Meet the beautiful rainbow, meet your beautiful self

I got up early yesterday morning and finished washing. When I was passing by the corridor, I accidentally glanced out the window and was pleasantly surprised to find a double rainbow hanging on the horizon. The span was very large and beautiful. Thinking back, the last time I saw such a clear rainbow was several years ago in college. At that time, several girls rushed to tell each other among the dormitories on our floor, looking extremely excited. In the end, almost the entire balcony of the dormitory floor There are girls who are looking at the rainbow hanging on the horizon and discussing this beautiful scenery with each other.

After so many years, the scene of watching the rainbow still appears so vivid and clear in the memory. Perhaps the rare beauty can always be remembered freshly. However, the opportunities we have to encounter such beautiful things are too few and they are not enough to offset the trivial worries of daily life. Therefore, rather than encountering this unexpectedly, I am now more willing to actively look for it.

In fact, I used to like to be alone. I liked to be alone when I went to the library to read books. I also preferred to enjoy watching movies in the dormitory alone. This kind of time was very free and I didn’t need to deliberately accommodate others. . Because there are few social activities, my life has a relatively fixed operating mode. Many things are arranged in a fixed time period in an orderly manner. Unless there are special circumstances, this kind of life that is as solid as a triangle will not be broken. Continue to run on its original track.

However, humans are a social species after all. When I met Miss S, some subtle changes took place in my life, and this small change in life slowly penetrated into my thinking. , change the habits that you have formed unconsciously before. Miss S is a girl who is very different from me. She likes to try new things and doesn’t like to be constrained to do the same thing in the same place. She dares to take risks and is not afraid of losing. She once hiked across the coastline with a group and also I once took a trip alone to celebrate my birthday. For her, life is not monotonous and repetitive day after day. There are new elements that embellish life every day, such as growing flowers, doing handicrafts, and researching new dishes. In her opinion, these small things are sources of fun. . Every time I chat with her, she always shares with me the latest news in her life. Influenced by her, I also began to try to find those interesting things around me that I had ignored before, and encountered those small blessings in life.

Thinking about it now, maybe I was originally a closed person, someone who was unwilling to take risks and afraid to try. I will make a prediction of "usefulness" or "uselessness" for what I am about to do in anticipation. I will refuse to do something if the end result may not satisfy my expectations. When something is recognized by my values, then I will do it. Later, I discovered that when a person has been in a relatively closed environment for a long time, it is difficult for all his thoughts and behaviors to escape from this environment and make great changes. It is said that people are the product of the environment. This sentence does hold true. There is a certain truth.

When Miss S broke through the wall in my heart and showed her and her life in front of me, I saw more possibilities in life. These possibilities require me to break through my siege and keep trying things that I have no interest in before I can truly understand whether they are something I really don’t need or whether I am rejecting them because of my original ignorance. I regard this process as an important stage of self-growth. When I am willing to take one foot towards the dense jungle, I have already entered into a struggle with the "old self". During this period, whether I encounter snakes, insects, rats, ants, return to the same place and make a new choice, or continue after finding a treasure Moving forward, it is all about the "new me" territory that I have slowly explored and revised.

The true growth of a person is not that he will not make mistakes again, but that he is not afraid of making mistakes and has the ability to correct them. When a person no longer has a mentality of fear and rejection when facing an unknown field, he will enter the fast lane of growth, and meeting his beautiful self will become a matter of course. I am glad that I became a member of the exploration team and embarked on the journey again. Friends say that seeing a rainbow indicates that good luck is coming. I think so. Good things are around us, and a better self is in the near future.
