72 years old, seventy years old. After experiencing ups and downs for most of my life, some people find life boring. Some people are still warm after the vicissitudes of life, always curious about the world, wrinkled and not limited by age.

Lotus, 72, is a retired teacher at Wuchuan Branch in Zhanjiang, Guangdong. There is no legend about her, and her life track is the same as that of most ordinary people. Go to school, graduate, work, get married, have children ..... There are no ups and downs, and there is no grand occasion.

However, when I was over 70 years old, I put myself in an elegant class, stood among a group of young women and stepped into a new field as a beginner.

Women born in the 1940s have a strong and implicit desire for beauty. However, in the context of the great era, they have to succumb to the responsibility of food and clothing and raising children.

So is the lotus. Work hard for children in the first half, and be busy for children in the second half. Only when the younger generation grows up can I have my own time.

One night two years ago, when she was dancing square dance outside, she was accidentally knocked down by a guy riding an electric car and hurt her leg. After resting at home for a while, I still have sequelae, which makes it inconvenient to walk. "You need someone to help you walk, or you can't walk."

It is difficult for a 70-year-old man to recover from an injury. Her children took her to various hospitals. Although she was able to walk by herself later, her leg strength was not as good as before.

In addition, suffering from severe scapulohumeral periarthritis, I can't lift my hands, and even simple actions such as combing my hair can't be completed. She needs her wife to comb her hair every day.

Long-term fatigue and bad habits have also caused cervical problems. The towering wealth bag is neither beautiful nor affects sleep.

Although it is common for these things to fall on a 70-year-old man, she doesn't want to ignore them. "I want to be healthy, beautiful, elegant and smart, and I want to have the initiative in time."

When she first came into contact with elegant manners, she looked at the "slim and graceful woman with a small waist" in her class, delighted and yearning. "My heart seemed to be hit by something, and my longing for beauty was suddenly ignited, so I signed up for an advanced class."

During the day-to-day training in the advanced class, her legs gradually recovered their strength, and squatting, stretching and half-splitting that could not be done before can be easily completed.

What impressed her deeply was that at the beginning of this year, when she went to Qingyuan to participate in the "202 1 Guofeng Rookie Building Dreams" Thousand-Person Festival, she went to the glass bridge with the sisters of Wuchuan Branch. She tried her best to climb the mountain, but several sisters in the same group needed a rest.

Later, on the premise of comprehensive consideration and ensuring safety, after obtaining the consent and support of her family, her wife personally signed up for her and upgraded from the advanced class to the next class.

The course of Tianhou class starts from every part of the body, and trains and shapes every part in a targeted way, so that the body can return to its original position and be gracefully implanted into the heart.

She set off like a young man. In addition to the gradual recovery of leg strength, her scapulohumeral periarthritis and cervical vertebra problems have also improved, and her sleep is much better than before. During the conversation, she showed us a set of movements, and the whole person was in good spirits. "Before, I was worried that I was old and had a poor foundation, so I couldn't keep up with the pace of class. After completing the three-stage course after school, I have no such worries at all. "

Some sisters in the same period were moved by her perseverance and shared her story with their mothers, encouraging them to go out and study bravely. "Many people often sigh that they are getting old > However, in fact, as long as you keep a curiosity about the world, keep your original heart unchanged, and be fearless like a child, then time will take away your face at most."

When asked if she had any doubts along the way, she was optimistic and always insisted on her choice.

"Some people say that you are 78 years old, why are you still doing this? Tossing is not a patent for young people. No matter how old you are, it is a yearning and attitude to make your life colorful forever. I'm 72 years old, and I'm happy to be able to toss around like a young man. Life is a contest with time. Instead of waiting for time to attack me, I should take the initiative to fight against time. At least I will have no regrets when I really can't walk. "

At the age of 72, she enjoys life without indulgence and is not negative after vicissitudes.

For most people, this is an unattainable optimism. The secret of her optimism is "never too old to learn", and she will always be curious and awed by the world like a child.

In her 70 s, she blooms like a flower in a new field and has many feelings.

"Like my generation, I was born in a relatively barren era. When I was young, my pursuit of beauty and elegance was too limited, but we lived in a good era. I want to be a person who not only retains the advantages of traditional women's hard work and perseverance, but also learns the female spirit of the new era. Keep an optimistic and indifferent attitude in continuous learning and remain elegant on the road ahead. "

May every woman be the master of time, always keep a young mind and be elegant to the end.
