It s the same Spring Festival, why is there such a big difference between now and when I was a child

When I was young, I looked forward to the annual Spring Festival, because there were firecrackers to set off during the festival, there were good things to eat, and what I couldn't eat in ordinary times could be eaten during the Spring Festival, so as a child, I would especially look forward to the Spring Festival. And you can also go out to pay New Year's greetings during the Spring Festival, and you can receive red envelopes.

When I grew up, I felt that the Spring Festival was a mental burden for me, because every time I had a festival, I felt that I was a year older. And every time I celebrate the Spring Festival, I have to give gifts to my family, which also adds a lot of financial burden to myself. If you have achievements in a year, it is good, if you don't make money, you feel that it is difficult to account for yourself.

When I was a child, I liked to celebrate the Spring Festival because I didn't need to make money to get something, and when I grew up, I celebrated the Spring Festival because if I didn't have the ability to make money, I felt that a lot of time was wasted in a year. That's why when I was a child, I had the same Spring Festival as when I grew up, but I felt different.

First of all, it is because we don't lack anything now, and unlike when we were children, we can only eat delicious food and buy new clothes to wear during the Spring Festival, and now I feel that we can buy new clothes to wear anytime and anywhere every day, and the aspect of eating is also to eat whatever we want, and we don't have to wait for specific festivals. <>

Secondly, as I grow older, I don't want to go to the Spring Festival more and more, because every Spring Festival is one step closer to getting old, and my parents are one step closer to getting old, I don't want to grow up by myself, I don't want my parents to grow old, I just want to go back to my childhood and be a child who doesn't understand anything. There is also the fact that our childhood friends are all different things, they have all gone their separate ways, or they have all married wives and children, married women, and they can't go back to the childhood when they ran and played together.

Finally, with the development of society and the rise of buildings, many children only study every day, do not play, and even no one plays with them, they can only laugh at themselves every day, no friends, how can they have the opportunity to meet new friends without leaving home every day, unlike when we were children, a group of children played together in a large courtyard, especially in the New Year, so lively, so happy.

As children we were pure pleasure seekers! When we grow up, we are busy with our families for a good Spring Festival.

When I was young, I finished the exam ten days before the Spring Festival, and I could play to my heart's content after the holiday. Earning money and preparing gifts for the New Year are all adult matters, and we don't need to worry about it.

When I was a child, I rarely got new clothes, but during the Chinese New Year, my parents could buy them not for themselves, but also for our children. So girls don't know how many times they have secretly looked at their new clothes before the arrival of Chinese New Year's Eve.

From the beginning of the first month, all the snacks will be taken out by the mother, saying that they are entertaining guests, but in fact, they are eaten by children, and the guests can't eat much.

The most important thing is that from the beginning of the first month, adults begin to pay New Year's money, which is the richest day of the year for children. Snacks that you don't usually see can be seen in these few days of the New Year, and you can eat enough while you have money in your pocket.

Now that I have grown up and have children, the Spring Festival is actually for the children. Inside and out, up and down have to be taken care of and cleaned up, until the Chinese New Year's Eve can be completely busy, I thought that the Spring Festival can have a good holiday, but I don't know what I am busy with, but I feel tired.

It is only when I have a reunion dinner with my family that I feel the meaning of the Spring Festival!

When I grow up, everything will change, and the standard of living has become better, and people have become cold and unfamiliar, and they used to be on the first day of the new year, and they would greet each other for the new year, but now for the New Year, some people will not return to their hometown from the city, and there are fewer and fewer people in their hometown.

I remember that in the previous Spring Festival, every family would change to a red couplet, and would set off firecrackers and hang red lanterns on that day, and at night, every family would be brightly lit, and the children of each family would run out, just like the discussion, go to the street to buy fireworks together, and the neighbors would also buy a lot of fireworks to put off, especially on the first day of the New Year, every family went to pay New Year's greetings, and I would hear the New Year's greetings of this aunt and uncle early in the morning, but last year, I saw that the uncle's house was closed in the past. Some can't come because of work, and some go directly to the city for the New Year, those who grew up together are small, working, getting married, and studying, each has their own busy, so the New Year's flavor is a lot less. <>

In fact, the New Year is because it has a New Year's flavor, lively, and unpopular New Year, of course, it is not interesting.

The older I get, the lighter the taste becomes, and I have a deep understanding of this. It's also the Spring Festival, but I always feel like I was happier when I was a child, why is there such a big difference between now and when I was a child?

