Hope we are enjoying the weekend, resting and being at peace with ourselves because there is nothing that supersedes having time to rest so the body can recuperate and charge up for a new energy we need in our everyday existence.
And that is why our environment plays lots of important roles in our lives, especially when it comes to residential and place of abode because they help us in decision making. This means that where we reside determines how our life and lifestyles turns out due to how environmental factors affects mostly the person we choose to be.
Majority of humans decides to leave the rural area to live in the urban environment mostly because of how to make ends meet either through working 9:00 to 5:00, or that they decide to leave the rural environment for business successfulness in a city 🌆 which they feel can not be achieved in the rural areas - security most times not the main factor.
And considering the question where money and security are not an issue, the next determinant factor boils down to the type of lifestyle an individual wants to live because of the era we are in called the 21st century where everything is moving so fast and the world appears to be evolving constantly.
We all know that the rural areas are places with calmness and peace of mind unlike the city 🌆 where apart from the hustle and bustle , we enjoy many other opportunities like the fast spread of information, easy access to internets, innovations we see here and there, various supermarkets that helps us with variety of products for good health .
I will never want to live in the rural area with all the opportunities in the urban area like the well equipped hospitals with quick services since income is not even a problem. Meeting people and networking with them which I feel will keep my body and brain very active unlike in the rural areas where everything looks dull and the same, especially without much innovation, mostly older people around the environment.
This century is fast paced lifestyle that enables the youth opportunities, although we could say the urban environment comes with so many challenges like traffics that leaves us stressful, pollutions, noise, crowds of people, high cost of living, but I could also say that everything in life is two sided coin 🪙. Nothing is ever totally 💯 in equation.
Living in the rural areas will only give us calmness, peace of mind, enjoying nature and natural, but will not even give you opportunity to enjoy the money 💰 you are making, trying other new things, the opportunity to enjoy some activities like going to the park, the beach 🏖 and connecting with friends around the world and be in know of things and trends.
In conclusion, I feel like the rural dwellings should be mostly for the aged and less ambitious ones who has retired and those who just want to live a simple lifestyles because rural area is not a place for big dreams and successfulness. It does not allow us the opportunity to grow more in life or connect properly for those achievements we set goals and objectives for. Rural areas are for resting after retirement while the urban environment is the start point place for life goals and successfulness.
