Opinions vary regarding whether it is better to live in one place all my life than to move from one place to another. I disagree with the statement for the following two reasons. For one thing, moving from one place to another place helps me to open my eyes about the world. Moreover, it allows me to feel happy and excited.
First of all, moving from one place to another place is able to widen my perspective about the world. Some people say that living in one place might bring a sense of comfort to people. However, living in one place can also cause people to feel isolated. Thus, I claim that people should often move from one place to another in order to improve their perspective about world. Take my case as an example; during my high school years, I participated in International Students Assembly and could share much time with foreign people. At first, I had difficulty in understanding their particular lifestyle such as eating dinner with hands, which made me to have little contact with foreigners. As time passed, I came to learn and understand about their life style, and thus could sometimes get to eat dinner with my hands. As my experience illustrates, if I had often moved from my hometown to another country, I could have understood a variety of foreigners’ peculiar lifestyle.
In addition, living from one place to another brings much happiness in our lives. In these days, many people are bound and driven by hectic schedules. The problem with this is that it is difficult for them to enjoy their life because they are often exhausted and stressed. In this sense, leading a new and fresh life in another place will increase our sense of happiness and excitement. According to a study conducted by Korean National Research Center, 71 percent of surveyed migrants in Korea answered that they lead a fresh and happiness life as they migrate from their hometown to Korea. In their hometown, they could have no choice but to meet the same people, have the same talk, and endure the same monotonous atmosphere. Based on the study, they are willing to open their heart to new place, given to socialize with new people and to partake in unexpected events. In this context, living in another place is able to make people to feel excited and happy.
In conclusion, I prefer to explore new places since living in new places helps people to enhance their viewpoint about the world, and makes to feel happy and excited. |
