[Reading] "A Seagull in the World" - If you love flying, you can't give up even if you are hungry

 "Most gulls don't think flying is important, eating is the most important thing. Jonathan Levins the seagull loves flying more than anything."

The story is about a little seagull named Jonathan. He loves flying, even though his parents said, "Flying is a good thing, but you can't eat it! Don't forget that the purpose of flying is to eat." None of these obstacles could stop his passion for flying. Through diligent practice, he developed a superb flying technique, but he was excluded from being recognized by the people around him.

He left that environment and continued to follow freedom, working harder to improve his flying skills, and now he can catch more fish with less effort through the skills he has learned. At this moment, he is not complacent. He decides to devote himself to teaching and teach this method to the little seagull who yearns to fly like him. And some of the little seagulls taught it to other students, but after the passage of time, it evolved into an occasional worship. The little seagulls thought that by understanding the flight secrets of their idols, they could soar in the sky like him, but they ignored the importance of hard work. , painting to limit himself to think that he will never reach that realm.

Jonathan's teacher Sullivan said: "Do you know how many lives we have to go through before we finally realize that there is more to life than eating, arguing, and having rights?"

This book is very short and can be read in about an hour. The story is simple, but the meaning conveyed is profound. After tasting it carefully, let it keep circling in your mind and taste the meaning of your freedom.

After reading it made me think of Ann, a teenager who loves acting.

As a teenager, he loved theatre and had told his parents about going to high school theatre in the north. As a matter of course, Er was rejected: "Study hard, don't think too much." But due to reality, he temporarily gave up and entered a regular high school. Once again, he was at the stage of choosing a department for the university entrance exam. He did not forget his original intention to choose a drama department. When his parents found out, they said coldly: "Art can't be eaten as a meal. Be realistic!" He once again abandoned his ambition for his parents. However, these obstacles did not dampen his love for drama. From time to time, he participated in drama classes at his own expense, but he felt regretful when he thought about it. He often asked himself: "If I was not so obedient in the past, would my future be different?"

"To fly as fast as you want, and to go anywhere, you have to know you've got there."

Everyone’s life has many ties, and it’s not always possible to do whatever you want. Realities and financial circumstances may force you to choose a less happy path.

I would like to tell Ann or anyone else who has suffered the same way: "Don't give up on your dreams, and don't limit yourself by age. You are free, you just keep forgetting! The past, good or bad, has come to pass. At this moment, you , who struggled and climbed up from the mud, are stronger than ever and know how to avoid thorns. Every setback will strengthen your wings and make you fly higher and farther. Come on!”
