Why do city dwellers yearn for an idyllic lifestyle?

People tend to rush to the idyllic "recluse" life, in the city's steel forest, we seem to find it difficult to find a real support, more for the sake of living and living. Return to the countryside, return to the natural and simple way of life, has become our heart's desire. There are several reasons for this phenomenon:

First, it is the avoidance of hostility in real life.

In the modern society where everything must be said to be commercial, and favors look at the value of utilization, the desire for money makes people have an illusion: before doing anything first measure whether this thing can bring benefits to themselves or how much benefits to bring. Loved ones and friends for the sake of monetary benefits turn their backs on each other abound, a person's family status, social status, the recognition of others, are measured in money. "Poor in the city no one asked, rich in the mountains have distant relatives" is the most real, but also the most helpless portrayal. In this way, people are impatient. The consequence of this impatience is endless anxiety.

We want to control our emotions and avoid this hostility. How to do it? The first thing that comes to mind is to return to the idyll. Perhaps, the reality of the idyllic life is not the way we imagine, but in everyone's heart, there is an idyllic place of their own: where the scenery is picturesque, where life is simple, where neighbors are harmonious, and where people are kind.

Secondly, the inertia of traditional consciousness makes it so.

China has been a predominantly agrarian society for thousands of years, and it has not been long since it transformed itself from an agrarian to an industrial society. There is a saying that "five generations up, who are all farmers", especially in the 1950s and 1960s, the parents and grandparents of the generation, the rural areas are extremely deep feelings. The famous Ming Dynasty writer Tang Bohu has a poem "Peach Blossom Nunnery Song" cloud: Peach Blossom Dock Peach Blossom Nunnery, Peach Blossom Nunnery Peach Blossom Immortal.
