On Tiptoe: Reaching for Dreams |
|
When we stand on tiptoe, in reality, we don't gain much height. When we
stand on tiptoe, sometimes our small wishes are not fulfilled. When we stand
on tiptoe, perhaps we still fall a little short.
As children, we would always stand on tiptoe to reach for that big candy
box, only to helplessly watch it extend higher and higher. We longed to
touch our mischievous father's beard on tiptoe, but all we received was a
tickling sensation.
As we grew up, we discovered that we had a habit of standing on tiptoe, even
though the things we wanted to touch seemed so far out of reach. Perhaps it
was because we were captivated by the beauty of ballet and realized that
achieving that aesthetic required enduring the sharp pain that came from
standing on tiptoe. We often see satisfaction and happiness in the smiles of
ballet dancers, sensing their love for ballet. For them, the pain of
standing on tiptoe is always overshadowed by the joy of standing on the
dream stage. Or perhaps it was because we finally obtained that big candy
box and touched our father's mischievous beard, realizing that we had grown
up.
Every time I reach the summit of a mountain, I have a habit of standing on
tiptoe and looking around, as if I can see further. Every time I gaze at the
beautiful starry sky, I always enjoy standing on tiptoe and looking up, as
if I believe that if I stretch a little higher, I can touch those lovely
stars. Every time exam results are announced, I secretly stand on tiptoe, as
if it can raise my scores a bit higher. I constantly, diligently stand on
tiptoe, wanting to stand taller, taller, so that my vision becomes broader
and my soul more open.
With the act of standing on tiptoe comes goals and a direction to move
forward. When I can't see the scenery I desire on tiptoe, I will aim for a
higher mountain, climb to its peak, and stand on tiptoe there. When I stand
on tiptoe and don't hear the whispers of the stars, I will seek a more
beautiful starry sky and stand on tiptoe. When standing on tiptoe doesn't
yield the desired results, I will study harder so that the next time exam
scores are announced, I can stand on tiptoe and touch better results,
strengthening my confidence.
With the act of standing on tiptoe comes pursuit, determination to achieve
ideals.
With the act of standing on tiptoe comes the journey from "To see a thousand
miles, one must walk a step further" to "When one stands on the summit, one
overlooks all the other mountains."
With the act of standing on tiptoe, we can continuously chase after our
dreams.
Dreams are like beautiful ballet, perhaps we must endure the pain of
standing on tiptoe. On the path of pursuing our dreams, we must always stand
on tiptoe, persist and believe that we can ultimately transform touching our
ideals into realizing them. |
