Embracing Nature

Here to pen down my bottled up feelings.

Ever since the return of my trip to China, i have been wanting to go back there over and over again. Because the environment there just makes me feel so free and easy, no city life stress and worries, it just make me a really free person.

The place that i visited, Guizhou. The people there lived a life of simplicity but with hardship as company. The things there are very affordable and especially the hand-sewn cloths which are very beautiful and they sell to us tourists at a very low price. I could see that they are coming out to fight for their survival. They are content and patient people and unlike us Singaporeans are always craving for something cheap and and getting frustrated very easily. Their independent ability is very very strong and i can see children that are 5-6 years of age walking alone for 4 hours to and back from school without their parents accompanying them.

Many people of my age prefer shopping and food destinations like South Korea, Japan, Hong Kong. During my trip, there are quite a number of teenagers and children.My brother said that the trip was boring but i beg to differ. Many youngsters today do not know how to appreciate the environment and nature scenery, which help people distress themselves.

I will love to embrace nature and live a simple life and when i grow up and earn enough, i want to visit places with beautiful and spectacular scenery which is of course China, New Zealand, The Swiss Alps etc.

I would encourage my friends and especially Chinese to visit China at least once in their lifetime, i can guarantee the scenery there will put a WOW on their faces and also understand their roots better and clearer.
