Ever since the accelerated development of human civilization,perpetual
scientific discoveries of nature had accompanied mankind all along the journey.
It was by discovering the world around us that human beings have been able to
lead a more sophisticated life.However,as G.K.Chesterton once said,“One may
understand the cosmos,but
never the ego; the self is more distant
than any star.” Similarly,our life is a journey of unrelenting efforts to
discover more of ourselves.
When I was 6 I constantly pictured myself as an elegant and skilled pianist
rendering Chopin’s nocturne beautifully on the stage,receiving warm applause
after my performance.As I furthered my piano lessons,it was hard to be
oblivious of my non-gifted skills.Sometimes I couldn’t help but have this
feeling of despair when I woke up to the reality and discovered that my goal was
unrealistic.Brutal but real,it was the first time I had discovered that I
couldn’t have it all.
When I was 12 I thought the coolest job in the entire universe was to be a
surgeon.I spent hours and hours watching the drama “Grey’s Anatomy”,and
couldn’t help falling in love with the kind of life those doctors lead on the
screen.I was utterly mesmerized by the scalpel and all those fancy medical
terms they use.However,I stopped dreaming about being a surgeon when I
discovered that it was the idea of being a surgeon that appealed to me,not what
it truly was.Therefore,the dream ended and I discovered some more about
myself.
This year I turned 16,I could proudly say I do not dream to be but ascertain
to pursue being a lawyer in the future.Since junior high school I was always
awarded the “most eloquent
debater” in every single debate I participated in.I cannot only think logically
but also deliver my thoughts promptly.My huge interest in philosophy also adds
to my reasoning whenever I tried to argue on something equivocal.Being aware of
the obstacles and hardships on the way to becoming a great lawyer never panics
me,for the simple reason that I have this faith and passion in what I am
aspiring after.
G.K.Chesterton was absolutely correct,the most complicated part of
comprehending the world is the study of the somehow smaller world—ourselves.I
subsequently realized that growing up is the process of discovering ourselves;
we get to know what we truly are,and become who we dream to be.As we shape
ourselves,and as we shape our lives,we gradually become more aware of our
limits and potentials and consequently learn to adjust to what’s out there.And
by that,ladies and gentleman,I’m proud to say that I’ve discovered part of
myself,still discovering today standing on this stage,and hopefully a lot more
in the future.I will always keep this embedded into my heart that things do not change,we do.
