It's time to take my brother on a trip!

Glancing at the workload in August, I thought it was time to start my annual trip, so I took a week off without hesitation. Where are you going? Go with who? None of this seems important. The important thing is to embrace the unknown scenery soon, and the mood will suddenly become good.

Go with who? This is a good proposition. Since graduation, my travel has become more and more lawless, and my classmates trapped by working hours have become less and less able to get together. So what's wrong with traveling? Unscrupulous, although bumpy, but began to enjoy; It may be inconvenient, but wherever I go, I can feel my inner desire. For the distance, fear and expectation! I thought it was still a solo tour, but the trip of my colleague and brother inspired me: anyway, it happened to be my brother's summer vacation, so a "brother-in-law tour" seemed not bad! After learning that my brother was also interested in this, my travel partner decided so rashly and happily.

In others' eyes, maybe it's just a good sister who is willing to take care of her brother and think about her brother, so she will be willing to take her brother out to play. To tell the truth, this hat is a little high for me. Anyone who knows me knows that I am not that sentimental. It is true to be kind to my brother, but traveling is not my ultimate goal.

Compared with the people around me, maybe I am lucky enough: I walked from the countryside to the town to study in middle school, and then from the town to Shanghai to study in university. I remember seeing someone write about whether it is important to study there. For me, this is very important. Four years' study in Shanghai, the development of my knowledge by my teachers and the influence of my classmates and locals on my thoughts have shaped me today.

The first thing I found after coming to Shanghai was: I am weak! Really weak! Every aspect! English is not as good as others, and knowledge is not as wide as others. Even the learning methods that should be proud of before are instantly submerged in the elites here. Not to mention the average talent, average appearance and average family background. Before I came to Shanghai, I heard that Shanghai was exclusive. In fact, there is no exclusivity, just competition! You are weak and PK by others; If you are strong and others are sour, there will be stronger people competing with you. This is the atmosphere of free competition given by this city.

Later, I found that others are strong for a reason: others skate English because a relative is abroad and he goes to his relatives' home for a holiday every year; Others have a wide range of knowledge because they go in and out of the Children's Palace, and their parents at home have also paid attention to edification since childhood; Others learn well because countless teachers give him different suggestions. He can gather the strengths of many families. Without these resources, I can only make up the gap in my own way. The process is very painful, and it can never be done overnight. So until today, I'm still making up my homework, which neither the teacher nor my parents mentioned before.

Since I started to make up this homework from college, now I know the existence of this homework. Naturally, I hope my brother can know it earlier and make up it earlier than me. Therefore, this strengthened my idea of taking my brother to travel far away. Let's see: get to know the other side of the world early; I have experienced different scenery earlier; I faced the weakness of loneliness earlier; Meet all kinds of firsts in life early. Later, I told my brother how many times this trip created his first experience: the first trip (free travel), the first time to take the high-speed rail alone, the first time to take the subway, the first time to fly, the first time to come to the north of the motherland, the first time to try the special flavor of the north, the first time to see the grassland, the first time to ride a horse, the first time to eat western food, the first time to take pictures at a 3D art exhibition, and the first time to bring local specialties to my family …

I was born in the countryside, but I am a farmer, and I have a certain distance from planting rice in the field next door. But it can't be ignored that the traditional rural thought is still prevalent in my family. Other aspects are ok, but my mother is a strong opponent of tourism. On the whole, I am still a good country girl. "Good" means that I will still follow the teachings of my elders most of the time. So when I was dragged to travel by my roommate in college, the first reaction was not to go, and the second reaction was to travel. Isn't there money to burn? Later, because my roommate couldn't find other suitable friends, he offered to help me bear the accommodation expenses, and the trip finally took place. I'm a little embarrassed to think about it now. I stayed in Xitang before I went far. I expected a two-day trip, but it turned out that Xitang is an ancient town that only takes two hours to measure by foot, so the trip was compressed into one day and one night, and then I was disappointed. But since then, I have left a seed in my heart to see more scenery in the distance, waiting for germination.

