What about Tomb-Sweeping Day's birthday?

The annual Tomb-Sweeping Day is a festival for missing relatives, remembering martyrs, sweeping graves and offering sacrifices to ancestors. The sacrificial ceremony is for Zhuang Jing, and everyone will feel sad. A well-known poem wrote: "It rains in succession during the Qingming Festival, and pedestrians on the road want to die", which not only explains the climate in Tomb-Sweeping Day, but also expresses the tears of people who miss it. Birthday is an important day for yourself every year, once a year. Many times, when Tomb-Sweeping Day and his birthday meet on two completely opposite days, a large group of friends and family will be invited to get together to celebrate. Is your birthday in Tomb-Sweeping Day?

Besides the memorial ceremony, there are other activities in Tomb-Sweeping Day, such as cuju, outing and planting willows. There are also playful laughter. It can be said that this festival is a unique day. If the birthday is in Tomb-Sweeping Day, most people think that the birthday must be celebrated, separated from Tomb-Sweeping Day, or advanced or postponed. But it still depends on the local customs. After all, some places have to sweep graves before Qingming Festival, and birthdays can only be advanced, not postponed. If this happens, we can advance it by half a month or a week. Meeting Tomb-Sweeping Day on my birthday also means a new life. Say goodbye to things you regret and say happy birthday to yourself. So don't be superstitious, birthdays are also memorable days.

With the continuous development of society, the previous customs and habits are constantly changing, but no matter how they change, they should be based on deepening the internal essence of traditional culture and carrying forward and inheriting national culture.
