Planting vegetables in front of the house, planting flowers behind the house

One of my girlfriends came back from the United States. Before she left China, she was a high-caliber student at Tsinghua University. After Harvard finished her Ph.D., we thought she would stay on Wall Street to be a senior gold collar. This was her dream before she left the country.

But she is back. What we can't think of is that she actually went to a beautiful place, bought a house in the lake, the house was built of wood, planted a lot of vegetables in front of the house, and planted a lot of flowers behind the house, she actually lived the life of the wild crane.

Many people are puzzled by her actions. She is only 30 years old. Moreover, it is really a bright future, but she actually gave up.

I asked her what to do every day. She said, go online, read a book, send the written things to someone's mailbox for silver, wear a cloth, eat their own vegetables, pruning those flowers and plants, and wake up in the afternoon to write. Like the novel. This is my favorite life, I think it is very fragrant.

More waste. I said, you read the doctor and returned from Harvard. It’s a pity that you are getting older.

No, she said, as long as you like a way of life, then how to choose the life you want is not a pity, can it be said that every day I walk through the reinforced concrete and the robot is as busy as it is full?

I used to live like that. Soon, my gastrointestinal dysfunction, I got chronic gastritis, cervical spondylosis, in order to keep my body, I ate less, my hair fell much, I used a lot of lead-containing cosmetics, breathing unclean air . When I was young, my dream was to have a wooden house, and then plant flowers after planting a house in front of the house. I could sit in that small room and write novels. This dream is the day I want most.

In the past, I always wanted to wait until I was 60 years old to live like that. However, I am afraid that I will be exhausted when I am less than 60 years old. I am afraid that I will not have this kind of state of mind when I am sixty years old. I am afraid. I have never dreamed of myself.

Since I can live this kind of life now, why should I wait until I am sixty?

I heard it. This is a beautiful thing, not everyone has this kind of state of mind.

I am no longer a pity for her. It is no longer because she is a female doctor at Harvard. It is incredible to plant flowers and flowers. When is the choice of what kind of life, it is a realm.

Just like the gathering of classmates a few days ago, the rich people said that they were too tired to do business with a smile, and they had to smile. If they had no money, they would be afraid of layoffs and layoffs. The small civil servants in the middle complained that the wages were too low. There is no chance to go abroad to go shopping, only to live a normal life. Everyone has all kinds of disappointments. No one noticed that spring is coming, until the children brought by a classmate said, "Dad daddy, you see, this little yellow flower is so beautiful, spring is coming."

The phrase "Spring is coming" stopped the irritated crowd, and everyone realized that we were too tired to live. In order to make money for the sake of money, we ignored the whole spring.

And my Harvard girlfriend understands that spring is in everyone's heart.

So, in this spring evening, I bought a few plum blossoms, put them on the bicycle, sang all the way to the unknown little bike ride home, when I went upstairs, I saw a neighbor holding a sugar-roasted chestnut, I donated He had a plum, he gave me a packet of sugar-fried chestnuts, everyone smiled and went home. This kind of life is really delicious. It is because, in my heart, I also planted a flower. That flower is called Zen.
