Hi ~ 19-year-old Ling Xinyu's parents, tomorrow is my birthday ~ Different from the past, this time I want to write a letter to my dearest person in the world.
During my lunch break yesterday, I dreamed that my mother smiled and asked me if I wanted to eat her fish hot pot, which my father had just caught. I woke up at once, opened my eyes, and realized that I was leaving home for a month soon. My nose was a little sour, I took a deep breath and closed my eyes again. My mind was full of warm scenes at home ...
When I was a child, I was proud and headstrong, and I thought everything I said was correct. I thought there was nothing I couldn't do. I thought there was a generation gap between my parents and myself, and I didn't know myself well enough. I always think that other people's parents are better for their children, and they only want to go to a city far from home when they grow up ... < P > Now, studying alone in Tianjin, I can't help but sigh how naive I used to be. Probably from boarding, home is more like a hotel for me. I stop in a hurry and then pack my bags and leave. The difference is that when I leave, I still have a sad and worried look behind me. Now, it's even more so ...
When I left home this time, my father took me to the airport. On the way, my father asked if he wanted to take me to the waiting room. At first, he felt troublesome, and then he answered, "Forget it, I can do it alone. Please go back to rest early." After listening to it, he was silent for a while and asked again, "Are you sure you don't need it? I'll just stop the car, soon. " Listening to his cautious tone, I agreed. Then I dragged my suitcase, lined up to print my boarding pass, and finally entered the security gate. The security line was very long. I looked back and found that my father was still looking at me. I waved to my father and motioned him to leave. Perhaps because the distance was too long, my father didn't understand what I meant, and rushed over. Then I said to him, "Go home first, get up so early, and go back and have a good rest." Father answered, then told a few words and left. Looking at the back of his departure, my tears swirled in my eyes. My father was not very tall, and he was not so conspicuous in the crowd. Although he was not good at words, he always tried his best to provide me with the best life. My mother often joked: "It is said that my daughter was my father's lover in his last life. Now it seems that it is really the case."
I am always glad that my parents are very concerned about me. Because it is a daughter, parents always have more worries. Hearing me say that I will lose weight and not eat, I am worried that I will starve my stomach; Hearing that I'm going out for a party, I'm worried that I'll meet some bad people. Seeing some news about the murder of female college students on the internet, I can't help nagging. The hunger and coldness of my brother and I seem to determine their joys and sorrows. So my parents, please rest assured that I will take good care of myself. I know that is the greatest filial piety for you.
I am always glad that my parents are very clever. They don't show off their wealth or cry poor. In the past, I often had a doubt, is our family rich after all? When I was in junior high school, I was envious when I saw my classmates wearing shoes with a price of eight or nine hundred yuan. My mother and I said I would wear them, but my mother refused, which led me to think that our family could not afford a pair of Nike for a long time. But every year, my parents will take my brother and me out to play, or the whole family will have a big meal together, which makes me feel that our family doesn't seem to be particularly poor. Now I understand that this is my parents' educational view. They don't show off their wealth, because they are really well-off, and there is no need to make unnecessary comparisons with others. Later, I learned that in fact, many students are not as rich as they look. In order to save face, they do not hesitate to have a big fight with their parents just to change a pair of shoes. Mom and dad don't cry poor, and they satisfy their most comfortable life within their power. This kind of life makes my brother and I look forward to the future. I once asked my brother and was pleasantly surprised to find that we all hope to take our parents around the world through our own abilities. My parents' view of education has made me realize the benefits in college. No longer envy those students who have a lot of living expenses every month, but plan 1511 every month well. Although there is no surplus, it can meet my basic life. Moreover, I often feel the joy of buying myself a new dress and the entanglement and excitement of saving money to travel.
When I was a child, my mother asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I said I wanted to be a writer, so they made me a small reporter for Zhuzhou Daily. Later, I wanted to be a translator, so they sent me to an English training class. They always try their best to meet my requirements. I know they are full of expectations for me, but I seem to be getting worse and worse, disappointing them more and more. But they never lost heart and always thought their daughter was the best. Today, I am 19 years old, and now I am no longer so vague about my future planning. Now I pick up the words again, hoping to record this warm world in my spare time; Seize the time to learn English, hoping that one day, it will become my sharpest weapon; More specifically, I will study my professional knowledge hard, strengthen my knowledge reserve, and strive to pass the judicial examination and become an excellent lawyer. I know that this road will not be smooth, and I will never be kind to girls, but I am not afraid, and I will go on step by step.
My parents once said to me, "Society is a big dye vat, full of all kinds of people. As parents, we only have two requirements: first, you should learn to distinguish right from wrong, what is right and who is worthy of deep friendship, and keep an eye on everything; Second, although the world is a bit bad, you should still believe in something. Although society is a big dye vat, as parents, I hope my children can keep that truth, keep that sincerity, be kind and live happily. Mom and dad don't ask you to be rich and expensive, just ask you to be safe and healthy ... "These words have a subtle influence on me. I am very grateful. What my parents want is just your peace, happiness and kindness.
I always think that I am still the child who should be taken care of. I always feel that I am still very young, but when I think about it, I am already 19 years old, and I am also a person who is sometimes called aunt when I walk on the road. How long do I want my parents to take care of me? I want to be better, and I hope I can take care of my parents. But sometimes I think, do I want to be better? My Excellence means being busier, being farther away from my parents, and being more lonely. Fortunately, there is a younger brother who can stay at home with them now, but he is going to pursue his distant place after all ... < P > Yes, our world is very big, and the mountains and rivers are vast and empty in Wan Li; My parents' world is very small, so small that only a part of us can return to the earth. In the past, I always thought that there was a long way to go, and I always thought that there would be a day when I would return to my hometown with my clothes on, so I could do my filial piety calmly. But I have always forgotten, forget the cruelty of time, forget the shortness of life, forget the fragility of life itself ...
Time, time, please slow down, so that my parents can always be healthy and not get old; Time, time, please hurry up, so that my brother and I can be alone and have the ability to take care of my parents ... < P > Today, I am 19 years old. This letter is addressed to my parents. Thank you for taking pains to bring up the crying baby. This letter is also written to myself. I hope that at the age of 19, you can be more mature and calm, be able to keep a pleasant countenance when you are tired, make progress slowly, and live brilliantly in the dull days.
Finally, I want to say to my parents-in fact, your children love you more than you think ...
