地气 Down to earth

凡人的生活方式，要接近地气，才能心平气和。若太过好高骛远，往往会因为达不到预期的目的而失望。

好比每日的用餐，在邻里小贩中心进行，价廉物美，并不逊色与在餐馆用餐。

小贩中心又大多毗邻政府组屋，更加接近地气。

Hawker centre @ Circuit Rd

Unless one is very rich, one should live within our means. We should be down to earth. 

For instance, taking breakfast in hawker centre, traveling by public transport, buying sundry items from wholesale shops / economic shops is nothing to be ashamed of.
