A hostess aunt was accused by a student of giving candy on Thanksgiving.

I think the student's intentions were fine, but so was the hostel aunt's, it's just that someone got on the bandwagon... Thanksgiving expresses gratitude, and there are similar gestures in China... First of all, the hostel aunt used his own money to buy the chocolates... We believe that the original intention was not to celebrate a foreign holiday, but rather to take such a step to stay close to the students and hopefully to be more friendly with the apartment The children in the apartment are more friendly and hence he caters to our youngsters to celebrate the festivals.

Most people who celebrate holidays in their lives don't know the origins of the holiday

They just look at things like ? Thanksgiving? and ? peace? good words like ? and wishing for happy good luck. In Chinese, it's just joining in and having fun, and they may not understand the context of the holiday, but vaguely understand what it means, and the hostesses are actually coming from a very positive place, but that happens to be ? Thanksgiving? s time to touch some people's sensitivities, and you can remind, but you can't threaten to do so with ? Sincerity? to treat each other, which is not in line with the thinking of today's students.

We can't ignore the good intentions of the hostel aunts and only see the spread of religion

This day is just an opportunity to express love, and the gift is just a formality, the hostel aunts really want to express how they feel about their work, our ancestors taught us to accept foreign things with a tolerant mindset, so the unique inclusiveness of Chinese culture makes it possible for this kind of cultural spirit, which permeates the Chinese people's bones so that this cultural spirit that permeates the bones of the Chinese people can persist in any environment, and even in turn absorb foreign things into a part of itself, but can further develop and enrich itself.

The student could have explained to his aunt in a gentle manner, or not been allowed to promote Thanksgiving in school for other similar reasons. Adults have a basic decency not to threaten to report, this approach is completely impersonal, thousands of years of Chinese culture cannot be shaken by foreign holidays, traditional holidays are still the mainstream of the culture and foreign holidays are just dessert after dinner, those who yell ? Celebrating foreign festivals is a reflection of worshipping foreign countries? Those who shout "celebrating foreign festivals is a reflection of worshipping foreign countries?" are too unsure of themselves, celebrating foreign festivals does not mean unpatriotic.
