If I were a boy again, I would school myself into a habit of attention; I would let nothing come between me and the subject in hand. I would remember that a good skater never tries to skate in two directions at once.
The habit of attention becomes part of our life, if we begin early enough. I often hear grown up people say, I could not fix my attention on the sermon or book, although I wished to do so, and the reason is, the habit was not formed in youth.
If I were to live my life over again, I would pay more attention to the cultivation of the memory. I would strengthen that faculty by every possible means, and on every possible occasion. It takes a little hard work at first to remember things accurately; but memory soon helps itself, and gives very little trouble. It only needs early cultivation to become a power.
If I were a boy again, I would cultivate courage. Nothing is so mild and gentle as courage, nothing so cruel and pitiless as cowardice, says a wise author.
We too often borrow trouble, and anticipate that may never appear. The fear of ill exceeds the ill we fear. Dangers will arise in any career, but presence of mind will often conquer the worst of them. Be prepared for any fate, and there is no harm to be feared.
六年前,我,六岁的时候,外婆把我送到了采荷二小,让尹老师教导我。那时,我只是个不谙世事的小娃娃,不论做什么事都需要老师和家长的帮助。
记得那时,我还不太会用筷子吃饭,外婆手把手地教我。刚开始还“天女散花”散得满地米粒,与其说我吃了一碗饭,倒不如说我倒了一碗饭,可是外婆既不打我也不骂我,仍旧耐心地教,直到我学会为止。
而六年后的今天,当我即将走出校园,走出我生活六年的“第二个家”的时候,我猛然发现——我,长大了。现在的我,不再是那个什么也不懂的小娃娃了,我渐渐成熟了。那一次,妈妈对我说:“女儿啊,今天妈妈晚上要去录像,不能在家,今晚你一个人在家,好吗?”说完,妈妈收拾了一些东西,走了,剩下我一个人,这是我第一次自己在家。刚开始还挺兴奋的,后来随着天黑下来了,太阳也不见踪影,最后,甚至连夕阳的余辉都一点儿也找不到了的时候,我逐渐有点紧张,有点害怕了。晚上要做什么?我问自己。对了!刷牙、洗澡,然后就上床睡觉吧!想到这儿,我不那么手忙脚乱了,我开始自己干自己的事,先打开头龙,放出热水:“呀!好热!”太热了,我试着把水调凉一点……呼!真舒服,自己做完了,太有成就感啦!我好开心。
从这件事中我知道了——自己的事情自己做,你才能体会到快乐,体会到长大的滋味儿!