When I was a child, my dad would always take my brother and me to a department store near my house the morning before Chinese New Year's Eve to buy all kinds of snacks we wanted to eat. On Chinese New Year's Eve, our family would have a reunion dinner at my house, and the grandparents and other elders would give us three juniors.

At noon, when the juniors have a reunion dinner, they should raise the wine glasses one by one and toast the elders. I used to be embarrassed to toast, and my parents urged the three of us cousins to toast one by one in order of size. By the way, every time before the reunion dinner, I would go downstairs with my dad to set off firecrackers, which heralded the arrival of the new year.

In the afternoon, I would go out with my brother to play with my friends, run and jump for an afternoon, and then go back to dinner in the evening and can't wait to go out and set off fireworks. We always build a fire with wood, and then put the sweet potatoes in the fire to roast, don't put fireworks and wait for the sweet potatoes to be baked, the New Year is so happy in childhood. <>

Now when we grow up, we won't be setting off fireworks, we won't have as many friends to play with as we did when we were kids, many people have moved, and we won't play together purely like when we were kids, everyone seems to be busy playing with mobile phones and computers. I think the smell of the New Year has been diluted by the increasing development of these electronic products.

When we were children, we didn't have the so-called worries, we just thought about the holidays quickly, and then went home during the Spring Festival, our parents were at home, we could have pocket money, and the children of the neighbors next door were also back, so we could play happily together.

Every year on the occasion of the Chinese New Year, parents will prepare a lot of New Year's goods, as well as a variety of snacks and fireworks, for us to play in the Chinese New Year's Eve, all because we are still young and do not understand too many things.

The older we get, the less the taste of the year, we are no longer like before, every time we look forward to going home, every time we look forward to being able to relax ourselves, and some of the entertainment of life has lost the taste of the past, all because we have grown up and have our own ideas.

The things of childhood have long been forgotten, and now they are very childish, and to be realistic, the only pleasure we can think of now is to make money, and money will fill our desires.

The feeling of the bulging wallet, never worry about buying items**, you can travel everywhere to see the environment of other places, so the year changes from person to person.

First of all, it may be that the Spring Festival has not changed from beginning to end, what has changed is only our own feelings, in other words, children and adults have different feelings about the Spring Festival. When we recall our past experiences, we always feel extremely good, just like using a beauty camera, automatically omitting those imperfections left in our memories.

The same is true for the Spring Festival. Everyone recalls the scene of the Spring Festival when they were children, and they always look forward to it. At that time, we always focused on the Spring Festival, which was naturally very beautiful, and those experiences were the best memories we left when we were growing up.

For us who have grown up, we have lost the innocence of childhood, and at the same time, we have been worn away by life, so we have long lost our sense of expectation for the Spring Festival, and naturally we have lost a lot of taste.

In addition, it is also possible that today's Spring Festival has really changed its taste. Although people's living standards have improved significantly, people have become more indifferent to each other, and they are not even able to walk the streets and alleys during the Spring Festival. When I was a child, although the living conditions were difficult, people were always happy during the Spring Festival.

It is said that the New Year does not have the feeling of being a child, the New Year's flavor does not seem to be as strong as before, and even the expectation of the New Year is not as strong as when I was a child, so every time the New Year comes, we often have a very ambivalent psychology, and often spend the Spring Festival in front of us with the memories of the past New Year's flavor.

In fact, as people grow, their mentality will also change, and it is no longer interesting to say that the New Year is also because the things that can bring us happiness during the New Year in the past are now gone, and the little remaining ones can no longer satisfy the heart when they grow up. When I was young, the delicious food that we could eat during the New Year was enough for us to drool for half a year, and now, when we go to the supermarket, we can buy everything back, and we need to wait until the New Year.

Moreover, with the development of society, the way of celebrating the New Year is no longer as single as before, in addition to rushing back to your hometown, you can also take a family to embark on a trip to a foreign country, feel a different Spring Festival, the way is different, and the feeling of nature is not the same.

The taste of the year is undeniable that I checked a lot, when I was a child, every time I came to the New Year, I would be elated, the children wore new clothes, played outside, our village, after Chinese New Year's Eve, the next day you looked, the waste paper of the firecrackers in the village was piled up underneath, and the red piece I remember vividly.

With the development of the times, our memories of the year have become more and more faint, and a variety of entertainment forms have long hit people's eyes, and various ideas and concepts are also colorful. We have lacked a sense of ritual for the New Year, and this lack of ritual has directly led to the indifference of our entire New Year culture.

