Yesterday my mother told me a joke that a farmer from an isolated village said that he was willing to collect dung if he could become the village one day. At the time, happiness and yearning appeared on his face. To some degree, their sense of happiness is quite different from that of people in the city. When I was a child, I usually looked forward to the coming of the Spring Festival. At the time, my mother always said, “Whether we have money or not, we should have our hairs cut to enjoy the festival.” So she would burn a bowl of hot water and wetted my shaggy black hairs. Then she would shave my head and I would feel quite comfortable. Later on, I realize that shaving head could fully show farmers’ spirit. Besides, my father would kill a pig and we will feel very happy no matter whether it is large, small, fat or thin. But we couldn’t eat up all the meat, for my father would carry a pig leg to sell on the market and buy several firecrackers, spring festival scrolls, fruit drops and cotton prints. At the moment, I didn’t know how people in the city celebrated the New Year. In fact, happiness is just a feeling, which has nothing to do with incomes, materials and environments. The poor have their own happiness, and the rich have their own misfortune too. There are many references of happiness, and we can compare us with others or ourselves, and we can also compare our past with our future. Farmers often feel happy when they compare with people around them or their elder generations. Even though they compare them with citizens, they often compare their advantages with their disadvantage. In their eyes, life in the city isn’t steady, for people are often threatened by unemployment. Besides, the competition in the company is very fierce and some people intrigue against each other and run after money and fame. On the contrary, country folks are simple, honest and pure, so they are satisfied with a bag of cigarette and a pot of wine. Besides, they are never afraid of being tired or laborious. I believe happiness could infect and become enlarged and farmers are hard-working, happy and plain. In short, do you want to know more about stones?
