After retirement, life seems to have entered a new chapter. The years have passed, and we have struggled and struggled in the workplace, busy for our dreams, for our families, and for our lives. Now, when all this is a thing of the past, we have more time to enjoy, to experience, to feel.
Whenever the morning sun shines through the curtains on the head of the bed, I gently stretch to welcome the beautiful day. Then, I would slowly get up, prepare a simple breakfast for myself, savor the deliciousness of the food, and feel the beauty of life.
When I really don't have anything to do, I buy a train ticket and get on the train that goes to a distant place. Sitting by the car window, I quietly admired the scenery outside the window. What was once a familiar scene is now so strange and new. I watched the swaying rice in the fields, the undulating mountains and the mist, and felt the magic and beauty of nature.
When the train arrives at the terminal, I find a comfortable hotel to stay in. Here, I can let go of all my tiredness and worries and enjoy a peaceful time. I go to taste the local snacks and the unique flavors and recipes make me want to linger. I would go to the local market and feel the culture and atmosphere here. I will visit some places of interest to learn about the history and culture here.
Or, I'll take the bus or subway to get out and go to all corners of the city. I will go to those places that I once knew and reminisce about the past; I also go to places I've never been to before, exploring uncharted territory. I would walk around each park and enjoy the different scenery and scenery of the four seasons. I would find a quiet corner in the park and sit down, watching the busy figures and laughter of people, and feeling the hustle and bustle of life.
Eating outside and tasting different foods and flavors makes me feel more comfortable. I would find a unique restaurant and sit down, order a few dishes I liked, and slowly savor the deliciousness and texture of the food. This feeling of relaxation and enjoyment made me forget the limitations of age and identity, as if I had returned to my youth.
Get out there and the world is yours. In this wide world, we can go anywhere we want and do whatever we want. We can appreciate the magnificence and beauty of nature, and experience different cultures and customs; We can also challenge our limits and abilities to try new things and fields. The world is full of endless possibilities and opportunities, as long as we are willing to discover and explore.
At home, however, home is our world. This small space holds all our memories and emotions. Here, we can enjoy the warmth and companionship of family affection; You can also quietly think about life and the future. We can relax by reading a book, listening to a piece of music, or watching a movie; You can also chat with your family, cook or clean your room to bond with each other.
Give yourself an excuse to go out every day! Whether it's a trip to a far-flung country or a wandering around the city; Whether it's going for a walk in the park or going to a restaurant for a good meal. Just let yourself move, get out of the house and feel the wonder and beauty of this world.
