"Grandma, why did you buy so many drinks?" My daughter looked at the drink crates piled up in the living room and couldn't help but ask.
I looked at her with a smug expression, picked up a can of beer, and drank it all down. Wiping the corners of my mouth, I said, "Oh, this can is really thirst-quenching! You don't have to worry so much, I bought it with my own money." It's too late for me to be happy!"
I've always been an unconventional player with my own unique understanding of life. Although I am 92 years old, I never see myself as an old man who needs to be cared for. In my opinion, living and learning is the right way. I don't feel old at all, I feel more energetic than when I was younger. I want to live a free life, and I don't want to be tied down by anyone or anything. Although my daughter is well-intentioned, it seems to me that she always makes a big fuss.
As I spoke, I pulled a cigarette out of my trouser pocket and lit the fire. I took a deep breath and slowly exhaled the smoke. Then he picked up another can of beer and drank it in a big gulp. Looking at the drink crates all over the floor, I grinned, revealing a mouthful of mutilated yellow teeth.
When my daughter saw this, she immediately began to count me down: "Grandma, aren't you afraid of sugar disease? If you smoke so much, you will get lung cancer? Why do you buy so much meat? Eating so much fat will block the heart and cerebrovascular vessels?"
I listened, but waved my hand disapplausively: "Ouch, you're just worrying too much." I've lived to this age, and I'm much better physically than you young people. I have my own measure, how can I poison myself to death?"
As I spoke, I put on another cigarette and began to puff out the clouds. I picked up a piece of stinky bacon and chewed it in a big gulp, gobbling it up. Fatty oil slurry ran down my chin and I didn't even notice it.
I've always been a freewheeling person. I never cared about other people's opinions and judgments, and only lived my own thoughts. I feel like I've lived most of my life, and I don't have much time left, so I have to enjoy it. I don't have any fear of death, but I feel that death is a part of life, and there is nothing to be afraid of. My only wish is to have enough fun in my lifetime and be my true self again. Although my daughter was well-intentioned to dissuade me, I just couldn't help but feel disgusted by her preaching. I'd rather trust my years of life experience than listen to her half-thought.
After eating the bacon, I picked up another can of cold Coke and poured it with my head up. My daughter looked at me gobbling up like this, and finally couldn't help but get angry.
"Grandma, aren't you afraid of getting sick?" She said angrily, "Come on, you're an old stubborn! I'm doing it for your own good, why don't you listen?"
Annoyed by her words, I jerked to my feet, my hands on my hips, and my eyes staring at her like a torch. "I'm old and stubborn? It's not my business that I don't listen to you? I've lived to this age, what don't I understand? You are young, but you have learned the tone of your elders!"
I've always been a stubborn person, and I've always turned a deaf ear to the dissuasion of others. I feel that my lifestyle is understandable, and my daughter is too worried. I'd rather trust my years of life experience than listen to her half-thought. Even though I knew she had good intentions, I just couldn't help but feel disgusted by her preaching. She was young and vigorous and lacked understanding of my lifestyle.
I ran my hands through my unkempt gray hair, and my face was full of displeasure. I walked briskly to the kitchen, opened the fridge, and pulled out a large plate of bacon and a can of beer. I shoved the bacon into my mouth, my eyes widened, and I took a big bite. The scrap of meat was stuck in the corner of my mouth, and I rubbed it rudely with the back of my hand.
"Grandma, don't you want to live to be 100 years old?" The daughter finally calmed down and changed her tone to a gentle tone.
I was stunned by her words, blinked a few times, and seemed to be seriously thinking about the question. "To live to be 100 years old? Of course I want to! But in order to live to be 100 years old, I don't even have the joy of life, so isn't it still in vain?"
The daughter sighed and said, "Grandma, sooner or later there will be problems if you live like this." I know you've always been spontaneous, but it's time for you to think about your body. Although you still look tough now, if something really goes wrong one day, it will be too late to regret it. "
I never thought about the question of living to be 100 years old. I always thought that I had lived enough in this life and could die at any time. I don't want to live a long life, I just want to have enough fun in my lifetime. But my daughter's words gave me some new ideas. If I really live to be 100 years old, should I cherish the rest of my time? I thought silently, my mind conjuring up what I was like when I was younger, how young and strong I was, and full of infinite hopes for the future.
