I have a dream that I can retire with a sufficient money when I am in my forties. By that time I can do something I have dreamt for long. I may buy a small grocery in a small town. I am the boss and my wife is a grocery's wife. Of course, my kids are sons and daughters of a grocery.
Everyday, life is casual and easy. I can earn a little money to support my family. Money is not a problem, for I have earned enough for the rest of my life. The people there are friendly and familiar to my family. Sometimes I will invite my friends to come for a sit-down, or playing basketball. When meeting, my friends and I can recall the unforgettable times when we are careless young guys. We drink, laugh and sing songs which are fashionable in our young age. Then we talk about our friends' happiness and unhappiness and maybe laugh out or cry for them.
My children are no more sons and daughters of two scholars or executive staff, but of two learned citizens. They may not go to school if they do not need it. However, they must be educated. The most important thing they should learn is to be honest, sincere and loyal in life and modest, critical and creative in career. Of course I will teach them whatever I know if they need, but how to be a man comes first. They can make friends with anybody.
When I get the passion to travel, I will set off without hesitate. It can last for half a year. For example, I may rent an apartment in the suburb of Florence or Milan. During the 'work days', I may do some job, like teaching Chinese or math for some entertainment. When it is the 'play days', I will travel and feel the place I travel and feel it with patience. It is really a good way of traveling.
This is my dream. It can be a grovery in a small town, a farm in the countryside or a small bookstore in a big city, whatever like that.
