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.
