我的祖父母一直过着简朴的生活。未雨绸缪地储蓄和杜绝无节制的消费是他们的人生信条之一。比起通过物质来寻求满足,他们更愿意和家人在一起共度珍贵时光,享受大自然。这些年来,我的祖父母发现他们所在的社区发生了翻天覆地的变化。每年,越来越多的农田被吞噬,用以建造更大的房子,且情形愈演愈烈。
My grandparents actively practiced simplicity. Saving for a rainy day and avoiding rampant consumerism was integral to their life philosophy. Rather than seeking fulfillment through material items they chose to spend quality time together, with family, and in nature.
