5 months ago, we moved to a
mountainous village. My parents were
worried about me in the beginning. But
they were surprised to see how easily
I could adapt to1 my new life. Though
my parents sometimes find it difficult
to live here, for me every day is a new
adventure.
“Childhood is simplicity. Look at
the world with the child’s eye - It is
beautiful.”
This is the last year of my school. In
adolescence6, friend influence is very
strong. I am happy that all teenagers
around me are hardworking and try
hard to enter the university.
“Friendships in childhood are usually
a matter of chance, whereas in
adolescence they are mostly a matter of
choice.”
I live alone and try not to depend
on anyone. Becoming a self-sufficient2
adult is the first step of
early adulthood3. This period is also
a self-discovery4 period and it is very
important to know what you want in
this life and then pursue5 your purpose.
I am lucky that I already know what I
want from this life and how I am going
to get it.
“Adulthood is not an age but a stage of
knowledge of self.”
Since my retirement7,I have had a lot of
time to spend with my grandchildren.
I love spending time with them as they
are full of energy and joy.
In my early adulthood, I didn’t have
much time to spend with my family.
Now in my late adulthood, I double
down on8 spending more meaningful
time with them.
“Retirement is not the end of the road. It
is the beginning of the open highway.”
