You Should Be Like a Bird Flying to Your Mountain

The author, Ms. Tara, tells such a ridiculous and touching story in a plain, natural and calm tone. It is hard to imagine that this is her real experience. Her words have infinite power, making people can't help but empathize with and experience all the despair she has experienced. The contradictions between society and family, science and religion, and the complex and ugly human nature were bloodyly revealed by her and bravely exposed to the world. The moment she put pen to paper, the darkest and moistest corner of her heart saw the sunshine, and her soul broke free from the shackles, flew out of the prison, and flew to the mountain of her own.

This book made me see the necessity of education. The heroine is really strong at her core and she is my goddess.

I read it on and off for a month, changed several platforms, and finally finished reading this book. This book made me understand the role of education. It was through education that Tara got rid of the isolation of her original family, built her own ideological system, and finally became the person she wanted to be. The story is quite inspiring. It made me, a teacher major, understand the importance of receiving education, and at the same time, it made me think about how to influence students through education.

Growth is education. Changes and improvements in the depth of cognitive and thinking dimensions explain the complexity of people. Although thousands of people have thousands of faces, I prefer to say that one person has thousands of faces. What they show is a personality that is not controlled by the brain, subconscious, conditioned reflex, or carefully designed after repeated thinking and hesitation, or hypocritical or sincere...

How can I put it this way? There were ups and downs of emotions during the reading process, and I also felt conflicted about the multi-faceted nature of each character. The protagonist's experience sometimes made me sad, sometimes angry, sometimes amazed, and complicated. I haven't finished reading it yet, but it has already given me a lot to think about. It's very good.

This book allowed me to see the tenacity and courage of a girl who opened the door to a new world through education in such a difficult environment. Tara's story is admirable, and her classic quote "Education makes you fly like a bird to your mountain" also touched me deeply. This book tells us that no matter where we come from, we all have the right to pursue a better future.

This is an autobiographical novel by the author. It is hard to believe that under such harsh conditions, the author was able to break out of the siege and finally obtain a PhD in history from Cambridge through self-study. It is simply a miracle. Although the author does not dwell much on her learning process, one can imagine the hundredfold effort and perseverance she put into it. After reading this book, I have deep feelings about three aspects. 1. The original family has a huge influence on the child, and it has an inseparable relationship with the child throughout his life. We cannot choose the family of origin into which we are born, but we can choose our attitude towards it. If our family of origin has a negative impact on us, blindly avoiding the problem, burying secrets in our hearts, not trusting others and not communicating with others will only expand the problem infinitely and make the thorn pierce deeper and deeper. The only thing we can do is to try our best to change our attitude, learn to accept it, learn to reconcile with the family of origin, and learn to reconcile with ourselves. Only in this way can the negative part be reduced to a minimum. 2. The sentence "education changes destiny" is really best interpreted by the author. When she was confused and confused, she chose to study, use knowledge to broaden her horizons and improve her cognition, thereby breaking through the limitations and constraints of her original family, becoming a bird and flying to her own mountain. The power of knowledge may not necessarily bring you good luck immediately, but it can help you understand yourself better and clarify the direction of your life. 3. Life is a long journey, and we need the power of role models to inspire us to move forward. Under the influence of her brother Taylor, Tara gradually became interested in learning, and decided to study on her own to go to college. During the many crises with the family, Taylor always fully supported his sister and gave her spiritual comfort. Without Taylor's help and support, there would be no Tara who would transform later. The brother made the sister successful, which is why the author said on the home page that this book is dedicated to his brother Taylor.

"You can love someone very much and still choose to say goodbye to them; you can miss someone all the time but still be glad that they will no longer appear in your life." My family was neither good nor bad when I was young. My father would beat me and scold me because I was in a bad mood. Because I was scolded for my beauty, I showed it to no one, but I still cared about me occasionally. I can't bear to hate them, but I can't love them either. I can't bear to leave, but I'll go crazy when we're together.

The protagonist Tara is very inspiring. She lives out her life in such a depressing environment, breaks out of the prison of fate, and searches for the true meaning of life. It is the object of my study.

