▲ Does it happen to you that you look around the house thinking: "How on earth do I have so much stuff?"However, we hardly ever stop to think:Do we really need all the things we buy?Can we live with less? Well, some young adults do think about it and start to change the way they live—they are minimalists(极简主义者).Minimalists refer to people who choose to live comfortably with as few material things as possible.The point of Minimalism is not about having less stuff.It's more of a way to help people pay attention to the things with more values because they have less stuff to focus on.

When I was in middle school, I was bullied(被欺凌) a lot.There was one boy, let's call him C, who was the main person responsible.Every day for many years, he would say something bad to me and scare me with his words.It was a difficult time in my life, and I felt like there was no way running away from it.
Years passed, and I left school.I had no idea what happened to C, and I didn't care either.I just wanted to move on with my normal life and forgot about what happened.
One day, when I was 26 years old, I was walking to the supermarket.All of a sudden, I saw C. ▲ .I couldn't believe my eyes.He looked at me, trying to figure out.who I was.Then, he asked me if I was who he thought I was.I told him that I was exactly who he thought I was.
To my surprise, C apologized.It was the most honest and heartfelt apology I had ever heard.He didn't have to say anything.He could have just pretended not to notice me and walked away.But he stopped me and apologized.I could hear the shame in his voice for what he had done to me in the past.
At that moment, I forgave him right away.All the hatred(憎恨) and anger I had carried for years was gone in a second.It was a completely unexpected and life-changing moment for me.That experience gave me hope in the goodness of people and made the rest of my day truly amazing.
In Western countries, people often greet each other by saying"How are you?", while Chinese people might ask each other "Did you eat?"instead.Eating has long been a big part of China and its food culture has attracted many people from other countries, including Sarah from Madagascar.
When Sarah was little, her family often went to Chinese restaurants on weekends, which sparked her love for Chinese food.In 2010, the then-20-year-old studied in China.Since then, she has tasted many more different foods and drinks from different places in the country like hot dry noodles in Hubei and morning tea in Guangdong.
Apart from these delicious foods, what impressed Sarah most however was the culture behind them.
Take Sichuan food as an example.Since the province sits in a basin(盆地), Sichuan is quite humid.To get the dampness(湿气) out of the body, the people there prefer spicy food.Similarly, Yangzhou, which sits on the north bank of the Yangtze River, is "a land of fish and rice".Huaiyangcai, typical in Yangzhou, matches the personality of the land —fresh, balanced and tolerant(宽容的).While in Guangdong, morning tea is not only about snacks, but also about the pleasant time that we share with our friends and family.
"Traditional Chinese philosophy(哲学) has gone into every side of Chinese food culture, " said Sarah. "And this philosophical thinking also suggests that people's diet should fit in with the natural environment in which they live."