I looked at my daughter's concerned eyes and had mixed feelings. She has a point, but I'm used to this way of life, and I can't change it for a while. Do I still have a chance to live a good life and appreciate the meaning of life? My feelings are more conflicted than ever.
I sat silently on the couch with all sorts of thoughts going through my head. After a long while, I spoke again, and my tone was more gentle than ever: "Actually, I wish I could live longer." But if I had to break my habit now, I really can't do it. "
I looked at my daughter with a sincere look in my eyes: "But I promise you, from today onwards, I will try to be as modest." Smoke less, drink less, and eat less meat. But you have to allow me to enjoy life in moderation, after all, no one can say when my old bones will break. "
My daughter was persuaded by my unprecedented sincerity and nodded, her eyes full of relief. I know it's a new beginning for both of us.
"That's it, Grandma. The daughter said happily, "I will check on you more in the future, you have to keep your promise!"
I smiled and nodded, patting the back of my daughter's hand: "Okay, I'll listen to you." When will my old bone break, I can't let you worry too much. "
"Grandma, don't say those sad things. My daughter looked at me with disgust.
I laughed, picked up a can of beer, and shook it at my daughter: "Don't worry, I'll change it slowly." But let me have a good time today, right?"
As I spoke, I threw my head back and took a big gulp. The daughter shook her head helplessly, but there was a doting look in her eyes.
I was free for a while, and suddenly I felt more tired than I had ever felt before. I covered my face with my hands and let out a long sigh. Seeing this, my daughter hurriedly stepped forward to support me and asked me if I was unwell. I waved my hand to signal that it was okay, but I was feeling a little tired. I slowly stood up and walked limply towards the bedroom. My daughter has been following me closely, for fear that I will fall to the ground if I am unstable.
I went to the bedroom, lay down on the bed, and covered myself with the quilt. My daughter sat on the edge of the bed, holding my hand, her eyes full of worry. I smiled and reassured her, "It's okay, I'm just a little tired and need a good rest." With that, I closed my eyes and seemed to fall asleep really quickly.
I had a dream in which I was back in my childhood. I became the innocent little girl again, wandering around the village all day carefree. I dreamed that I was chasing butterflies in the fields, fishing by the stream, and enjoying the shade under the trees. At that time, I was full of curiosity and yearning for the world, and I was also full of longing for the future. I dreamed that I sometimes wanted to be a female pilot, and sometimes I wanted to be a female scientist to explore uncharted territory.
My dreams shifted to adolescence again, and I began to think about the meaning of life and have a first understanding of death. I began to think about what kind of life I wanted to live, what kind of contribution I wanted to make, and what kind of ideals I wanted to pursue. My inner world began to become more colorful, and I also began to have more confusion and contradictions.
I don't know how long I slept, but I heard my daughter whispering to me beside me: "Grandma, grandma, wake up." "
I slowly opened my eyes and saw my daughter's concerned gaze. "What's wrong kid, how long have I been asleep?"
"You've slept for a day and a night, and I'm dying. "My daughter's eyes are a little red.
I smiled and shook my head, "Silly boy, my old bones won't break so quickly." "I sat up, looked around the room, and suddenly felt more awake than I had ever felt before.
I looked at my daughter and said earnestly, "Son, my mother had a long, long dream. In the dream, my mother returned to her childhood and re-experienced the various states of life. This made my mother suddenly realize that the meaning of life is not only the pursuit of physical pleasures, but also the pursuit of a higher level. "
I paused and continued, "Mom is 92 years old, and she is actually very content to live until now. But what you said made me realize that if I really have a chance to live longer, I should cherish the rest of my time and live a meaningful life. "
I looked at my daughter with a firm look in my eyes: "So from now on, my mother decided to get rid of those bad habits." Although it may be a bit of a struggle, as long as you can live longer and more meaningfully, it will be worth it. "
My daughter was deeply moved by my words, and her eyes were full of tears. She stepped forward and hugged me tightly, crying silently and said, "Grandma, what you said is so good. As long as you have this determination, your daughter will definitely support you with all her might!"
I patted my daughter on the back and comforted her: "Silly boy, don't cry." Mom, my old bones won't break so quickly. "
The daughter looked up, wiped her tears with her sleeve, and tried to smile. I looked at her and suddenly felt a lot of emotion.
