I heard an old man share his experience, and I was very touched. He told me that he has been retired for five years and travels three or four times a year to explore different places. Recently, however, he has lost interest in tourism. He felt that raising flowers, watching TV, writing, meditating, and living a calm and calm life at home made him feel more satisfied than traveling.
He had planned to go to the south to experience the local Chinese New Year customs during the Spring Festival this year, but in the end he did not act. His son curiously asked him why he had changed his mind. The old man put down the pen in his hand and told his son that he used to think that traveling was an easy and happy thing, but now he felt that it was not so much a gain as a loss of more.
First of all, he lost a large amount of his pension. The annual travel cost costs most of the year's pension, which makes his life in his old age insecure. Secondly, the long journey took a toll on his body. Although he could see the beautiful scenery, the long journey and the fatigue of the boat and car made his old waist and legs unbearable. When he arrived at the scenic spot, he didn't have time to rest, and he had to drag his tired body around, which made him feel very tired and couldn't enjoy happiness.
After several years of traveling, he understood that when he was old, he had to live a comfortable life, and there was no need to pursue the so-called stimulation of the outside world. His son also seems to understand his thoughts and is willing to spend more time with him to make him feel satisfied. He believes that inner peace and the company of his family are the most important things, and no matter how wonderful the outside world is, it cannot compare to the warmth of the brilliant lights at home.