I think this is a miraculous story. A girl who never went to school before college finally became a doctor in Cambridge. Her father is a fanatical and loyal believer, which has reached an extreme level; her mother is very cowardly and follows her father most of the time; and she also has a violent and dangerous brother. These once trapped her and made her give up. There were too many things that hindered her, but the biggest obstacle was herself. She cannot be broken or established. She has always been gold, but in the scrap factory she is no different from scrap metal. Only when she goes out and is seen can gold shine brightly. "The opportunities are slim, but I am a queen who is good at seizing opportunities." She said that this was the transformation that education brought to her, but it was herself who created the miracle.

Even if your family of origin has brought you a lot of painful memories, we still have to believe that there are many people in the world who can bring you warmth and love. This is the first time I read a book of this type. Thank you to the author for his willingness to tear open the scars in his heart and show them to more people. I can feel the author's strong psychology and it also gave me a lot of encouragement.

This book reminded me of two terms, one is another book "To Kill a Mockingbird", which is similar to this book. It also describes education and growth, but the robin is softer and the scrapyard is more violent; the other term is "Chinese education". To be honest, I did not expect that this term would be like a ghost, running through my mind when I read these words, the same betrayal of authority, the same constant struggle...

The high mountains make it small and the mountain wind makes it silent

The things that language can express are very shallow, and many complex things cannot be expressed verbally. People do not need to discover themselves and understand themselves. But for some souls, the inner voice is like a beast in a cage. Although it can be forcibly imprisoned, it will one day break out of the cage. Most of Taka's story is concise and concise, but the real process is actually much more complicated and painful. Educating Tara was a force that made her change. When her strength is insufficient, she needs to escape. When one day her strength is enough, she will be able to face it peacefully. This is a very good book on the psychological process of self-discovery and self-understanding, which is helpful for people to understand themselves.

I felt it was a bit confusing when I first read it, and I didn't quite understand what it was talking about [laughs]. But I am very clear that the heroine has a super male father (paranoid), and a mother and brother who are PUA. This kind of family is really too dark [crazy] [crazy] [crazy]. My brother Tyler made the right choice to cut ties with this family, and it makes me feel so happy [shy][shy]. But the heroine herself may have been PUA for a long time, and she did not leave the family decisively [punch out] [punch out] like her brother Taylor did. Fortunately, the heroine gradually came out of the shadow in her heart and successfully rescued herself from the fire and water [blowing kiss][blowing kiss]. I particularly like what the professor in the book said, "The most powerful factor that determines who you are comes from your heart." I would like to give a sentence to all women that I like very much - "If a woman is independent, the world will be wider." [Love] [Love] [Love]

This is a memoir with excellent writing and translation. I guess it was written when the author was relatively young. The vividness and hope between the lines cannot fool anyone. Tara's strength, intelligence and bravery really impressed me. However, the author's words at the end specifically emphasized not to associate Mormonism with the characters in the book. I really couldn't stand it, and it was considered a step ahead of schedule [face covering] Especially when I thought that many people came to read this book to study Mormonism, I wanted to laugh. The slight sadness and depression after reading the story dissipated.

A very nice book, what can I say? It was the father's illness that ruined the children's lives. At least Tara was able to successfully realize her ideal in the end. Therefore, I just want to say that people who have not learned correct thoughts and responsibilities are not suitable to be parents. Sometimes not having children is a kind of kindness. After all, people are independent individuals with their own thoughts and cannot be completely dependent on their parents or completely controlled by their parents.

She redeemed herself and flew out of the mountain. Reading to the end, I felt full of hope for such a tenacious soul. If we cannot be born into a happy family, may we have the ability to walk out of that door and fly to our mountains.

This book really touches the heart directly. The family full of violence and paranoia is suffocating, and the author's mental split is distressing. In the end, the author can let go of it, which is very gratifying. What impressed me most were the passages in the last chapter. "They are choices made by a reformed person, a new self. You can call this self many things: transformation, metamorphosis, hypocrisy, betrayal. And I call it: education. "

This work shocked me beyond words. Some passages in it were so sad and helpless that it was suffocating. I closed and opened it several times. I am glad that I persisted to watch it until the end and witnessed the meaning of education. Tara's life also reflects the fragments of life of many girls struggling to survive in native families full of paranoia and violence. If you are trapped in the powerless reality and don't know how to save yourself, please open this book. It will tell you that no matter how your past is filled with blood and tears, it has become dusty history. Don't give up struggling, you will definitely escape from the prison in your heart, grow wings, and fly to the mountain that belongs to you.

