26 before I was 26 years old, I had never left home. I went to school in the countryside since I was a child, and went to the city for three years to study. After graduation, I returned to our township government to work. I thought I would never have the possibility of "making a living in another place" or ", all over the world for home " in my life. I envy those who "study, work in other places, especially those who settle their homes in other places and return to their hometowns during festivals. That is what it means to stay in remote areas for a lifetime, and a good man is determined by all directions!
This has led to the follow-up that I abandoned my job as a civil servant for seven years and went to the provincial capital to wander to find a job and buy a house to settle down. After settling in the provincial capital and having childbirth, I moved my household registration to the provincial capital, thinking that I would never return to my hometown, and my hometown is just a "literary hometown".
"drifted" alone for two years, then fell back to the provincial capital. Connecting is a profession.
This is stable in the provincial capital. Ten years later, I have children. Start a business and often go out to run. But my home is still in the provincial capital, I run and I'm just on a business trip. The center of the circle is still home.
Three years ago, in order to "grow a big business", he moved away by himself. No, he was stripped of his home and lived alone in City P. This stay lasted for two and a half years! As the project went from promotion to failure, my family was also banned from returning. I claimed to be "exited from home and stayed in another place to inspect." During
, I basically adapted to living alone and felt that every piece of soil nourishes people. As long as I have money to earn, read books, and benefit writing, this place of peace of mind is my hometown, a foreign land, and does not exist. The children and family are just a company that drives back for two hours.
This summer, the boat was eager to sink and jump and move finally arrived. I was stationed in S County, another province. It has not been visible for half a year! From summer to autumn, we celebrate the epidemic, late autumn has passed, and winter has begun! After staying at home thousands of miles away for one night for the last time, I didn’t know where to move! I am homeless! I was "exited from my family and stayed in another province and did not observe it"! When I go back, I can only stay in a hotel!
This county has the same climate as its hometown and is both in the north, with little difference. The city changes, the nucleic acid remains the same; the seasons change, clothes are sent; wherever you go, you will make money and study alone; but the center of the circle is gone, and it only changes from City P to County S, from other places to other places!
Actually live here, the difference in food, accent, express address, and public account released by the epidemic cannot make me feel surprised. This kind of surprise certainly has caused a certain alienation effect on past life and cultural experience, even in the Internet age. Xiao Cheng (a male colleague), who lived with me for a revolutionary purpose, came from Jiangxi to Shandong, from to to the north, from "never traveled far away" to "going so far and long", this kind of surprise and alienation is naturally N times stronger than me. Every time we call in hometown dialect, it is a manifestation of surprise and alienation. He couldn't stand pancakes and only liked to eat rice. He didn't even have cotton jackets or cotton shoes, and didn't know what heating was. Fortunately, he still has home to go back! I have a wife and a child and I am concerned about greeting him!
I am turning this life experience into a gift, taking alienation and wandering as a paradigm of thinking, gaining a certain "multiple field of view" and guarding what is usually lost by the "comfortable mind".
In ancient times, those literati who became officials from other places, young people left home and had no network of information transmission had this mentality, right?
