Sometimes I imagine a different life. If I lived in the countryside, I would enjoy the fresh air and the quiet. If I had a small farm, I would keep animals and grow vegetables. I would invite my friends to visit, and we would eat healthy food together. If the weather were nice, we would walk in the fields. If it rained, we would stay inside and play games.
