Home——Forever Harbor

Taking advantage of the end of the holiday, I hurried back to my parents’ home. It was the busy farming season at home - collecting tea seeds. The elderly father and mother, who had just broken her arm, went into the mountains to get busy. As soon as I got home, my husband was busy preparing lunch, and I was tidying up and sorting it out. I didn't even have time to take a photo. After lunch, I cleaned the kitchen and hurriedly took the children back to the city.

As we grow older, have children, and experience life, the concept of home is constantly changing.

Home is the place where you want to escape after you are afraid of your parents’ nagging when you are a child;

A comfortable life is a harbor that you will care about.

Home is the warmest place when you become a parent and your parents are old. There are the people I love the most, and there are people who will miss and care about you all your life.

? My parents, they are ordinary farmers, who raised us sisters with their hard-working hands and wisdom.

My father served as a soldier in Xinjiang in the 1970s and has experienced most of China's history. He has experienced ups and downs in his career. Although we are not rich and powerful, we had no worries about food and clothing during our childhood, and the education expenses of several sisters were enough. Never stopped. The most valuable asset he brought to me was his lifelong open-mindedness and optimistic attitude, his integrity and tolerance for others, which influenced me all the time.

My mother is like all mothers in the world: kind, hard-working, simple and frugal. With her hard-working hands, she silently contributed to the family. Even when she was very unwell, she could not stop being busy, raising chickens, ducks, growing vegetables, digging soil... Every time she went home, she was always told to do less. Don't worry about it. She always promised verbally that she would do well, but she still couldn't stop. As a result, her health remained poor and she suffered from many diseases.

As we are about to enter our forties, we are becoming more and more independent in our hearts, and we are even more afraid of getting sick suddenly, because we have elderly parents who need support, young children who need to be accompanied, and lovers who need to join hands... …

? Three years ago, my aunt who lived in Liuyang (unfortunately passed away last year) went back to her natal family several times with our car and said something like this in the car. When your parents are here, you should go back to see them more often; when your parents are away, you have few opportunities to go home, so you should go back when you have the opportunity, so that brothers and sisters can gather together, once, not once...

? I have always liked this sentence. The reason why people are happy is not because they get more, but because they care less! I have used it as my signature in QQ space for more than ten years. It always reminds me to cherish what I have now, happiness and Good luck will always be with you.

All surprises and good luck are due to your accumulated gentleness and kindness. Be a gentle, kind-hearted person with a strong heart, warm yourself, and illuminate others! ?
