Win the peace

Win the peace

By KEVIN PARKERPublished 3 years ago 3 min read

This is such a strange thing.

A mother, because his son is sick, allergic to noise, and the child has to do homework, in order to win a moment of peace in the community at night, in order to try to earn a rare peaceful time for the child, she went door to door to explain to the householders, hoping that from 8 p.m. to 10 p.m., there will be no noise.

Some fairy tales, noise has not been legislated, high heels on the stairs is also a sonorous and powerful, the neighbor children's play is also a harmonious sound, why listen to your arrangement?

Especially below the community is the facade, Open Day and night, do not let drive after drinking, driving has become a fashion, drivers freely open their voice to drink and roar, will be decades of career all into the glass. Gongs and drums are beating, and there is no day or night in the city; There are also some old people eager to prolong life, playing music in the square of the community, stepping on the drum to meet the advent of health.

All in all. The mother hurriedly ran for half a month, only some conscious people reluctantly agreed to the mother's request, they tried to slow down the pace of life, in order to take care of the sick child.

But most people just laugh it off and leave it alone. Since your child is sick, why not find a paradise, do not need to study in the city, the noise of the school is more loud.

It is not easy to find a place in the city, mother and father need to work during the day, and now the policy is good, the child can find a decent school to restart the learning career.

You have to learn to adapt to the society, but can not let the society adapt to you. The mother prescribed the best prescription for her child.

It is very difficult to conquer a physical disease with psychology.

Children study with their ears plugged every day. At about eight o 'clock in the evening, the mother brought the door, and the child was alone at home doing his homework. The mother prowled the streets alone, whispering thanks every time she saw anyone passing below her house.

The dancing old man moved the place, the dance venue moved to the nearby park, although it is far away, but it is easy to walk, you can also exercise your body, and look at the night scene of the city.

But the vast majority of people, do not understand the mother's pains, roar is also my right, without interference from anyone and anything.

When the child's studies fell like the stock market during the financial crisis, the mother thought of a good way. She wrote an advertisement: buy two hours of peace at night with money.

The leaflets have been supported by the leaders of the community, the walls of the community, the doors of the families, covered with this small advertisement, the mother door by door, ten dollars, half a month, the owner dared not pick up, ask to understand, just know that their own performance disturbs the lives of others.

Of course, there will be payoffs, too, from those who are desperate for money: give me peace, I am selling my peace, you should give me a proper reward.

This is probably the most peaceful neighborhood in the city. At dinner time, the street was empty, and the crowd gathered in the restaurant in twos and threes, but the boss entrusted the guests, I have sold out the peace of this moment, please keep peace.

Just know that a man and a woman can make eye contact so quickly;

Just know that the life after peace is so comfortable and free, the heart is empty, and life is fine.

In fact, what we lack most is not money, what is more important than money is health, and what is most conducive to health is not noise, but quiet thinking, the quality of enjoyment and the supreme silence.
