Features: Just like trees have roots, people also have their own roots, which is hometown. No matter how far you go or where you are, even if your accent changes and your habits adjust, making you feel like a stranger, this root is hard to shake. Nostalgia is like a strong and endless silk thread, wherever you go, it always accompanies you forward. Mountains cannot separate; rivers cannot cut. One end is tied to hometown, and the other end is tied to my heart. Hometown is the "chair" in the soul. When you feel exhausted from life's journey in a foreign land, you always rest on it. Hometown is the "anchor" of childhood. When life's boat sails in a foreign land, that homeland always retains the original traces. Hometown is the "huqin" in thoughts, occasionally picked up to play a nameless homesickness melody. Thus, streams of "dīng dīng dōng dōng" flow in the heart. In the spiritual sky of humanity, gratitude is not a fleeting cloud but the clean, deep blue behind the clouds. In the coordinates of human spirit, gratitude is not accidental but eternal. The act of gratitude is natural; it is unconscious, like the ceaseless breath, accompanying the rhythm of life. Humanity's beauty is presented through love, and gratitude is the most beautiful seed in the field of the human heart. After it sprouts, it blooms into flowers of love and bears fruits of love. In this sense, those who understand gratitude must hold great love in their hearts, using it to care for, comfort, cherish, and love others. This book collects 87 inseparable hometown stories, allowing you to feel the emotions, warmth, and beauty of the world.
