My thoughts after learning the famous novel
The old man and the sea
In the past a few days, we learned something about a novel called the old man and the sea, after learning it, I have some thoughts about it.
The story introduced an old experienced fisherman to us. His name is Santiago. He has not caught any fish for 84 days, so the 85th day, he went to the deep sea, trying to get some fish. It was a hard time when Santiago floated on the sea for almost 3 days in order to catch a big fish called marlin. Finally, he made it. But unfortunately, the smell of blood attracted a lot of sharks. At last, all his effort to drive away the sharks was in vain. His marlin was eaten up, and he still got nothing.
Although the consequence was not so good, I still believe that Santiago is a real hero. A hero, not means that he is never afraid of anything, but means that he is really afraid, but he never gives up. This is hero. In addition, his words in this story also impressed me a lot. He said,“man is not made for defeat, a man can be destroyed, but not defeatded.’’ Perhaps we wish that everything can go well in our daily lives, but as we know, it is only a wish. We are sure to meet some trouble in our whole lives, so we must be brave. We can never give up. No matter how old we are, no matter how unlucky we are, no matter how hard the problems are, we are expected to solve those problems bravely, and never say:“no”.
Of course, now we are college students, we may have not met any problems that were really difficult to solve. But if we enter the society after a few years, we have to face some trouble which will make you lose your head. Then will you give up? Santiago taught us never give up, man is not made for defeat. Be steel in your future lives, and I really hope that we can lead happy lives in the future.
