Korean people are famous for 'fast and fast'. They tend do finish their works as fast as possible. Korea industrialized its economy and adopted democracy during 50 years, which was a rapid reform. However, Korean people could not say they are living happier lives than the past. This is because they neglected important values of life. Thus, I believe it is preferable for people to live at a slower pace since they could live better lives and keep crucial values of life.
When people do works or live their lives at a slower pace, they could have more chances to enjoy their lives. There are a lot of exciting and unrevealed parts of world. If people take a time to look, hear and watch their environments, they could easily find pleasure and happiness. For example, in my case, I usually spend most of my time on studying because I'm preparing for a university entrance test. I used to rush to do my works. However, once, I was very depressed so I just lay down on my garden. At that time, I saw a tiny plant growing in the soil during fall. Even though it looked fragile, it steadily started to grow. Day after day, I always enjoyed watching it. It was one source of happiness. In fact, by watching it, I could gain power and energy since it survived despite harsh conditions. Therefore, it is better for people to take time to live their lives.
Moreover, they will not ignore vital values of life. When people live their lives fast, they might neglect important things such as friend ship, love and so on. They might hurt feelings of friends and family without any notice. They might not realize one man or woman really loves them. They might always think of their own sake rather than considering others who are close to them. However, when people use their time more to other people, they could maintain good friend ship. Also, they will not only have time to love someone, but they will also have chances to think more about others. Thus, it is actually necessary for people to live their lives slowly for their own happiness.
In conclusion, when it comes to better life and important values of life, it is preferable for them to live at a slower pace. The more time people use for themselves, the happier lives they will have. |
