Even if you eventually succeed, taking it slow and appreciating with your heart will always allow you to discover the most beautiful scenery.
——Epigraph
At this moment, cicadas and birds are chirping outside the window. The hot air carries a hint of the fragrance of trees.
At this time, all the lights on the stage are shining on me. I am very confident and smoothly reciting in the competition. I believe that I will definitely succeed! After the recitation competition, the teachers present smiled with satisfaction and raised their scorecards. "Full marks!" At that moment, my heart was deeply moved.
And I know that the scenery behind me is the happiest.
When I received the notice to participate in the competition, I was really happy to receive it from there. This competition is a competition that I have been dreaming of, and I am determined to achieve a good result.
At night, when I returned home from school, I sat at the desk and wrote the recitation script without stopping for a moment. In the room, I only heard the sound of the pen tip on the paper, "shh-shh." At that moment, when writing the script, my thoughts were flowing, and I incorporated many beautiful sentences into the recitation script.
Stop, appreciate with your heart. Discover that moment's scenery, which is especially beautiful, happy, and full of struggle.
I took the final version of the script that I had revised countless times and started practicing.
"Oh, my motherland..."
Accompanied by beautiful music, I recited softly, adding gestures. Every evening, I could see the scenery of someone reciting seriously in a window by the Songya Lake.
Every day is like this. Every recitation brings a new experience, and every scenery is unique.
During that period of time, I could enjoy beautiful and unique scenery every evening, watching myself practice continuously. Truly, hardship, struggle, harvest, beauty, every evening's appreciation with my heart is unique.
Finally, we entered the rehearsal stage, and all the participants gathered together. I cherished every rehearsal stage even more.
During that period of time, I worked hard to improve every movement, language, and expression, striving to do my best!
Every time, my rehearsal time was not enough, and I would secretly practice alone after everyone left.
During that period of time, I secretly practiced, and the scenery during rehearsals made me feel refreshed and delighted.
In the end, all the lights on the stage were shining on me. During the recitation, I calmly applied all the techniques I had gained from those moments and scenery to the final competition. After reciting, the judges and teachers smiled with satisfaction and raised their scorecards. "Full marks!"
"You are undoubtedly the most perfect!" The judge patted my shoulder and said.
At that moment, the scenery on the stage was undoubtedly the most beautiful, happy, and joyful.
By appreciating the scenery with heart, you will be able to discover the gifts from life - struggle and persistence. This scenery is the most wonderful!
