Living In The Country

Childhood is important for children’s personality. That is because when children become an adult, the personality will follow him or her. A person can influence his or her country. We like good and honest people, but not criminals. Good people can make this country strong and developed. Bad people can make this country weak and bad. So when people are in childhood it is important to choose their living place, because it can influence people when they are growing up. Living in the country has more benefits such as natural environment, simple people, and simple family.

First, we can think about the natural environment. The natural environment includes forest, trees, animals, and fresh air. This condition can help you live well and keep your health. It keeps health, because fresh air can make your thinking clear; a nature view can make your mind feel relaxed. When you are living with other animals, you can learn other knowledge about life. You need to respect other life in this world, so you can live with them peacefully. This kind of learning can help you build a good personality; for example, it will make you kind and friendly. Also their mind always stays in a relaxed situation and you won’t be violent.

Moreover, there are simple people, because you live in this kind of environment. This living environment influences everyone. So most people are also kind and friendly. Everyone will help each other, such as your neighbor. Usually the country doesn’t have many people; that means everybody will know each other. People are simple and they just work for a living. They do simple work such as growing corn. When you grow up in this condition, you’ll learn the original way to survive. It can make you strong and more independent. Your friendly neighbors are also your best friends; they can teach you something that you can’t learn in school. I believe people can influence people; they influence each other. Good people will influence a person to be good. That’s why the people who live around you are so important.

Third, your family can influence you when you grow up. The family living in country is usually simple, because people living in the country are always kind and friendly. Your parents or grandparents will give you a positive demonstration. They are all good people, and they want you be a good person. Your family members, just like other people who live in the country, are good and honest. That’s why you can learn many good things from them. For example, your parents grow some corn, and they will teach you how to grow it. Sometimes you need to help them, and then you can understand how hard their work is. Your mind will be more strong and independent.

Many people say they like to live in a city; it has more fun and interesting things; however, this means there are more chances to let you become a unfriendly person. The city has more interesting things, which also means more lures. Some lures can make people do some bad things such as violence. Sometimes they use any way to do something and don’t care about others. People who live in the city are also selfish, because they always want to make more money, and they spend their time working. They don’t have time to care about others. A lot of people who live in a city don’t even know their neighbor. Everyone just does his or her own business. If you grow up in this condition, maybe you will become more greedy, and selfish, or even violent. I really don’t think growing up in a city is a good idea.

It is very easy to compare living in the country or city. The country is closer to original human life. City life has evolved too far from a nature condition. Childhood is very important for a person. If they can develop their mind and personality in a positive way, it is good for this society. Friendly people work and live together, help each other, and solve problems. We don’t want a selfish society. So it is really important to choose a good environment to let children grow up in. Country life includes a lot of benefits. It really is the best choice you can see.
