I Am From a Small Town

I am from a small town By Jing(Heidi)Wu I am from a small town, I am a small-town girl, Even if you use the largest map of China, You are also hard to find, The train station is called "Dami xi Railway Station", In ancient legends, There is a small cave where rice flows out every day, However, greedy people are digging holes every day, Finally, one day until the small cave became a big cave, People found that the cave no longer flows out of rice, Only the quiet stream flows from the cave. I am from a small town, I am a small-town girl, The town has no trains, no cars, no subways, Only the ferry is available for residents to travel on the water, Even if the town does not have modern facilities, However, people who love beauty use plants to decorate their lives, Finally, one day until the town becomes a beautiful sea of ??flowers, People find that life no longer needs material abundance, All it takes is the abundance of the spiritual world. I am from a small town, I am a small-town girl, The town is a Utopia, The small town has no complicated interpersonal relationships, Some only have unity and friendship, I am from a small town, I am a small-town girl, I have never been ashamed of my birth, I like to appreciate this vast world from the perspective of a small-town girl.

Hi! I've both been a small town girl and a big city girl. I'm not ashamed of either. I'm not a small town girl anymore. There are pros and cons to both. But I did want to move on from a village I went to high school in. I have good memories from there though. Good a ND bad
