On the mainland, the countryside is known as a "paradise", where life is tranquil and natural, and people have a deep affection for the land and family. However, in recent years, more and more rural people have chosen to leave their homeland and move towards the city. Among them, there are both the temptation of opportunity and the choice of helplessness.
As an ordinary person who was born in the countryside and grew up in the city, I would like to talk about my thoughts on this topic.
I grew up in the countryside, where life was hard but full of joy. In the summer, we frolic by the river, catching fish and shrimp; In the fall, we help our family harvest the crops and taste the fruits of our labor. At that time, although life in the countryside was simple, people were content and happy, and the neighbors were like a family.
With the deepening of the mainland's reform and opening up, rural people have also begun to flock to the cities.
At that time, I still remember my neighbor's uncle saying goodbye to his hometown with a smile, he said: "I earn a lot of money in the city, so I go to work to make my family live a good life." Since then, he has embarked on a long journey and will never return. After the uncle left, the young adults in the village followed suit, and they bid farewell to their homeland with their yearning for a better life.
Why did these people leave the countryside?
1. Of course, the pressure of life.
Despite the tranquility of rural life, poverty is a lingering shadow. In rural areas, land is limited, and it is difficult to get out of poverty by farming. The rapid development of cities, opportunities and challenges, many people believe that only there can they find their own world.
2. Compared with urban resources, there is an obvious gap between rural resources.
In cities, people can enjoy better public services such as education and health care. In order to allow the next generation to have a better development, many rural parents send their children to the city to study at all costs. And once children take root in the city, their parents often choose to follow, thus forming a large floating population.
3. The values of rural people are also changing.
With the increasing convenience of information dissemination, rural people are no longer closed, and they have learned about the wonderful outside world through mobile phones and the Internet. At the same time, urban lifestyles and values are also penetrating, and many rural people are beginning to pursue a better quality of life, and they are eager to integrate into the city and become a part of it.
Despite the fact that more and more people are leaving the countryside, I don't think that the countryside has lost its attractiveness.
On the contrary, with the advancement of the construction of new rural areas on the mainland, earth-shaking changes are taking place in the appearance of rural areas. Infrastructure is constantly improving, public services are improving, and rural areas are becoming more livable. I believe that in the near future, more people will return to the countryside and build their hometowns.
In this process, we should also be aware of the problems that exist in rural areas.
For example, the hollowing out of rural areas is becoming more and more serious, and the loss of labor has limited agricultural development; Another example is the problem of environmental pollution in rural areas, with the migration of industry to the countryside, some polluting enterprises have extended their claws to the countryside, destroying the lucid waters and green mountains. We need to attach great importance to these problems and solve them in earnest.
As an ordinary citizen, I sincerely hope that the development of the rural areas on the mainland will get better and better. I believe that under the leadership of the party, we will be able to achieve rural revitalization and make the countryside a real "paradise". At that time, those who have left the countryside may find that this homeland is no longer what it used to be, but a new world full of hope and vitality.
In short, the departure of rural people from the countryside is a product of the development of the times and the freedom of personal choice. We should respect their decisions, and at the same time, we should pay attention to rural development. Only in this way can this land be revitalized again and become a home that people yearn for.
