#Tribute to the Good Life #New Year, I used to be so yearning and looking forward to when I was a child (68 years of monkeys), I think many post-60s/70s who are about the same age as me will feel the same way.
That is, whenever I approached the end of the year, I broke my hands every day to look forward to the New Year, waiting for the New Year to have new clothes to wear, snacks to eat, and red envelopes to take, at that time, I thought of how much I looked forward to the New Year, how happy and luxurious it was.
To this day, I still clearly remember that one year Chinese New Year's Eve, my mother bought me a new set of clothes, saying that it was the first day of the first month of the month to wear, that night I was holding this new dress all night to sleep, excited all night did not sleep well, that happy! Really, it's still fresh in my memory, and it's still sweet...
For the relatively poor sixties and seventies, material scarcity, economic turmoil, usually want to eat an apple to eat a popsicle is a very rare thing, not to mention new clothes, usually wear brothers and sisters wear old and patched up clothes, only in the New Year there may be new clothes to wear, usually I dare not think, then I often think, as long as I eat and wear when I am not worried, this life will be satisfied.
A flick of the fingers, the blink of an eye decades have passed, and then look at today's life, compared to the past, it is simply heaven, our life has undergone earth-shaking changes, eat, wear, live, line without worry, no longer have to look forward to waiting until the New Year will have to eat to wear, now life every day like the New Year, usually the snacks and fruits at home continue, want to buy a dress or something, anytime, anywhere, whether in the physical store or online, want to buy fast and convenient, This is something I could not have dreamed of in the past, but it has really come true to our generation.
Looking at the bustling street market, the traffic is busy, the people are coming and going, the bustle is extraordinary, and everyone has a bright smile on their faces. The tall buildings are endless, the countryside is beautiful, the roads are spacious and clean, and the villas and new buildings are scattered, a thriving scene.
Looking back on the past and looking at the present, I am more looking forward to the future, and I sincerely sigh that as a Chinese, I am happy and proud! Born in Huaxia, this life is enough!
