In the community where I live, there are such a group of people, men and women. Most of them are in their fifties and sixties, with stable retirement wages and happy families, and some of them have already married their grandchildren. They have worked hard in their posts for half their lives. After retirement, they began to go to universities for the aged, learn painting, yoga, writing, cheongsam show and tea ceremony, and often meet to travel and visit the great rivers and mountains of the motherland happily and noisily. Their lives are colorful and free, and they are more chic than young people.
Sister Yuan is one of them. She is over 6 years old. After retirement, she studied in a writing training class with me. When she was young, she was very talented in writing, but because of the need to make a living, she didn't dream in the literary sky. Now, when she has time, she will join a training class, start with simple writing with young people, learn skills and methods, and publish her own articles in the newspaper.
Seeing how serious she is, I can't help asking curiously, "Why did you learn to write at your age? If you want to call it a name, you don't need those false names when you retire; Let's say it's for profit. Writing costs so little, which is insignificant for those of you who have a high retirement salary. What are you doing? " Sister Yuan said with a smile: "In this so-called aging period, many social tasks have been completed, but people can ignore their age, really live their own life, do what they like, and regain their dreams. We are a fashionable and popular' no age' lifestyle! " Who can escape the control of age in this world? Seeing my curiosity, Sister Yuan began to explain to me the "ageless" lifestyle prevailing among the elderly.
A "youth-free" life refers to maintaining a life attitude that is not burdened by age, just like when you were young, even after you get old. But this is not blindly refusing to accept old age, it refers to a psychological state and attitude towards life. People with "no sense of age" are often not bound by age. They are always energetic in life, full of curiosity and love for new things, like to try, feel the beauty of every stage of life with their hearts, strive for progress and constantly release positive energy. The goal pursued by people with "no sense of age" is to live beautifully and wonderfully without regrets.
After listening to what Sister Yuan said, I thought of Yang li Ping, Liu Xiaoqing and Alan Tam, the famous elderly stars. I thought that this kind of age-blind life was only available to stars. It turned out that "the sense of being young" had already become a fashion in modern life.
