Considerable effort is required to “meet expectations”。People around him praised his efforts.、If you are lucky enough to achieve results, you will have a bright life.。That's society's rules.、We have been taught these words before we even knew them.。People who don't live up to expectations are branded as bad people.、pushed to the bottom in society、In some cases, it is conveniently excluded。Not being able to meet expectations is a kind of fear。that's why、The intention of “not meeting expectations”、In a sense, it takes more mental strength than “meeting expectations”。
Paralympic medalists and others say things like, ``Anyone can make miracles happen if they don't give up,'' and ``Anyone can become who they want to be if they try.''、Not only people in similar situations、In the sense of giving hope to a wide range of young people、Has social “utility”。Their words must of course come from the heart.。But that statement、It is exalted as a ``moral effect'' that shows ``the importance of making efforts,'' separate from the real intention.、be used。They also mean what they say、I understand the effect。However, we must not forget that they are a kind of elite who were able to meet expectations.。far more people、I realize that we are not even blessed with an environment that allows us to make such efforts.、we know。The social perception that ``it is natural to make efforts'' is also a kind of pressure and coercion.。Those who find it psychologically painful、Isn't it a rather normal feeling?。
on the other hand、An artist is、These are people who have made it clear that they do not want to live up to expectations.。The very fact that art is expected to do something is contradictory.。In a broader sense, artists are also people who have chosen a lifestyle that can be said to be challenging to society.。Artists are not praised in their essential aspects.、When something happens, the first person to be oppressed by the political and social system is、Probably for that reason。Challenging does not mean "anti-social"。In fact, it's quite the opposite、There are many things that should be called "advanced"。Contrary to the economic society where companies are constantly seeking technological innovation and other changes.、Society at the daily level hates change itself.、It is often said that。People who are not good at computers、That's why we unconsciously tend to hate people who are good at it.。So stay warm、Becoming different from ourselves who can be satisfied in one place、Trying to stop this trend by labeling it as "anti-social"。When we old people frown and ask, “What about today’s young people?”、Maybe that kind of psychology is at work.、It is not wrong to think that。
Expectations are what is expected of someone。It's not a waste to think about who that "someone" is.。Artists don't want anyone to expect anything from them.。This is because there is a danger of accidentally trying to become someone other than yourself.。Effort can improve people, but、There is also the possibility of wearing yourself down needlessly.、It's a double-edged sword。To be honest、Efforts to meet the expectations of others are futile for everyone.、It is a sport that is firmly connected to the essence of current sports.。Being free to do what you like、I believe that it will liberate even those who are crushed under such pressure.。No one expects anything from me、Ignore the expectations、Do what you want to the best of your ability。I still don't have that "strong will"。
I don't mean it in a bad way。"Monster" in the sense of "too amazing"。I don't know much about the details、I learned that there are detailed rules for Paralympic sports depending on the degree of disability.。In team competitions, we mix different disabilities (although I don't think that's an appropriate word).、It seems that consideration is being given to not exclude people with disabilities (I don't think this is an appropriate term) from a single sport.。
But、Even more severely disabled、For example, a bedridden person cannot participate on a stretcher (probably).。It is probably not possible for people with internal disorders such as severe heart problems even if they are physically satisfied.。And it seems that there are many such people.。Being able to run from the perspective of such disabled people、Isn't being able to swim itself an amazing thing?。When you look at wheelchair tennis, track and field long jump, etc.、Even among able-bodied athletes, there aren't that many who can beat them. It's at such a high level that I thought。
Moreover, medalists are residents of a dream world.。For them, the silver and bronze medals are disappointing.。“Next time is definitely a gold medal.”。When you get to this point、To be honest, I can't relate。“Winning a gold medal will draw attention to parasports.、Players and many people involved say, ``It deepens understanding of all people with disabilities.''、And I can't say it's a lie though、It's not copper or silver、It doesn't explain why it has to be a "gold medal"。``I cannot implement my policies unless I am part of the ruling party.'' ``The only way to do that is to be ``elected'' as part of the ``ruling party.''''、Am I the only one who feels that this logic is strangely similar to that of people who campaign for election-oriented campaigns?。
Some people equate medals and awards.。I think it's completely different。The (gold) medal is “proof (of first place)”、In any case, an award has a strong meaning of encouragement, saying, ``Please do your best (you can develop further).''、I don't prove what rank it is.。At the Olympics and Paralympics、I think it would be better to use "award" instead of "medal."。If you do、What is the number of medals won by country?、There will be no more nonsense or even harmful reporting.。
