A few days ago, I was chatting with an old colleague, and she said that she had been retired for three months, and she felt that life was not as good as she expected.
It's so boring at home every day, my wife goes to work and walks for a day, she doesn't bother to go downstairs at home, and chases the account to become a VIP.
She said that there is nothing good about retirement, it is better to go to work, at least I feel that I am not so old when I go to work.
After retiring, others asked her if she didn't go to work, and she said that she was retired, so people let children call her "grandma".
She said that once she retires, she will become a square dance aunt in the eyes of others, or she will be a retired old man.
I couldn't help but laugh and tell her that I saw how the retired sisters in the writing camp lived their lives into poetry and distant places!
Retirement is just an age limit, and it does not limit our self-growth and improvement.
The unrepentant teacher in the writing camp, after retirement, not only became a writing teacher, but also made his own account, and recently published a book.
There are also people who retire, one person and one car, all over the world as their home, all the way to the south, chasing their dreams;
Some people deeply cultivate their own interests and hobbies, walk hand in hand with a group of friends, and live happily and contently on the way to old age.
Mr. Yang Jiang once said: "Age should be a medal of life, not a sentimental reason."
There is a station in life and a station of scenery, a year old has a taste of a year old,
No matter how others treat you, you must cherish yourself and be worthy of the pride in your heart.
Be alone in your own world and go with the flow in someone else's world. ”
If the heart is young, the years will not be old!
Grandma Moses picked up a paintbrush at the age of 76 and opened a solo exhibition at the age of 80; Wang Deshun, the most handsome uncle in the Northeast, walked the catwalk at the age of 79;
Age is in them, just a number.
We are only in our 50s, which is the most beautiful time, don't always use age to set limits on your life.
To live so that others can't see their age, that's a realm!
Retirement is normal, it is a natural law to be old, and walking on the road to old age is not a dead end, we can still be fragrant all the way.
As long as the heart is not old, it is still full of vitality!
Life is like the four seasons, and when you retire, it is the season of harvest in life, enjoy life, and have your own unique charm.
After more than three years of retirement, I insisted on being a simple and happy retired woman, and I used the following three methods.
1. Enjoy being alone, be alone with loneliness, and be your own unique self in your own time.
I like a passage in "Written on the Edge of Life":
"Taking a bath, looking at a flower, eating a meal, if you feel happy, it is not all because the bath is clean, the flowers bloom well, or the food is to your taste, but mainly because you have no obstacles in your heart. ”
Happiness does not come from enjoyment, but from the fact that we have no obstacles in our hearts, let go of all our worries, and enjoy the present day in time.
After retirement, I like to be alone, enjoy solitude, be alone with it, and dare to be myself in my own time, rather than following the crowd and going with the flow.
I boxed alone, walked alone, drank tea alone, and even went to live in other places, I went alone for three months.
Some people say I'm not social, some people say I'm high.
In fact, after retirement, the leaves fall here, flowers bloom elsewhere, and the best rest of your life is not to be full of flowers, but to be yourself quietly.
Enjoy the quiet time in your hobbies, and live the life you want on the days you like.
Get along with your wife, communicate with your daughter, be a happy woman who treats herself well and cheers for others.
In the first half of his life, he ignored the beauty of the world for various reasons, did not have time to be serious and young, and forgot the beauty that belonged to him;
Therefore, when we retire, we must slow down, follow our heart's wishes, and enjoy our own share of happiness.
2. Walk with people who share the same hobbies to make retirement happy and meaningful.
After retiring, he participated in the self-media writing camp and walked with a group of young mothers.
Spending time with young people and listening to them gossip in the group makes me feel much younger.
When I encounter writing problems and account problems, the mothers will patiently explain to me, which feels very good.
There are also retired aunts in the writing camp, like me, who encourage each other, praise each other, and cheer each other.
I enjoy the community, and the joy of being with people who share the same interests speaks for itself.
The encouragement and support of my friends opened the core of my brain and cleansed my heart.
This is a collective full of positive energy, accompanying each other, promoting each other, nourishing each other, and witnessing each other.
Life is wonderful because of companionship, days are abundant because of fun, and years bloom because of friendship.
Retired for more than three years, I insist on doing what I like every day, getting up in the morning to read and write, and going downstairs to boxing when the sun comes out.
When accompanying my wife, I insist on cooking a few small dishes for him every day, and accompany him for a few drinks on weekends.
Life is a long road, walk with comfortable people, accompany interesting people, don't panic when you're busy, drink tea and listen to music when you're free.
Hiking in the spring sun, enjoying the scenery in the winter snow, as long as there is a peach blossom source in your heart, where life is not between the water and clouds.
3. Have the eyes to discover a better life and be a happy and simple retired woman.
After people reach middle age, the relationship between husband and wife is less affectionate and sweet, and more family and kindness accumulated over the years.
Speaking of young couples and old companions, the wife around me is the beginning of my discovery of a beautiful life.
In the past, he always ignored his wife's goodness, always used a comparison mentality, and a critical eye, feeling that he was not good enough.
After retirement, time passes, time is affectionate, but I can calm down and appreciate the wife around me.
It turned out that it was not that life was not good enough, but that I myself lacked the eyes to find a good life.
When I stopped looking at my wife with a critical eye and asked for my daughter, I found that my wife became more and more cute, and my daughter became more and more talkative.
The above is my life in retirement for more than three years, happy and simple.
If these three methods work for you, that's my happiness.
In the bustling and complicated world, a simple and happy life is really good.
Don't compare, don't care, don't go with the flow, make peace with everything, live with solitude, and be a simple and happy retired woman.
Growing old hot, that's it, that's enough!
