Now in winter time all kind of cabbage is very common. So as brussels sprots, cauliflower and pointed cabbage. I like all of them, especially brussels sprots. Also as soon as autumn beginns you can get pumpkins on many roadsides ready for takeaway. And of course apples are very important and all year round everywhere available. They are often used to make apple pie or, what I like to bake are apple muffins. There is also apple juice a very common drink, especially in autumn.

It’s overcast today. Last night, Mom burned her wrist in the kitchen. Unfortunately, she mistreated it. A blister formed and before long, it burst, which led to what I thought was a typical infection. This morning, Dad saw her wound and urged her to go to the clinic. The doctor laughed and said we were overreacting again, the second time this month. He prescribed a bottle of sodium chloride physiological solution for Mom. I’m not sure what it means, but it sounds simple: rinse Mom’s wound with it regularly for the next few days, and everything should be just fine. I can take care of it.

I highly appreciate that the elders can still try to learn new things. First, the average lifetime of human has been greatly expanded when compared with the situation decades ago. It is due to the high level of medical maturity and the continuous improvement of living standards. So 65 is not a age of dying but a age of happy retired life. Second, 65 is a great age when most people can have both time and money, with a relatively healthy body, you can do a lot of things if you want. So it is also a good time to learn something new. Finally, I think it is never too late to learn something new no matter how old we are, because holding curiosity to the world is just a life attitude, it is a way to make people feel they are alive and life is meaningful.

I always imagine what my life will be after retiring. Travel, a variety of tasty foods or walking around in a park come into my mind most. Everything after retiring sounds quiet and interesting. Any annoying things won't bother me. But when I look around, none has the perfect life after retiring. As the world changes rapidly by technology, everyone is required to learn new things.I can imagine that what my life will be without smart phones. I can't even pay for my items in a cashless society. I will retire at the age of 65, but I will still be one part of the society. We still need to live with young people. Everything around me won't change beside my role in the world. I will have two options. One is to learn new things to make sure that my life won't get inconvenient. The other is to stay away from the society.
