I just read the article on the second half of my life by@頊子Durian, and I have a lot of impressions.

Yesterday, I received the news that another younger brother was going to immigrate, and sent me a message with my mother, "You brothers, the whole family is gone!" ("Going and posting" means leaving)

My wife and I left Hong Kong a few years ago and lived there for three years before returning to Hong Kong. After returning to Hong Kong, his wife fell ill and almost moved directly to heaven. Currently in recuperation, and about to re-enter the community.

At this time, our mentality of re-investing in the community is different.

When life "dies once", the attitude towards the future is very different. This morning we were talking and laughing, and I suddenly felt that this had not happened in many years. In the past, we completely tied work, life and social services together. Such a life, with ten cars, has completely turned life into a business.

Recently, we have been planning for our "second half of life", redefining our goals and future life.

In the second half of my life, I no longer want to find a full-time job, or even impossible to work full-time, otherwise I will not be able to take care of my family, or even neglect my family again.

On the other hand, we do not plan to emigrate, and there may still be many complexes. However, we choose to leave Hong Kong for a few months every year, especially in winter. Because my wife's body cannot withstand the winter weather in Hong Kong.

In the second half of my life, I seem to have suddenly lost the goal of my career in exchange for the goal of living with my family.

A few days ago, a friend told me, "Do this like this, you can make a lot of money...", I thought about it, it seems that I can make a lot of money, but I have no interest. As a result, I said to my friends, "No matter how much money I make, I have less time and I can't enjoy it with my wife. If my wife passes away, I earn more money, and there is no point in enjoying it. It's better to spend more time with her now. , do something that both of us want to do.”

My "second half of life" hopes to change back to what I missed in the first half and make up for all the people and things that have been hurt.