After reading to the end and recalling the beginning of the memoir, I don't think I will read this book a second time. The road to redemption is too painful. I hope we can eventually climb the mountain in our hearts.

Tara finally woke up! This book explains why famous books become famous books!

When I was a child, I waited for my thoughts to mature, for experience to accumulate, for me to make firm decisions, and for me to become an adult. That person, or that incarnation, once belonged to something. I belong to that mountain, that mountain shaped me. But as I grew older, I began to think about whether my starting point is my end—whether a person's initial shape is his only true appearance. The only one who can save me is myself. Free yourself from mental slavery Only we ourselves can liberate our minds "The most powerful factor in who you are comes from within." As the play unfolded, I somehow could no longer look through the mirror and release my sixteen-year-old self in my place. She had been there until that moment. No matter how much I looked changed—how glorious my education was, how much my appearance changed—I was still her. At best, I am just two people divided inside. She was inside, appearing every time I crossed the threshold of my father's house. I called her that night and she didn't respond. She left me and was sealed in the mirror. After that moment, the decisions I made were no longer decisions she would make. They are choices made by a reformed person, a new self.

After reading it, I followed the author's perspective into her world, witnessed the diversity of human beings, and was deeply moved by it. I grew up in such a native family. Although not as outrageous as hers, I also look forward to flying to my mountain one day.

I found it very interesting. It was really gratifying to watch Tara walk out of her original family step by step and get rid of the pain. After reading this book, I felt deeply. I will also work hard to get rid of the troubles of my original family and become a stronger myself [laughs]

This book made me emotional, even angry. There are thousands of such families. In the book, it is because of religion, but in reality it is because of ignorance. Thinking about the many cases in the past where superstition was used to treat children's illnesses and eventually killed people, the author finally came to a conclusion about the importance of education in guiding thoughts. It is not our disease that chooses us, but we choose the disease. It seems that a choice that brings a sense of security to the soul will make us happy, and we will spare no effort to retain this abnormal sense of security and commit a series of anti-human behaviors. Tara's brother Sean, a man with severe bipolar disorder, makes everyone sick in order to prove that he is not sick, except of course his father, who also suffers from this severe mental illness. This book also made me understand that memories can be tampered with, some from others and some from oneself. Therefore, when something painful happens to us, we should say it out loud instead of keeping it in our memory. When we say it one day, the person involved will deny it by saying "I can't remember, I didn't do it, you are lying." Then you become a person who has been hurt and falsely accused others. Their family's story is not over, but she won. She allowed everything to happen, allowed her family's choices, and allowed herself to change. That's good.

Find out what your abilities are first, and then decide who you are. The past is not important, only the future is important.

Ultimately I believe that education must be seen as a continual reconstruction of experience; that the process and goal of education are one and the same. The past is always good because one is never aware of the emotion at the time; it expands later so that we only have full emotion for the past, not the present.

After getting out of the physical mountain of Buck's Peak, I was trapped by the two mountains of my father and Sean. The former is a beautiful mountain and will not hinder your progress, while the latter feels free but often in shackles. When I received education and came into contact with more knowledge, it overturned the educational concept from my family. When I tried to correct it, the world of family education and the world I wanted to create were separating me. That initial intransigence allowed me to go to school, get an education, and make me independent. Regardless of feeling disconnected, I have reinvented myself.

You should be like a bird flying to your mountain. This book gave me the feeling of pain and torture. I felt sorry for Tara's experience, but lamented his tenacity and unyieldingness. Many times we are stubborn about getting the love of others and proving ourselves, so we are unable to escape from these difficulties and lock ourselves firmly here. Tara was like that at first, but then I saw his transformation. He gained a new life through his own efforts and the nourishment of education. If a person wants to become an independent person, he must give up something. Useless emotions or fame in the worldly sense, Tara bravely admitted that her parents actually didn't have much affection for her. He bravely admitted that he had never attended school before college. He faces the eyes of others and accepts them calmly. He may have fears, but none of them are as important as herself. Tara's father, she said, suffered from bipolar disorder. His father was a true believer in God. But in my opinion, her father is using the hand of God to implement his own ideas and control others in the name of God.
