#头条首发大赛#在这个蝉鸣渐起. In the sun-dappled season, another year of graduation season is quietly coming. On campus, young figures in bachelor's uniforms shuttle through every inch of the land that is familiar and about to become memories, and the air is filled with the smell of parting and infinite longing for the future. Behind this vision, many families are quietly staging a warm and slightly anxious conversation about "work" and "dreams".
My Xiaojie is one of the thousands of graduates this year. I remember that on the eve of graduation, he said excitedly: "Mom, don't worry, I have planned the future, and I am ready to draw a big 'pie' first, and then realize it step by step!" "At that time, I was both relieved and curious, thinking that this child had finally grown up and had his own goals and blueprints.
But as time went on, when relatives and friends around me asked about Xiaojie's work, my heart was like being struck by a thunderstorm on a summer afternoon, and I had mixed feelings for a while. It turns out that the "big pie" in Xiaojie's mouth is not a stable job contract or a high-salary offer as I understand it, but a grand plan about entrepreneurship and innovation. He dreamed of developing an app that would change people's lifestyles and make the world a better place because of his ideas.
I laughed and was saddened. He laughs at his courage and dreams, and worries about the difficulty and unknown of this road. I began to worry about whether this child, who had just stepped out of the ivory tower, could really withstand the pressure of reality and turn that seemingly unattainable "big pie" into reality little by little.
So, one evening, we sat on the balcony, made two cups of tea, and had a heart-to-heart conversation. I told him that Mom doesn't support your dreams, but just hopes that you can learn to be down-to-earth while chasing your dreams. I shared some of my experiences when I was younger, stories of failure and perseverance, challenges and growth. I told him that everyone has a "big pie" on their way to growth, and the key is how we face it – whether it is an excuse to escape from reality or a motivation to keep moving forward.
Xiao Jie listened very carefully, and his eyes flashed with a more determined light. He said, "Mom, I understand. I will find a job first, gain experience, and at the same time not give up the pursuit of that 'big pie'. I believe that as long as I keep working hard, one day, I will be able to make that 'pie' a reality. ”
At that moment, I seemed to see what his future would look like, no longer the boy who could only paint cakes, but a young man who dared to chase his dreams and take responsibility. It's graduation season again, and perhaps many families are experiencing similar stories. But remember, every child is unique, and the "big pie" in their hands may be the seed that changes the world. As parents, what we can do is to give them enough understanding and support, so that they can move forward bravely on the road to pursue their dreams.
