Stop when you want to stop

　 When you walk, it is to get to another realm, and when you stop, it is to appreciate life.

　　In the European Alps, there is a very scenic avenue with a slogan that reads, "Walk slowly, and please take care to appreciate!"

　　Modern people seem to be too busy, many people live in this busy world, hands and feet, as if traveling in the Alps, rushing past by car, without time, back a look back, or stop a step to appreciate the scenery, as a result, so that this originally rich and beautiful world, in our eyes empty of everything, only left in the rush and tension, labor and sorrow.

　　There is a Hollywood singer-songwriter, once said some very poignant words, he said: "When I was young, the rush to the top of the mountain, like a horse in the race, with blinders desperately running forward, in addition to the end of the white line, nothing can be seen. My grandmother, seeing me busy like that, was worried and said, 'Son, don't go too fast, or you'll miss a good view on the road!'"

　　"I didn't listen to her at all and thought, "Why would a person, who knows how to walk, stop and waste time? I kept on running, and as the years passed, I had status, and fame and wealth and a family that I loved dearly. But I am not as happy as others, and I don't understand what I have done wrong."

　　The famous singer-songwriter continued, "Once, a singing and dancing troupe performed outside the city and I was the main character, and when the performance was over, the audience applauded for a long time."

　　"The performance was a success, and we were all very happy. But then someone handed me a telegram, from my wife, because our fourth child was born."

　　"Suddenly, I felt sad that with the birth of each child, I was not at home and my wife was alone with the hard work of raising the child."

　　"I had never seen the children take their first steps, their innocent cries and laughter, and I had never heard them, only from their mother, with indirect descriptions."

　　"I remembered what my grandmother had said to me ...... Indeed, I was also estranged from my friends, and I hadn't touched a book or looked at a tree in the garden for a long time. I used to promise to go on vacation with my wife, always cancelled because I was busy."

　　One philosopher said, "One certainly cannot live by thought alone without labor, but a life spent turning incessantly like a machine is even more meaningless."

　　We don't have to schedule our days tightly, always leaving a little space to enjoy the great scenery around us. How to be your own master, that's the important thing.

　　We walk when we want to walk, stop when we want to stop, and discover fun and things to cherish as we wish.

　　Since we have the opportunity to come to this colorful and colorful world, we should be like a traveler, not only to climb mountains and wade through our journey, but also to appreciate and linger.

　　When walking, it is to get to another realm, and when stopping, it is to appreciate life.
