will be happy and satisfied with such pure recognition when they hear this.

The revitalization and development of rural areas needs the help of more young people. Now the appearance and environment of many villages have been greatly improved, and they are much more convenient, much cleaner, and more comfortable. Compared with the city, although the relative opportunities are less and the conditions are worse, the corresponding pressure is not so great, the pace is not so fast, and the sense of purity and freedom of "returning to the countryside" is also attractive to some young people. People who yearn for field life, go to their idyllic hometowns, help rural revitalization and common prosperity, realize social values at the same time, but also harvest self-growth, who can say, this is not a win-win situation?

Whether it is the city, the countryside, the elite of the large factory, the grass-roots social worker, choose a career, just look at the location and treatment is not enough, just rely on full of enthusiasm is not enough, or to understand the content of the work, assess its meaning and value, listen to the call of their hearts, go to the place they yearn for, find the most harmonious state of their own and the profession, do a line of love, in order to have a bright future.
