One night, at the dinner table. "Grandma, I've only eaten white rice for the past two or three days, and there are no vegetables!" As soon as I finished complaining, my grandma laughed and replied, "Tomorrow, there may not even be white rice!" My grandmother and I looked at each other and laughed together. That was more than forty years ago.In retrospect, it was also from that time that the entire society began to undergo rapid changes: the government budget doubled, the economy grew rapidly, the yen appreciated and the dollar devalued, the university student movement continued, school violence soared, the economic bubble, the oil crisis, employment difficulty……

Although everyone said: "The current world is really depressed!" In fact, these things are nothing to me, it just feels like it's back to the past. It is not the world that changes, but the people themselves that really change. Insufficient money, unable to eat in big restaurants, unable to travel abroad, unable to afford brand-name clothes... For these reasons, people feel unhappy, so they try their best to pursue the so-called "happiness". The following words may be helpful to those who have been eliminated.In fact, layoffs can be thought of as relief from the life of "getting up at eight o'clock in the morning, rushing to the company by tram, working, working overtime, socializing at a flattering banquet, and taking the last tram home..." .The husband and wife or the whole family can discuss together what to do in the future, which will enhance communication and communication with the family.

Whether things are good or bad depends entirely on how people think. "Because I don't have money, I'm not happy." I feel like people are pretty much locked into this idea.Because adults think so, of course children are also insecure.Because adults can't take them to Disneyland or buy them new clothes, they don't respect their parents.Because of poor grades, I couldn't get into a good school, and even I felt that my future was bleak.Because of the pessimistic mentality, children live a boring life every day and have no hope for the future, and juvenile delinquency continues to increase.In fact, even if you really have no money, as long as you have an optimistic mood, you can live comfortably.

My grandmother is such a person. I was fostered at my grandmother's house when I was a child.She was born in 1900, born at the same time as the twentieth century, so she can be called a person of the past generation. After my grandfather died during the war in 1942, my grandmother worked as a cleaner at Saga University and its affiliated middle school and elementary school. She raised seven children, two boys and five girls, and survived the difficult period of post-war reconstruction. It was 1958 when I went to live with my grandma. Grandma was fifty-eight years old, and she was still working as a cleaner.Of course life is not rich, but she is always so cheerful, optimistic and full of energy.As for me, in the days when I lived with my grandmother, I understood the true meaning of happiness.

In 1991, after my grandmother passed away at the age of ninety-one, I had a deeper understanding of the various life revelations she gave me. Now, everyone seems to be in a state of confusion.Give up the happiness you had forty years ago, and go all the way in the direction of misfortune. ——Everyone is going the wrong way! Listen to the words of the super grandma Saga! Happiness is not about money, but depends on your state of mind.
