昨天中午和教练碰头,游完以后,他走过来跟我击掌,说我进步很大。
回到办公室,他发消息说,Great job today! your hard work, patience and persistence is paying off! Proud coach today! 心情觉得很振奋,一天天在泳池里来回的挣扎的我,终于看到了一线光明。
下班以后看到教练在我们三项俱乐部的网页上贴了这段话,上面是我的照片和昨天游泳的录像。
One thing I love about swimming is how much it accurately parallels life - one can only be successful at it through patience, practice, and persistence. A few months ago 落花 started to learn to swim with the very basics - how to hold her body in the water, while kicking and blowing bubbles. She has progressed beautifully and is staring to piece together a very proficient stroke. There is no quick fix!
那一瞬间,我觉得眼泪都涌到眼眶里。他虽然不苟言笑,但是我的努力他都明白。真的没有其他办法,只能在岸边默默看着我一个人努力。他能做的只有这么多,剩下的毅力和勤劳,只有我自己去付出。人生,何处不是如此。
