To the generation after 70 who are getting old
In Maugham's novel The Moon and Sixpence, strickland, the hero, once said: "Sometimes I want to go to a lonely island in the middle of a vast ocean. I could live in a valley that no one knows, surrounded by unknown trees and silent. There, I think I can find what I'm really looking for."Strickland is a person with very low requirements for material life. What he pursues is spiritual enjoyment. Just because his worldly desires become less, his life will become more and more relaxed and happy.Write to gradually old 70 hind: one twinkling of an eye, quick retired, the rest of life live soIn the French writer Defoe's novel "Robinson Crusoe", the hero Robinson is so.He was accidentally stranded on a lonely island during a voyage, but he didn't feel hard. On the contrary, he had no worldly desires, got up early and went to bed early every day, watched the sunrise and sunset, and lived a life of contentment.In his opinion, what really troubles a person and makes a person live an extremely depressed and painful life is not the lack of money itself, but too much desire and vanity. If we could realize earlier that the world is our own and has nothing to do with others, maybe we would not live in comparison with others and make ourselves more and more tired.After reaching middle age, gradually approaching retirement, at this time we should be a little more rational and sober, a little less confused and confused, as far as possible to let oneself live happy, live happy.If you have reached middle age, you should have a specific plan for the rest of your life.British writer Rachel Joyce's novel The Pilgrimage of A Man is worth reading again and again.

If the companion is suddenly gone, the regret and emptiness in your heart may no longer be filled.A typical example is his neighbor, who is in his seventies. After his wife left, he realized what she meant to him. Unfortunately, I never got a chance to say SORRY to her.The wife loved clean, two people often conflict and quarrel, who refused to let who.

Wellness on Wheels
Passed on the Pass, Sort of My friend Alexis and I biked an 18-mile hill climb to 12,095 ft today! The Top of the Rockies on Independence Pass out and back from Aspen, Colorado. This was our 2nd annual ride, and we chose to ride it in May prior to the pass opening to traffic. The pass is narrow, gradual and scenic, and it ignites the expansion of view, elevation and heart. We ascended at a chat pace, with philosophical, spiritual and gratitude-enriched stirrings presenting themselves in intervals. We’d giggle, catch our breath and giggle some more. When our chat was dissolved by silence, wilderness-inspired hypnosis set in, and we pedaled to the groove of our own pulse in sync with the pulse of the Pass. It is a rhythm that soothes the soul and that eternally lingers in cell and spirit.

How to be kind to yourself?
Learn to look inside. Observe yourself inwardly and understand every part of your body, such as heart, brain, blood vessels, liver, lung, kidney, spleen, bones, teeth, eyes, ears and nose, as well as your own mood. Is there anything that worries you, and what causes it? ...what you can control yourself...put yourself in control where you can control it. Spend more time managing yourself, so that you can be in a state of good health, no pain, peace of mind, and no worries. This is to treat yourself kindly.

What is human nature and how to define it?
"The essence of human nature can be divided into two aspects in the narrow sense and the broad sense in everyday terms. In the narrow sense, it refers to the essential psychological attribute of human beings, that is, the part of the attribute that makes human beings human, and the attribute that distinguishes human beings from other animals. In a broad sense, it refers to the psychological attributes that people generally have, including that part of the psychological attributes shared by people and other animals. Whether it is the essential psychological attributes of human beings or the attributes shared by human beings and animals, since they are all common psychological attributes of human beings, such attributes cannot be acquired results, but only human nature, which belongs to unconditional reflection and is the free expression of truth on human beings. When the release of rational human nature freedom, equality, self conscience will give will self desires will return to the good expression of feelings of love, then people will get a meet on personality, physical contentment is happy, spiritual satisfaction is the joy, the personality (body) meet is happiness. Human nature is the full of love, when the truth on the concrete expression of love, love is the source of legal spirit, love is the function of human conscience, love is people to the true, good, beautiful yearning, response and give. Love is the highest expression of truth in man, because everyone has truth, truth is the common essence of man and the universe, showing the rising truth of life. The essence of human nature, that is, everyone has the truth of truth, truth is the common essence of human and the universe, as the existence of human will not lose truth, reflected truth is truly equal. For the first time in human history, the status of man is established on the same level with the universe, and the truth of man develops on the same level with the truth of the universe. Through the rise of personality, man can spread the meaning and steps of life to the universe. From the perspective of sociology, the word human nature is endowed with a variety of norms of behavior, in line with the norms of a certain interest body, it is called "human", at the same time, from the perspective of interest body can be called "inhuman". The sages worked out the rules of "good" behavior, and the wiser men, the strong men, did not follow the sages' advice, but let the ignorant people follow it. (The ignorant people were all ordinary people, from the literate and thoughtless men of letters, the wise men, to the good people.)Humanity is the unity of purpose and wisdom, and the process of using one's own wisdom to achieve one's own purpose. The task of art criticism is to discover and name such human concepts in works.

Living the American Dream
If my ancestors could see what this land would be or know the long term price of having “freedom” they would have just made it work in our homeland. All the lives lost and blood shed just to wear shiny chains in another country, this is not the dream they were chasing.
