Many years ago, I was a shy boy and lived a very peaceful life. I liked school but I felt bored.
And then I started the fourth grade. My teacher, Mrs. Chen, was a young woman who was good at writing, art and music. Her class was very interesting. With her help, I started Fun Club with some boys in my class. I also wrote a book called Through the Forest. And lots of my classmates liked it.
However, I was surprised when fifty years later I got a letter about a reunion (聚会). A few days later, we had a reunion at Mrs. Chen's home. Reconnecting with Mrs. Chen was a journey back in time. Fifty years have passed, but my teacher still remembers every student. She even doesn't forget the class bully (欺负) — a boy used to hit me with snowballs on my way to school. Lots of teachers thought bullying was nothing serious at that time, but Mrs. Chen didn't agree. She put a stop to it at once when she found out about it.
Now, in my mid-fifties, I appreciate the gifts Mrs. Chen has given me even more. It's never too late to say thanks to this fantastic teacher. I hope you are lucky enough to have one teacher like Mrs. Chen.

In the 1950s, a female swimming athlete set a goal for herself. She decided to swim across the English Channel before she retired. If she could make it, she would be the first person in the world who did it.
On that day, she jumped into the sea without any hesitation and swam towards the opposite bank.
In the journey, she faced heavy fog, heavy rain and heavy waves. Though she was very tired, she carried on swimming.
But in the end, she gave up. And what she didn't know at the moment she gave up was that the opposite bank was only I mile away.
Later people asked her about the reason. And she said:"The reason why I gave up is that I could not see the destination which I was so close to."
Too many success stories have been lecturing us about courage and persistence(坚持). But they never told us where to find courage and persistence.
You can have courage only when you know where your goal is. You can manage to persist only when you know where your goal is, and prepare yourself well mentally(心理上).
Courage and persistence never fall from the sky. They come from weighing between input and output.
A life without goals is like a ship without a compass. It goes nowhere. There is no courage or persistence in a life without goals.

A. being retired

B. Waves
