Hello everyone, how are you today? I am Teng, in this article I want to share about my life in the countryside. It is also my hometown, where I can feel all the aftertaste of happiness, where I can relieve stress after a busy time of studying and working in the bustling city.
'Friendly, sincere, and simple' are three adjectives to describe the people in my hometown. My hometown is in Ngoc Hoi district, Kon Tum province, Vietnam. Everything here is still quite outdated and still not much developed compared to other places. Therefore, this place still retains a peaceful and natural look, the air is fresh and the people are still very gentle and simple.

My hometown is very beautiful, surrounded by green rice fields, the sound of roosters crowing early in the morning wakes up farmers to prepare for a new working day. In the harvest season of ripe rice, early in the morning, we will be able to smell the aroma of ripe rice in full bloom. In this season, cows will have a large amount of food from the rice plant called “straw”. Everything here is simple and idyllic. The biggest happiness is probably the optimistic smiles of the farmers. They are very satisfied and love their work

Although life is still very difficult, I see that everyone here enjoys this life in a very happy way. My grandfather once said: "Things will never please people because people are very greedy. If we know how to accept it, we will feel the true happiness that life gives us." I was 10 years old then, how could I understand what my grandfather said? Until now, after living more than half of my youth, I began to think about the words my grandfather used to say to me. It is true that nothing is enough if we do not know how to accept it. And you, what do you think about this point of view?
