I’ve worked in （×the） society for five years and still achieve nothing. Every day I just go to work for 8 hours and then go home for the rest of time. Day after day, year after year, nothing changes, only I’m becoming older and older.

Looking around, nearly all my classmates and colleagues are becoming numb. They’re just living and working like a boat floating in the sea. Originally I had a colleague with great ambition. He and I just went to the UT library every day. He was a software engineer and swore spending all his life on software. His biggest dream was making contribution to Linux, a free and open-sourced operating system. It was really so hard for him because of the lack of related environment in China. For two years, he had studied diligently without stop. Three months ago, he just decided to abandon it and said he was too desperate and lonely to bear it anymore. Now he just worked 8 hours and rode a bicycle everywhere to enjoy the scenery of Shenzhen. I’ve seen people abandoning their dreams for so many times.

I just went to the UT library alone again. I found a corner to read my book and made notes. When all lights in the campus were turned on, the moon relived the sun on duty, I went out of the UT library alone. Seeing the happy couples on the meadow, seeing the happy family taking a walk, I could not helping sighing and having pity on myself. After all, I’m only a human instead of a terminator. I couldn’t do everything alone and even have an operation just like the terminator did after it was broken by the enemy.

I shouldn’t abandon my dream like other people because I have no route of retreat. No matter how, I have to walk toward （×to） my dream. Always admire the aura of success, but ignore the pain behind it. All my life is just pursuing the glorious moment. I don’t want that I won’t even have a moment for me to think when I am old. I can bear the pain, little do I think the journey of pursuing dream is so long.

Walk toward to your dream, though painful and slow, at least you’re getting closer and closer step by step. When I can’t bear the huge pain sometimes, I can bellow for a little while to relieve myself, then continue my long dream-pursuing journey.
