Every time I go home, there is always an inexplicable sense of intimacy. Even though I know that this is my home, the intimacy comes naturally. However, since I went to college, the time I have really spent in this hometown can really be said to be countless!
The longer you go, the longer you leave home, the more intimacy you feel inexplicable. Although the old home is still the old house of childhood, although the pattern around the house has not changed much, even if there is a little change, it is clear. However, despite the familiarity, this familiar place is still getting farther and farther away in my memory. Every time on a rare holiday, my hometown always gives me a sense of intimacy, it reminds me of my childhood, and the memories that have almost been forgotten are remembered again. Yes, the house is always full of memories, its space has never changed, but what happened in its years has been fixed on certain moments on the timeline. My joys and sorrows in the old house, the homework time of those reading years, and the fantasy time I hid in the old house and drowned in a person... They've always been there, and they've been in my memory.
And every time I come back, whether it's windy or rainy or sunny, I have to walk on the road in front of the door at night. The road in front of the gate has been with us since memory, and it has also undergone changes from the previous mud road to the later stone road and then to the current cement road. I like to walk on the country road, breathe in the fresh air of the countryside, feel the kind of tranquility that only in the countryside, on a good day, just like tonight, walking on this lighted and charming rural road, you can look at the stars above, watch them blink and blink, and then listen to the insects that are close at hand, listen to the night wind blowing around you, feel the cold in nature, look at the sky, and let your thoughts fly in the air.
Whenever I walk on the road and walk under the sky of this countryside, my heart will always be more delicate and sensitive. Delicate in all the sounds of nature, sensitive to the profound imagery in this heavenly space. When you put down the protective fence of thinking in urban work, let your thoughts relax, when you walk, you can well integrate yourself into this nature, and once your mind has removed the tense defenses at work, it has also begun to fly wildly, and it is heading towards a soul path that pursues the essence of life.
At this time, you no longer think that living is to work well and earn money to support your family, but you will temporarily put aside the pressure and think about some things above life. Are you thinking, what is the difference between yourself walking on the road at this moment and the insects and frogs around you? In fact, each of us is just playing a role in nature, we are just a process of life, but this process has a length, and the way we live is different!
What is the meaning of our living in this world? At this moment, walking on the country road, I feel that the meaning of living is that every life fulfills the responsibility of this role played by nature and lives according to the path of nature. Just like bugs and birds foraging during the day, hiding in caves at night to chirp or hiding in the woods to rest, people are tired during the day, doing what they like at night, or a favorite TV series, or a card game, or having a supper with a few rare friends, or like me, walking alone on the country road, looking at the stars, letting their minds relax a little, doing a whimsical thought.
At this time, your heart and chest suddenly became open, and the nerves that were usually tense also stretched out at once. The inner pressure in your usual work has also dissipated, because at this moment, you suddenly understand what the essence of life is, and you also understand what is really happy in life. That is, we should conform to the nature of our own lives, to enjoy the process of life, everything, let nature is the best arrangement!
