I accidentally saw the video and introduction below, which introduces a week in the life of a sunny, confident, and energetic girl. Combined with the recent news about the suicide of middle school students nearby, I can't help but think of a question: How should life be educated in the current environment?
Society, parents, and schools work together to guide students to value life and find the meaning of their lives.
“As the Austrian psychologist Viktor Frankl once said, I would venture to say that there is nothing in the world that can help a man to survive in the worst possible situation unless he realizes that his life has meaning.”
The following is from:

Kayla Mak, a 16-year-old senior in high school, is a well-known Asian ballet dancer. The video records her schedule one week before participating in the World Dance Championships. We can intuitively feel what kind of hard work it takes to be a professional ballerina behind the scenes.
As a high school senior, Kayla balances dance and studies very well. Even in the subject "Psychology", which she considered to be the most difficult, she was able to achieve a good score of 92 points. Kayla dances 6 days a week, takes 5 hours of ballet classes every day, and takes 1 hour to rehearse her work alone. At the same time, she also has to complete school courses and homework.
Even seemingly impossible tasks can be arranged clearly by Kayla using trivial time. She often uses her time between classes to do split stretches and do homework on the train. Of course, it seems easy but it is actually very hard. Kayla often doesn't get home until 11 o'clock in the evening for dinner, and sometimes she is still doing homework in the middle of the night. Practicing dance every day until Achilles tendon injuries and muscle soreness are commonplace...
In addition, Kayla also demonstrated many "unique skills" of ballet dancers - sewing elastic bands and ribbons on ballet shoes, "makeup" on ballet shoes, carrying rosin or buck glue to prevent the floor from slipping...
At 11:38 in the video, you can see Kayla’s World Dance Championship entry.
After watching the video, I have to sigh that Kayla works really hard, which proves the saying "one minute on stage, ten years of hard work off stage". But despite the hard work, she still wore a confident and cheerful smile, showing her charming dimples. I hope this beautiful ballet actress will shine in the future.
