Go herding sheep with her.

"I want to give up that pasture and go with her to herd sheep." —— Wang's In that Far Away Place.

The lyrics of Wang's song are actually poorly written. "I'd like to be a lamb and go with him to herd sheep." This sentence is not good, the upper and lower sentences rhyme, the suffix is repeated, and the image is unknown. No wonder some people say that this song shows some hidden masochistic porn mentality.

I had a serious discussion with her about emigrating to New Zealand. Later, the conclusion was whether New Zealand was good or not, but when I got there, I couldn't find a suitable job or business except to buy a pasture and raise a group of sheep, cattle and sheepdogs. Every sky facing good mountains and waters is just lonely. This becomes immigration for the sake of immigration, which is not feasible from the economic point of view.

So I put this topic aside for the time being.

In fact, I really yearn for that kind of life. As long as we are healthy and happy together, what's wrong with going to New Zealand as a farmer? I am willing to give up everything to go herding sheep with her.

The year before last, I went to the dentist. The doctor said I had a small sarcoma in my mouth. Because of a long-term protrusion caused by poor occlusion, the doctor suggested removing it as soon as possible and testing the results. I was frightened by the doctor's words, so I removed it.

I thought a lot during the week of waiting for the test results. Think that if the lesion is malignant, this life will end like this?

She read my mind and said, don't be ridiculous Even if the result is not good, it is not a big deal. A little problem. Even if we take 10 thousand steps back, the result is very poor, so we don't want to travel around the world and go anywhere. If you don't want to leave, stay there. No matter where you go, I will accompany you. You like penguins so much, let's go to the South Pole.

One night, watching her sleep quietly beside me, I cried quietly.

As beautiful as flowers and jade, as water flies. How did this life end like this? We are going to many beautiful places together.

One of the things that attracted me to New Zealand was that I saw a group of penguins there for the first time, and I fell madly in love with this animal from then on. Second, there is a sense of desolation at the end of the day. The first time I went, I was shocked by the novel Starry Sky and Ocean in the Southern Hemisphere. I like to walk hand in hand with her by the sea, watching the idle cattle and sheep on the hillside get lost, and I like to stand at the door of the shepherd's church in the dark and listen to the sound of pine cones falling.

The test results came out. It's okay.

But in this life, there will always be a day when the end comes suddenly. At that time, I hope to travel around the world with her at once and go to pasture on the horizon to herd sheep.
