City life is stressful, and some people want to escape the hustle and bustle and return to the quiet life of the countryside. I can understand this idea, but I don't agree with it. Many people think that returning to the countryside can save money and live a self-sufficient life without worrying about food and clothing, but this is actually a misconception. I advise everyone to weigh the pros and cons before making a decision, and be cautious and cautious.
First, let's take a look at the basic expenses of rural living. Rice, flour, grain, oil, and other basic necessities of life have to be purchased. Even if you can farm and grow some of your own food, it's not realistic to be completely self-sufficient. After all, we still need meat, and meat just as much needs to be bought. In addition, we also need to buy clothes, whether in the countryside or in the city, which is unavoidable.
Secondly, life in the countryside is not completely unfettered, but there are more social expenses. Ceremonies and personal contacts are all important parts of rural life, and these activities not only need to be participated, but also need to spend a lot of money. Especially in rural areas, the cost of personal contacts tends to be greater than in cities, because you need to take care of more relatives and friends.
Moreover, returning to the countryside does not mean that you can completely get rid of the pressures of the city, but rather reduce your source of income. If you don't have a stable source of income in the countryside, then you may face even more financial pressure. Life in the countryside, while peaceful, also means a reduced source of income. You may lose jobs in the cities and relatively few jobs in the countryside. This way, your financial pressure may be even greater.
However, we cannot completely deny the merits of rural life. The air in the countryside is fresh, the environment is beautiful, and the pace of life is relatively slow. This provides a living environment where people are closer to nature. But these are not the main factors worth considering.
In closing, I would like to say that going back to the countryside was not an easy decision. It requires us to weigh the pros and cons, consider our own financial situation, living needs, and future development prospects. Although city life is stressful, it also provides us with more opportunities and conveniences. Whether it is education, health care or entertainment, cities are more developed than rural areas. If you really want to escape the stress of the city, then I suggest you choose a less stressful city instead of going back to the countryside. Of course, this is not to say that rural life is bad. Suffice it to say, we need to consider various factors more holistically before making a decision to ensure that we can adapt to our new living environment and find a stable source of income.
In general, I am not in favor of leaving the city and returning to the countryside. It's a misconception that living in the countryside doesn't mean spending more than living in the city. Back in the countryside, you may face greater financial pressure, while also losing the conveniences and opportunities in the city. Therefore, I advise everyone not to think about going back to the countryside lightly.
I don't know what everyone thinks about this?
