Just the other night, I was driving into the underground parking lot of my house when a group of older women were dancing. Yes, it's cold, but the dancing can't stop. So, the square dance has become the underground parking lot dance, but the same serious, the same joy, the same as in no man's land.
The windows are closed, so you can't hear the music.
So the scene of a group of people silently shaking their hands and twisting their hips suddenly hit the funny bone.
Then, today, I came across this quote shared by Wen Qian -
"Those who can't hear the music think those who dance are crazy."
(Wen Qian is the anchor who recorded all of the published works in the "Our Remarkable Elementary School" series under my authorization. You can find it and listen to it on Himalayan FM).
Lately, what I've been reading most in my circle of friends is the annual narratives of my peers.
It's very emotional.
In the system of thirteen years, we to the end of the year to write a summary, is the task, but also have a debriefing meeting or something, or collective or group, we read, some read their own tears, some listening to others in tears. Finally, the bonus is issued, a meal, go home for the New Year. For such a summary, heart to write, I'm afraid not much. A lot of people ah, have this experience - to change the year, it will be enough to cope with.
I was serious. I have written more than 7,000 words in one breath, so that when I read it, I was embarrassed to read the whole text, so I read the beginning and the end, and the middle of the list of a few entries, even if it is. Because I also know, I write seriously, we may not listen carefully. What's more, thirteen years down the road, no matter whether I write or do not write this summary with all my heart, what "excellent" what "advanced" after all, did not get a hand.
And my peers? Oh, my WeChat address book, listed under the label "peers", there are six or seven hundred. I'm talking about the dozen or so who write and post their annual narratives to their friends - and they're either teachers at Nanming's schools or in the Whole Person Beauty Teachers' Union. Obviously, I will offend a larger group of my peers by honoring them here ...... begging for forgiveness. But I'm going to write down my feelings anyway.
Big gasp - then - where is this group of my peers? No one asked him or her to write ah, people write, and sprawling, the least must have a three or five thousand words ...... word count is of course only one aspect, more important is to read this word for word, hot, warm heart, benefited from a lot of feelings.
They, ah, are writing for themselves, they, ah, write not their own life, but life.
In these words, where there is self-aggrandizement, where there is self-hatred, where there are grandiose words ...... is the narrative, is contemplation, is to know the shortcomings, is brave to start again.
Also with these words, we can see is that they are not just teaching, but to live a complete and happy educational life, is to do a desire for self-realization of the free people.
I, for one, am ashamed of myself.
Yes, to be honest with you, there are a lot of reasons why I posted that My 2018, One Sentence Summary is Enough. Such as really read my public number of you, certainly through my many articles this year to understand the trajectory of my life, why draw a snake? Such as I was really busy those days, do not come down for a calm sorting out, can not write. But the most important reason, is that "a fist pounded the Yellow Crane Tower, a foot kicked over the Parrot Island. The scene in front of me can not be said, Roy Cui inscription poem on the top."
Oh, that's wrong! I don't dare to compare myself to Li Taibai! In front of the masters, I am more like the arrogant Song Gongming ......
This time, I went back to Zhengzhou, a big gain is to meet with Liu Xiao brother. Although it was too hasty, just a meal.
He said, reading your articles, I found that since you arrived in Yuncheng, self-reflection and even give yourself a pat on the back more emotions, why is this?
Of course it's because the environment has changed, and that's what I'm looking forward to, as Mr. Gan Guoxiang said, "Wang Gang, you need a field."
What field? It is such a field where the masters gather. Ideas only experience collision and even sharpened each other, to be able to sublimation, there is no discussion, it is difficult to produce insights.
The gentleman's way, such as traveling far must be from the distance, such as climbing high must be humble.
After listening to me tell my colleagues how to read how to teach and research the story, Liu Xiao brother also nodded recognition. As the leader of The Education Times, he certainly understands this feeling, because his team, too, has such a group of people who are thirsty for knowledge and vain as fools.
He said, "There are things that are sweet for some and avoided by others."
That's right!
Teachers in Nanming have spent a lot of effort on education and teaching, and it is hard to count, but they are happy to do it because they are doing what they want to do, and even more so, they are able to promote their own growth. How many people will give a thumbs up to the teachers of Nanming, but not everyone will choose to be such a teacher, even if there is a higher pay.
Everyone, has their own path ah ......
"Those who can not hear the music, think those who dance crazy."
Teachers in the schools under the banner of Nanming, how many stories ...... Just in terms of resolutely leaving their comfort zone, whether it is Gan Guoxiang Wei Zhiyuan Wang Zhijiang, three chief principals, or Ma Ling Chen Mei Yan Yingman Zhang Chunyan as the representative of the teachers, in the eyes of outsiders, it is unabashedly crazy!
We just heard the music.
We can not help but dance with joy.
On the evening of December 31, 2018, we gathered to talk about our hopes for 2019.
Ms. Wu Chuanying said how much she hoped that in 2019, Zhengzhou would have a middle school in Nanming.
Her home is in Zhengzhou, just like me.
I think this is also the wish of many, many people, so that the more ideal education represented by Nanming, so that the more beautiful curriculum represented by the beauty of the whole person, in more cities and villages to land, so that more children and adults benefit.
Then let the music play.
Then let more ears be awakened.
Then, let more hearts be set ablaze with hope.
