Why do we cherish traditional customs and festivals less and less?

We don't cherish traditional customs and festivals. There are many external objective factors, which are not our own initiative:

First, many people go out to work now, saying it's the Spring Festival, but the annual leave is only one week, and they are delayed for two days on their way back and forth. When they are at home, time is not urgent. Besides, it's winter, the days are short and the nights are long, and it passes quickly.

Second, during the rush hour in Spring Festival travel rush, one ticket is hard to find. Even if I buy it, I don't go home at ordinary times. When you go home for the New Year, it is natural to bring all kinds of specialties to honor the elderly and give them to relatives and friends, so that parents can have face. But it's not easy to take things all the way to Wan Li Road. There are people everywhere. Carelessly carefully prepared gifts may be crushed, or simply lost, and people are tired.

Third, in the past, every family began to prepare for the New Year from an early age, and everything had to be prepared. Nowadays, Chinese New Year is all bought off-the-shelf, which has lost a lot of busy flavor. Even the wedding ceremony is reserved for dinner, because most people are at work on the 30 th, and they can't prepare at home, so they don't have any thoughts. When I was young, I looked forward to wearing new clothes. Now I buy it all year round, every year.

Fourth, the rural areas nowadays are usually empty cities. No one is at home all the year round, and the relatives who should go have faded, and some simply don't contact. Unlike when I was a child, I had many poor relatives, and I could return gifts on holidays. Now go home for the New Year, and have nothing to do. I can only stay at home all day and go to work after the Chinese New Year.

Fifth, neighbors are not as friendly as before. Talk about business, work, income, house, car and blind date when we meet. Meetings are nothing more than eating, drinking and having fun. It's superficial and impersonal. Before, we discussed whether your family bought new year's goods. Will you go tomorrow? Then several people made an appointment to drive a tricycle to the market to do new year's goods. It's too noisy.

Sixth, the real time to get home at home is only the time to sleep at night. During the day, I am basically busy with all kinds of entertainment, please eat or invite me to dinner, never leaving my hand, mouth and pocket, always wrapping red envelopes and giving gifts. After a busy day, I was very tired to go back to my family, but I had to be busy the next day. Holidays are more tiring than going to work, because social intercourse is only superficial and mostly hypocritical.

Seventh, I don't know what I am busy with every day. I eat, drink, and have fun everywhere, laughing and laughing, and I received mass blessing messages, then changed my name and sent them in groups. I went to other people's houses to watch the Spring Festival Gala, which became more and more boring. I feel cold and bored at eight or nine, so I go home to sleep.

Eighth, going home for the New Year is not a Chinese New Year, but a comparison with each other. Several people sit together, and everyone has a proud feeling. In the smoke, they said that business was not good this year, and they didn't earn much, just 350 thousand. While boasting about keeping up with the joneses and playing mahjong Pai Jiu, the gambling money is always tens of thousands. After a game, a dozen people drove to the town to eat, drink and have fun, and didn't come back until they were as drunk as a fiddler.

Of course, there are some key reasons that have not been mentioned, that is, some people neither earn much money nor get married. For such people, going home for the New Year will hurt more than 10,000 points. But I still hope everyone can go home and see their parents. I hope that everyone will not encounter the situation of wanting to support their loved ones, and do their filial piety while the elderly are still alive.