We used to be in the early stage of the New Year, every household is lit up, killing pigs for the New Year, buying New Year's goods, the market is full of boarding, the crowds are going to buy things for the New Year, some families have traditional, but also to clean the court, worship the god of the stove, this I have seen.

My mom used to make incense and kowtow to pray for a safe and prosperous new year, but this ritual has stopped since a few years ago.

For the memories of the Spring Festival in my childhood, I remember a lot, and there are many interesting things that impress me, compared with the previous Spring Festival, the current Spring Festival, brings me completely different feelings, such as, the way of greeting the New Year, the taste of the year gradually fades, the continuous sound of firecrackers on the night of the Chinese New Year's Eve, and the smell of firecrackers that fill the nasal cavity. When I was a child, on the evening of the Chinese New Year's Eve, the family gathered in front of the TV, eating melon seeds and sugar, and watching the Spring Festival Gala. Every time it was twelve o'clock, with the countdown of the host on TV, firecrackers began to sound outside the window and lasted until half past twelve.

When I was a child, I was full of anticipation for the Spring Festival. Because, when the Chinese New Year is approaching,The family is always busy, preparing the food to be eaten for the Chinese New Year's Eve dinnerCroquettes, fried lotus tips, fried crispy meat, the aroma wafts through every corner of the room. Everyone is happy to get togetherSitting around the table, breading dumplings together, and wrapping a few coins in the dumplings, it is full of fun.

During the Spring Festival, the most anticipated thing is the morning of the first day of the new year. After waking up early in the morningChanged into new clothes bought in advance, looked new from head to toe, followed her parents, and came to grandma's and grandfather's house to pay New Year's greetingsSay a few auspicious words, and my grandparents will hand me a red envelope containing New Year's money. Then, eat with a large family, and after you are full, you can take the dozens of yuan sent by your parents and follow your friends to play on the street together.

With the passage of time, I am no longer the child who chased after my parents for New Year's money. Now the New Year's money,My parents won't take it away anymore under the pretext of helping me save it, and I can do it at my disposal. But I found that I could no longer find those friends who set off firecrackers together, and when I walked on the street, I could no longer hear the continuous sound of firecrackers.

In any case, the Spring Festival is an important day for family reunions, and no matter how the environment changes, the joyful atmosphere of the family cannot be changed. When the family gets together healthy and happy, and has a reunion dinner, it is the joyful scene of the Spring Festival that I am most looking forward to.

As time slowly passes, our memories increase, and it seems that there are a lot more memories of our childhood, and growing up does not seem to be what we imagined when we were children. The deepest impression is that every year during the Chinese New Year, I will remember the memories of the past, and today I want to talk about the Spring Festival of my childhood.

When I was a child, I was looking forward to the Chinese New Year, because I was at home during the New Year's holiday, and my parents would also go home for reunion.

There is a holiday around fifteen or sixteen in the lunar month, basically a few days before the holiday will go out with friends to play crazy for a few days, when I was a child, I don't know how to lie in bed, I don't think much of my home every day, I always want to play crazy outside, which is not the same as now.

On the twenty-third day of the lunar month, the small year sacrifice stove king in the north, on this day the family will buy some sugar melons, we have the saying of "twenty-three sugar melons sticky", we can have the remaining sugar melons to eat on this day, at that time I think the sugar melons are really good. Now I don't seem to like sugar melons very much, I think it's hard and sweet.

After the New Year, people who went out to work came home one after another, and every family had a feeling of joy, busyness, and the coming New Year. My parents usually come home at twenty-five, and they will bring a lot of good food and fun when they come home, and then they will take me to buy new clothes, and it will be fun to try on clothes at that time. Now that I'm the one who doesn't go home all year round and is expected to go home, I can buy clothes in my daily life, and I don't have the excitement of buying new clothes.

Chinese New Year's Eve, the family sits together for a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, before the meal I will go with my grandmother to burn incense and make offerings, when I was a child, I thought it was very fun, when I was a child, I felt that the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner was very rich, and I could eat a lot of things that I could not eat. Now the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner is also indispensable, but there is no desire to burn incense and not so much curiosity. Now that the standard of living has improved, it is also possible to eat whatever you want.

From the second to the fourth year of junior high school, I visited relatives and friends, and when I was a child, I thought it was great, I could eat a lot of delicious food, and I could also go to play. Now I feel that there are a lot of awkward conversations when visiting relatives and friends, especially when they ask me about my job, salary, and urging me to get married.
