When I was younger, I used to always imagine what it felt like to be an adult. During those days I'm being so keen to try ladies apparel and being so loud talking about growing up, my big sister would always say, "Hey, don't get too excited to grow up, because when you're already an adult, I'm sure you would wish to be a kid once again." Now that I'm in my 20s, those lines sting my heart, and I would always go back with that phrase with much agreement. It's indeed true that adulting is so hard, and sometimes I just wish I could go back to being an innocent child who knows nothing but having fun.
Now that I'm already in my adulting stage and am currently building the life that I want for us in the future, I now understand what my sister told me. However, despite all that, everything that's heavy will instantly vanish when I'm home in the province. That's why I'm constantly longing for and wanting to be here whenever I have time. Life may be stressful, but there exists a place where I can decompress and meditate for a while. Province is my comfort place, with a breath of fresh air and my loved ones that instantly soothe my heart and lighten my burdened mind.
Not only that, but aside from a bright view of the morning sun rising, there is a stunning view of the sun setting. By looking at this wonderful scenery, it actually made me reminisce about those wonderful childhood memories back then, right when I still wasn't able to appreciate these wonders of nature and when everything seemed so ordinary for me. But now, I always find myself fascinated by everything I see.
A time spent here in the province means an abundance of opportunities to enjoy the lush surroundings, including gazing at the clouds, blue skies, sunrises, sunsets, and, at the end of the day, a starry night with a dazzling moon. Just that, time is fleeting; when I'm in my most comfortable place, it moves swiftly. It therefore makes perfect sense why I make most of the day whenever I go home, because coming back to the city is a different kind of life.
