Often take the 817 long-distance bus in the International Trade Center between Beijing and Langfang, Hebei Province, especially during the rush hour, in order to get on the earlier train, and can sit on a more comfortable seat, although this train is more than ten minutes to send one, but there is always a long queue at the departure site below Beijing TV, after all, the road is indeed a little far away, and it is always good to get home early.
After a long time, I found a very special phenomenon: sometimes you are on the bus very early, but there will always be a later train on the way to overtake, at this time, you will be frustrated to see that the person who got on the bus behind arrived at the destination at the same time as you, or even arrived early.
If you think about it, you will understand that the inter-provincial bus has such a long journey, and there are dozens of stops on the way, coupled with complex and changeable traffic conditions, it is really impossible to say which one will arrive first.
I think of one thing when I was a child, we are immigrants from the Yellow River to a new village now, there are many old villages in the Yellow River where the relatives and friends of the parents' generation have made friends, and there are many old villages along the Yellow River, and when it comes to the New Year's holiday, they have to go there to go to relatives, in that era, the traffic is not so convenient as it is now, although the road is not too far, there are dozens of kilometers, but they are all bicycles, therefore, it is often a large group of people in the same village who ride bicycles together, and when they arrive at the place, they go to their relatives, after lunch, and then make an appointment with each other to meet at a certain intersection, and several people ride back to the new village while chatting。
During the Spring Festival that year, my father had something to do, so I asked me to ride with others to go to the old village to visit relatives, and on the way back, there was a big car in the village that was also a family car, which was the kind of car that ran transportation, and generally put the bicycle in the back of the car, and many people had to sit in the back.
After a long delay at a relative's house, when I came out, because I had to go to other villages to pick up people, the car had already left, I rode a bicycle to my home alone, and when I was riding all over the body and was comfortable, I heard the horn of the car behind me, the car was full of cars and people driving behind me, the driver waved to me to stop on the side of the road, I waved his hand to let him go, saving me to have to carry the bicycle up, and the car was not comfortable sitting in the back of the cold.
I rode all the way home, drank water and was about to go to a friend's house for a while, and when I walked out of the door, I saw a few people in the same alley who had just gotten off the car and pushed their bicycles home, and when they saw me, they were just as strange as me: why did I arrive before them?
Come to think of it, it should be that they pick up people in all directions, and the conditions of some roads in those days were not suitable for driving big cars.
It seems that sometimes some so-called innate advantages can also become a fetters on our way forward.
In recent years, ** or training institutions are rendering to win at the starting line, so that many parents ignore their children's preferences and do their best to arrange various training courses, and the meaningless "involution" has become the mainstream. There are also various talent shows, those "genius children" who seem to be obviously packaged, this kind of seedling-fueled education makes people feel a little utilitarian.
Look at how many of the former genius teenagers in the past few years have entered the society after entering the society as adults, and even sinking into the world, compared with them, we still hope to see more of the kind of talents who accumulate over time, win step by step, and even become late bloomers.
