Phoenix City Qi Ruhong: Life Essays Deciding on the Moment December is here, and there are many festivals and activities this month. Since I am retired and have free time, I usually choose suitable activities to participate in, which can not only kill time, celebrate joyfully, but also provide entertainment and entertainment. I can have fun with others and increase the interest of life. Regarding the choice of festival activities, it is easy to decide when you are not retired. Due to time constraints, it is almost impossible to choose. You can only adapt to the time and local conditions, that is, when you are free on vacation and when the event location is near your home, participate immediately. There is no other way. Now that I'm retired, I have plenty of time. It's boring to have no programs, but sometimes there are too many programs and I'm at a loss as to what to do. It's not easy to filter out the time, location, expenses, how to mobilize, and how to allocate. As far as celebrating Christmas this month is concerned, there are organizations organized by the Senior Citizens Association, the Connaught Building, the Chinese community outside, and the Vietnamese. They are all diverse and exciting. So, which one should you join? Although this is just an insignificant activity, whether to participate or not is not a problem, it is optional; but when the festival comes, various groups try their best to celebrate, and everyone wants to have fun, but we sit at home, isn't it a pity? This week, you can see a lot of information about festival activities in the reports and advertisements in Chinese newspapers in Phoenix, or in the flyers and posters placed in various markets. There are of course many Chinese associations, and the colorful Vietnamese printed song and dance music promotion street signs are also quite attractive. There are also TV program introductions, concerts of Hong Kong and Taiwanese singers, people from the east and west of the United States taking the stage, you can choose at will. There is a saying in Cantonese that "the eyes are too bright". Don't think that these ordinary entertainments have nothing to do with daily life. It is also a knowledge to really choose to participate. For example: I originally planned to participate in a wonderful program and meet up with relatives and friends to have fun together, but this led to different opinions, discussions on choices, push and pull, and hesitation. In the end, I was not given the opportunity, and the opportunity was missed, which turned into empty talk. After such a situation, I have confirmed a problem. Whether it is work or entertainment, when faced with making a choice, you must make an immediate decision without hesitation. "Building a house next to the road", if you listen to too many opinions and think over and over again, you will make a mistake. This situation is a bit like a reporter who is new to the industry. He is tasked with a special interview by a newspaper. Faced with various experiences on the scene, complex dynamics on and off the stage, and various opinions, he does not know how to choose or choose the plot, and he is not sure about writing a good news report. The same goes for those of us who love writing. Many things happen every day. They may seem the same and unremarkable, but if you observe carefully, you can find extraordinary plots in the ordinary. With the descriptions of excellent authors, you can create good articles. Just like the old man and the sea, they are commonplace, but Hemingway knew how to pick up the essence, describe it decisively, and complete the masterpiece "The Old Man and the Sea". Closer to home, in the face of the many festivals this month, I no longer have half-hearted thoughts, and no longer consult and discuss with many parties. I feel that organizing a three-day trip to the outskirts of the casino for the elderly on December 18 is the best deal and most suitable. It provides two nights of accommodation, three free buffets, and only costs 65 yuan. It is very cheap, so you can register immediately without delay. I heard that the large tour bus with more than fifty seats was already full. It was a mistake for me to be late. I would definitely have a pleasant journey by then. Fortunately, I made a prompt decision, otherwise, I would have missed the opportunity again!
