People are always wondering whether the country or the city is the
ideal place to live. If there is one preference-which I take leave to
make a conclusion-then it is the country rather than the city that
provides people with optimal living conditions. There widespread
testimonies for it and the primary ones are listed as follows.
The foremost reason for dwelling in the countryside is the soothing
and comfortable life provided by the pastoral view. Hardly anyone could
resist the clean atmosphere, the friendly neighbors, the closeness to
nature and the gentle pace of living. Those who have enjoyed the first
cock crow in the morning, the twittering of birds in the tress and the
breathtaking sight of the rising sun would go into rapture at only mere
mention of the idyllic life. Relaxed and suburban dwellers are able to
hold a more positive attitude for life and achieve more accomplishment.
Oppositely, the obvious things brought about by noisy and flashy city
life are more pressure and forever-lasting anxiety, agonizing and
torching people"s mind day in and day out. Another subtle explanation
rests on the fact that country habitants are fortunate enough to enjoy
the cozy and pleasant ambience of the family without exhausting social
life. How satisfactory and refreshing it must be to have dinner together
with your loved ones in the spacious and pastoral surroundings after a
frustrating day! Furthermore, nothing can be compared with the joy of
watching heart warming TV programs, playing convivial games and sleeping
in the tranquil and relaxing atmosphere.
On the contrary, it would be far more difficult to acquire such
pleasure for those urbanites. Consecutive and excessive recreations not
only thrift money but also deteriorate people"s health, which is the
last thing one would like to encounter. Naturally, it is possibly to
reckless to assert that nothing beneficial combines with city life since
several accompanying merits also come along with it. Living in the
metropolis means having more accesses to various people involved in
multiple attractive cultures. Living in the metropolis also provides
plentiful opportunities, both in career and studies.
Nevertheless, the fact that city life makes it more convenient to
purchase a job does not prevent us from concluding that country life is
more enjoyable as well as healthful and placing a certain amount of
reliance on the notion that country life is always the sensible choice.
