The "New Year's flavor" of the Spring Festival is getting weaker and weaker, why is this? Do you like "Nian Wei'er"?
Now there are too many old customs abandoned in the New Year, such as steaming rice cakes, offerings to the god of stoves, etc., in previous years, firecrackers were banned, and there was no New Year's atmosphere, and many old customs have their own beautiful stories.
What's the taste of the year in your heart?
I think that Nian Wei'er is the family getting together, eating Chinese New Year's Eve rice to tell the experience of this year, nian wei'er is the taste of family affection in the end.
Mellow New Year's flavor
Many people say that the taste of the year is faded. Think of the past, home paste couplets, set off firecrackers, lights up, lively. The smell of sumptuous food, the red debris of firecrackers exploding in the corner of the roadside, and the smell of gunpowder floating in the air, will not disperse after the festival, haunting our memories. And now, although the word "Fu" on the street is posted, and the red lanterns in front of the door are hung, people always feel that the current Spring Festival is not as lively as in the past, especially people in the city, who are even more indifferent to the Spring Festival. Some people have the impression of enshi city's New Year's Eve: shops are closed, there is no place too soon, the streets are wider, and the population has evaporated. Some people even expressed their feelings directly: "The New Year is not interesting." Folklorists even appealed: "Defend the Spring Festival." ”
Another person said that during the Spring Festival, do we need to "defend"? Nostalgia for the Spring Festival of the old days is actually nostalgia for the poverty and hardship days that have passed away, and nostalgia for the most beautiful dream that the whole family has dreamed of together. Today, dreams have become reality. The world is complicated, desires are born, the Spring Festival, fade away. We have Christmas, Valentine's Day... This and that verse, as long as there is liveliness.
I do agree with a point of view: the reincarnation of the sun and the moon, the change of the dynasty system, and the annual taste of the Spring Festival customs have not changed at all, and it has always been as mellow as ever.
We often see this sentence: "Spring Festival, go home!" "Four words, interpreting the essential meaning of the Spring Festival." At the end of the year, our tense nerves should also rest, and the affection should also be picked up, then, go home, home is the best haven, home is the warmest place of recuperation. Lively, can not represent the whole of the Spring Festival culture, but more can express the deep meaning of the Spring Festival and the pursuit of the word "warm". This spiritual core of Spring Festival culture will never change.
Then, around the "warmth", we will measure the taste of the Spring Festival, and we will have a much calmer mentality. The custom of the Spring Festival is only an external form. Society is constantly changing, our hearts, our perceived tentacles are constantly changing, the yardstick of happiness in the depths of our hearts is constantly changing... The form follows the content, the Spring Festival should also keep pace with the times, only the unchanged Spring Festival form is backward.
In fact, we see that the Spring Festival culture keeps pace with the times. On the one hand, in addition to the desire to welcome the old and the new, the desire for family reunion, and the Chinese New Year's Eve complex of the Chinese New Year's Eve, all of these represent the core of the Spring Festival culture, as always, and even stronger than ever. The blood of the Spring Festival has been completely integrated into our body cells. Even if you cross the Pacific Ocean, even if you change your nationality, you will not forget the warmth of the Spring Festival. On the other hand, the Spring Festival culture conforms to the requirements of the times, and the cumbersome procedures and details in some traditional folklore are gradually simplifying and disappearing, and updated things are enriched, such as SMS New Year's Greetings and Spring Festival tourism.
The taste of the Spring Festival is changing, indicating that the times are changing, and the Spring Festival is advancing with the wheels of the times, but this pure and thick annual taste has not changed! We don't have to demand that the Spring Festival culture is as old as antiques, the more valuable it is, and we don't have to expect the Spring Festival to lead the world trend. It's a purely practical festival, so let's make its culture pure. Just like our daily sleep, the hibernation of animals, is what the body needs, go with the flow. Taking the warmth of the soul as the starting point, sleeping with your head covered, sitting around the stove and sniffing melon seeds, reading a book all night... Let the Spring Festival become people's hibernation throughout the year, and after recuperating, devote themselves to the next year's struggle with more vigor.
