Peaceful Retirement

I dream of peaceful retirement such as this;

maybe you also have this dream:


"Living in retirement beyond the World,
Silently enjoying isolation,
...I pull the rope of my door tighter
And stuff my window with roots and ferns.

My spirit is tuned to the Spring-season:
At the fall of the year there is autumn in my heart.
Thus imitating cosmic changes

My cottage becomes a Universe.
By Lu Yiin [fourth century A. D.]