Some time ago, the news suddenly broke out that many "silly girls committed suicide because they were cheated of tuition fees." Many people can't help quarreling while accusing the liar. Nowadays, girls are so fragile that they can always think of suicide. Then immediately a big V jumped out and said, What do you know? You don't know the weight of money for rural children. As a child born in the countryside, I really understand what such a sum of money means to us. It is not only the huge sum collected in half a year, but also the expectation from relatives and friends. The more you are at the bottom, the more you will feel that you owe something bad, not to mention a debt of gratitude! Therefore, after I was admitted to the university, I strongly opposed holding a celebration wine at home. Rural children who are a little more sensible will understand that every sum of money is not easy under the influence of their parents. Of course, this does not mean that such children know how to "save" their own lives, but they are inevitably at a loss when faced with "huge amounts of money" consumption.

There was an episode in the journey. At that time, we entered a restaurant. He glanced at the menu and said to me, Sister, shall we change to another restaurant? Just eat a meal for more than ten dollars! Then I looked at the price and thought it was actually ok, not a very outrageous price. At that time, my mood was actually very complicated, a little sad, a little distressed, a little angry, and I thought he was a little sensible. Later, I took him to that restaurant to eat and told him: If it is a tour, of course, you should eat better! At that moment, I was very scared: it is such a well-known concept of "saving" that restricts us from spending unnecessary money on travel and trying anything "expensive", so we never know what that experience is like. At the same time, I am very glad to bring him here this time and give him more ideas and experiences of "crossing the border"!

Even though I have traveled many times, every time I talk to my mother about this topic, she still has many objections: traveling is too tired, too wasteful, meaningless, what should I do if there is danger outside, and so on. In fact, when traveling abroad, I know more about the weight behind every reason she said, but the only thing she said wrong: travel is so meaningful! Preparing for a trip will exercise a person's planning ability; Travel will exercise a person's courage and adaptability; What you have seen and talked about during the trip will be a highlight of your life experience.

Of course, the most important thing is the initial intention of tourism: to remain curious and explore the world. Everyone's eyes should not only stare at themselves, because a little emotional ups and downs can hurt autumn and spring, or they are completely self-centered, insensitive to the outside world and unable to see the efforts and feelings of others. The former is fragile and the latter is easily destroyed. In the second day of junior high school, I felt that the earth revolved around me, and my greatness was not understood by the world, but adolescence was the last fairy tale period they needed to be guided through. They may keep brushing videos, novels and even games, but in the end they still can't fill in the empty parts inside. So teenagers, it may be a good way to get out, feel the strangeness of nature and touch the traces of the world.

This trip has completed many firsts for him, and there are also many firsts he is not used to. For example, he complained to me that he was too tired and the place he went seemed boring. For example, he tried the characteristics of the north. He took a bite of haggis and threw it all to me. Later, he said that the pasta mutton in the north was not used to it at all, and he still didn't digest it. But there will be happy times, the grassland is not as lush as expected, but the feeling of galloping on horseback finally makes this 16-year-old boy laugh; Taking photos at the 3D art exhibition also made the embarrassed teenager willing to take the initiative to take photos, although he was handsome from beginning to end. ...

I was completely angry when he expressed his dissatisfaction with the trip. I didn't take the initiative to participate in it, but I kept finding fault. When I was most angry, I said on the spot: I will never travel with you again! Later, when communicating with colleagues, she told me: this is actually a manifestation of his inadaptability. When he first traveled, he didn't know what would happen. Everything will be fine in the future. As a result, he found himself running around, walking all the time, eating unfamiliar ... the whole person is not good! I am very inspired. I always wonder how a young boy is not interested in this and that. I think this should be the closest correct answer. Colleagues say you need to run twice more. The second trip between her and her brother was much smoother than the first. At the first time, his brother didn't cooperate in all aspects. At the second time, her brother even helped to inquire about where to play and what means of transportation to take, so that she could adapt to the pace of travel. After hearing what she said, I think I should try again!

The process will be very painful and even ruin my original good mood. But I know that after the first experience, he will not be afraid of the second. He is a rebellious boy, still immersed in his own world, but occasionally he shows curiosity about new things, tries and learns strange things, and laughs awkwardly when you talk to him seriously. I know he will be better in the future.

Now besides the tour itself, I'm also looking forward to my second trip with him. I'm a little excited!

PS: Actually, I was scared when I published this article. After all, there are still some ideas that are very different from ordinary people. This is not a traditional inspirational article, but my dream is too far away. I just want to make reality better. It would be great if everyone were better! ! !
