Ride a conversation with yourself

44-1(4)        How long has it been since you slowed down and rested? When I was a child, I studied diligently in order to get into a good school, enter a good university, and find a good job after leaving society. Only then can I have sufficient food and clothing in the future. However, even if we enter society and our busy lives do not stop, we still need to set new goals and strive to climb higher. So, everyone, every day, is like being pushed forward by an invisible pair of hands, constantly running forward

        44-3(3)        Being in a hurry has almost become a standard feature for modern people, and it is hard to remember how long it has been since I had a deep conversation with myself without settling in. So one Sunday, I decided to get on my bike and readjust my pace.

        Everyone has their own way of relieving stress. Maybe they go to Da Lu Ge to swing their clubs, or they go to KTV with their friends to sing loudly, but for me, 'cycling' is the best choice. Because every time I ride to a town or city, facing familiar or unfamiliar streets, it is full of unknown and surprises. If navigation allows me to follow familiar paths, I will savor scenery that I have never noticed before; If navigation allows me to ride unfamiliar and rugged mountain roads, then I will embark on the journey carefully and bravely, hoping for a more beautiful scenery at the destination.

                In life, why not often face choices? Choosing a familiar and flat route can indeed achieve our goal relatively safely, but can we gain innovative insights from the unchanging process? And while choosing difficult and bumpy roads, can we smoothly pass the challenges and add a glorious record to ourselves?

        The purpose of this cycling trip was set at "Checheng" in Nantou. At 8 o'clock in the morning, I embarked on this journey to find myself with my friends. Starting from the spacious and straight Taisan Mountain Line, I passed through Dalin, Meishan, and Douliu all the way, all of which were familiar to me. Without the need for navigation, I freely enjoyed the pleasure of riding; After entering the forest, Zhushan, Shuili, Jiji, and Checheng, it was a road section that I was not familiar with. Although there was navigation, we were still cautious, afraid of accidentally hitting the Three Treasures on the road or speeding violations.

        I ride a bike while watching the scenery and thinking about life. Can the recent work projects be completed as scheduled? Can you deliver outstanding results on the tasks assigned by the chief? Thinking about my grandparents getting older and their health deteriorating, perhaps I should take some time to accompany them back to my hometown? If you want to do something well, you must first adjust your physical and mental condition in order to complete your busy work on schedule and have extra energy to handle more things you want to do after work

        Although this journey is nearly 150 kilometers back and forth, it is very worthwhile. By the way, we visited Mazu in Lianxing Palace and Tugong in Zinan Palace, visited the forest road in Checheng, tasted Erping Zhizai Ice and Dong's Taiwanese Meatballs in the water. In addition to enjoying the new experience brought by the beautiful scenery and food, it was also a great gain for me to reorganize my thoughts during the ride. Many worries seemed to be solved. Do you also feel busy and tired? Get on your bike and try talking to yourself!
