How to play with yourself after listening to lectures and retiring?

I listened to teacher Long Xiangqun's lecture "Photography and Calligraphy-My Retirement Life" in the Yangtze River Forum at the weekend. The teacher told me how he devoted himself to studying and practicing unfamiliar photography and calligraphy after retirement, and gained the experience recognized by experts, which has enlightenment and reference significance for all retirees.

Mr. Long Yuqun was the editor of Hunan Education Publishing House when he was in office. He has been playing with others and achieving other people's works. When he was about to retire, he found that he left nothing behind and was once very confused. I began to think about how to play with myself after retirement. As a result, I chose to study photography, a major I didn't know, and bought my own textbooks for self-study. Ten years have passed, and he has combined his philosophy major with photography skills, and created many photographic works with unique perspectives and profound meanings.

Art is always interlinked. After two years of studying photography, the teacher began to learn calligraphy again. Eight years later, the teacher's calligraphy is also very good, strong and won the praise of experts.

Of course, teachers have a high starting point and great achievements. Most of us ordinary people don't have to reach such a high level, but his attitude towards retirement, his enthusiasm for learning new knowledge and his spirit of improving the quality of life are still worth learning and learning from our retirees.

After listening to the teacher's lecture, I have three experiences:

First, choose a hobby that suits you, devote yourself to study and research, and enjoy yourself to the fullest, even if you are not careful.

2. Be confident in learning new knowledge. It's never too late. You don't need to learn from a teacher. You can do it by yourself.

Third, it mainly focuses on the pursuit of beauty and free lifestyle, and expresses the truest and strongest feelings in works, which must be unique.