"You know what, kid, my mother has been determined to be a female pilot since she was a child and explore the wider sky. My eyes darkened, "Unfortunately, for various reasons, this dream was not realized in the end." But it doesn't matter, there are more possibilities in life, and we always have the opportunity to pursue our ideals. "
The daughter nodded and said seriously: "Grandma, as long as you have a dream, your daughter will fully support you! Even if you want to be a female pilot, we will definitely be able to find a way!"
I was amused by my daughter's words and laughed. Looking at her serious expression, my heart was suddenly filled with an unprecedented strength. Yes, the meaning of life is not only to eat, drink and have fun, but also to pursue one's dreams and ideals. As long as there is a chance, we should work tirelessly for it!
I was deeply encouraged by my daughter's words. Even though I was 92 years old, I suddenly felt as if I had regained my vitality and hope. I began to think back to the ideals and dreams of my youth, and those things that I had forgotten for a long time were now burning again in my heart. I realized that life is not destined to be spent like this, as long as we have dreams and pursuits, we will definitely be able to add more color and meaning to life.
It was as if my inner world had been completely ignited, and I was burning with enthusiasm that I had never experienced before. I began to reflect on how ridiculous and uninteresting my past lifestyle was. It turns out that the true meaning of life does not lie in the pursuit of physical pleasures, but in the pursuit of spiritual sublimation and self-transcendence.
I rolled over and got out of bed, feeling empowered all over me. I straightened up and walked to the living room with my head held high. Seeing this, my daughter hurriedly followed, surprised by my sudden refreshment.
I looked around the living room and saw that there were still beer cans and scraps of meat from yesterday scattered on the floor, and I was disgusted. I bent down, picked up the cans one by one, and threw them in the trash. My daughter was even more confused when she looked at me.
Then I went back to my bedroom, opened the closet, and threw out all the cigarettes and alcohol inside. I picked up the cigarettes and slammed them into the floor with a loud bang. My daughter was taken aback by my actions and asked me what was wrong.
I turned around and looked at my daughter with bright eyes: "Child, Mom has already made up her mind. From now on, my mother will completely get rid of those bad habits and live a new life!"
My daughter was so shocked by my eyes that she nodded speechlessly.
I stepped forward and hugged my daughter tightly, and my tone was extremely firm: "Child, you are right, mom still has a long way to go. From a young age, my mother aspired to be a female pilot and explore the wider sky. Although I couldn't realize this dream back then, my mother is determined to work hard for it! Even if she is 92 years old, her mother must realize this dream!"
My daughter was deeply moved by my words and burst into tears. She nodded vigorously and said firmly, "Okay! My daughter will fully support you, as long as you have this determination, we will definitely find a way!"
I hugged my daughter tightly, and my heart was extremely firm. Yes, even if I am 92 years old, as long as I still have a breath left, I must work hard for my ideals. I realized that the biggest regret in life was not pursuing my dreams. I don't want to waste the rest of my life like this, I want to add more meaning and color to my life.
I think of what I was like when I was younger, how energetic I was and how I had a bright vision for the future. I aspire to be a great female pilot, to fly through the clouds and experience the wider sky. Unfortunately, due to various reasons, this dream was not realized. But now, I have the courage and determination to rekindle my dreams. I realized that the value of life is not in the age of age, but in whether you have a dream and work tirelessly to fight for it.
I let go of my daughter, my eyes firm and persistent. I strode to the living room and swept all the remaining jugs and scraps of meat from the floor into the trash. I went back to my bedroom and cleaned up all the cigarettes and alcohol thoroughly. Then I opened the closet and rummaged through it to find a brand new tracksuit. I took off my old clothes and quickly changed into a new sports attire.
When her daughter saw this, she was both surprised and delighted. She stepped forward and put her arm around me, her tone full of encouragement: "Grandma, my daughter knows that you can do it! As long as you have this determination, we will definitely find a way to realize our dreams." "
I nodded firmly, and my tone was extremely resolute: "Okay, then let's act immediately! We have to make a detailed plan to realize my ideals step by step." "
I was deeply encouraged by my daughter's words, and my blood boiled. I held her hand tightly, and my eyes were resolute: "Okay, it's decided! Daughter, let's start again today and pursue our ideals!"
My daughter nodded vigorously, and the eyes of the two of us met in the air, and a determined fire burned in each other's eyes. I know that as long as we have this indomitable determination, we will be able to overcome all difficulties and finally realize our dreams!
