Three years of drifting in foreign lands, I personally feel that it has changed a lot:
first, it has become "slow", waiting quietly when traffic jams, without plugging or whistling; getting medical injections is accustomed to making phone calls or email appointments, waiting silently; working is not too slow, repeating the same job over and over again; children's learning is whatever they like, and they can accept everything in the future; watching the disabled people get on the bus calmly and slowly getting on the bus...
Second, it has become "civilized". It is used to making way for other cars when driving, it is used to keep saying "thank you", "disturbing" and "sorry", it is used to smile at strangers, it is used to tip the waiter, it is used to sort garbage anytime, it is used to respect every small animal, it is used to praise others...
Third, it is become "simple", it is used to costco Buy one or two T-shirts and shirts, used to buying all kinds of treasures in second-hand stores, used to wearing work clothes to attend parties, used to driving cheap used cars...
Fourth, I became "lazy", I was content with having a job to support my family, I was too lazy to return to my old career to write articles, I was too lazy to study and test and seek to be motivated, I was too lazy to flatter my leaders and bosses, I was too lazy to socialize after get off work, I was too lazy to care about my children's studies and grades, I was too lazy to boil water and drink tap water directly, I was too lazy to wash the car and shine my shoes all year round...
