The slow life you yearn for has long been written in poetry by the ancients
"In the past, the sun has become slow, the car, the horse, and the mail are all slow."
The fast-paced modern society has made "slow" a luxury.
And when we sigh, the ancients have long lived an enviable slow life.
This slow life is not doing nothing,
But with the flowers and birds of heaven and earth as neighbors,
Make friends with piano, chess, calligraphy and painting,
Look at all things, look at yourself.
"Plain and calm is true", may your life be as elegant, comfortable and calm as the ancients.
