Some people, after half a lifetime, have not yet figured out what a year is.
The year is the carrier of national cultural inheritance.
Today is the third day of the Chinese New Year in the Year of the Tiger, and our year today is the inheritance of Han culture? Or is it the inheritance of Manchu culture?
What year did the "migratory birds" who abandoned the north and move south spent in Hainan?
Is nian, a monster that has been legendary for a thousand years?
In the minds of many people, the year is: pasting the Spring Festival, wearing new clothes, setting off firecrackers, stringing relatives...
Nowadays, air pollution control measures prohibit the firing of firecrackers in the form of legislation; the prevention and control measures of the new crown epidemic are prohibited from stringing relatives in the form of regulations; the improvement of the level of national economic development, wearing new clothes is no longer a "year" must... Only the Spring Festival, such a year, is there still a new year?
In this way, many people complain: today's year has no new year's taste! The only thing that smells of the year is CCTV's Spring Festival Gala.
In fact, the year is a unique cultural feature of The Chinese agricultural society. In post-industrialized China, it is a normal phenomenon to be different from the past. In today's epoch-making industrialization and urbanization, the "taste of the year" of the past can only be an aftertaste.
How to put today's year, live the taste of the past... Impossible.
All we have to do is to keep up with the development of the times, keep pace with the times, engrave the "year" in the depths of our hearts, record it in books and CDs, and find a happier and happier way to celebrate the New Year.
Otherwise, lingering in the memory of the past, remembering the time of childhood, years, is not good.
