Three thoughts and experiences of Chinese New Year.

# Experience # Introduction Off-year does not refer to a certain festival. Due to local customs, festivals called off-year are different. During the off-year period, the main folk activities include posting Spring Festival couplets, sweeping dust and offering sacrifices to stoves. The following are three ideas and experiences carefully arranged for everyone. Welcome to reading.

New year's thoughts and experiences.

With the coming of spring, China people are most willing to celebrate the New Year, and they are also most willing to bid farewell to the old year, welcome the new year and move towards the future in this traditional and modern way. It is everyone's pursuit and effort to seek health and well-being, and look forward to a good weather and a good life. This is the charm of Chinese New Year culture. We have been reluctant to give up for generations and have continuously created a splendid Chinese civilization, which is enjoyed by all mankind. So far, many parts of the world are also celebrating the New Year and entertaining with China people. Compared with Christmas in the west, the Spring Festival in China is more unique. From the similarities and differences, the sense of difference may be more obvious. It is a fact that Christmas and Spring Festival cannot be mentioned in the same breath. As classic products of different nationalities and cultures, Christmas and Spring Festival are symbols of human civilization, and their cultural connotations are also very rich. One is the etiquette culture of Christianity, the other is the folk tradition of the East for thousands of years, the other is the western festival and the other is the eastern festival. These two different festivals are loved by people. With the promotion of mutual learning of civilizations and cultural integration, the atmosphere of celebrating Christmas and Spring Festival between the East and the West is taking shape, and the trend of deepening and sublimation is unstoppable.

I don't want to say important is not important. I just want to show that China people pay more attention to the Spring Festival than westerners to celebrate Christmas. Moreover, it takes a long time to prepare the new year's goods. The folk catchword "The first month is February, and Wan Li goes to March" is enough to witness. However, in the new era, China people who are chasing dreams and running are no longer obsessed with this attitude of celebrating the New Year. They should seize the day, live up to their youth, follow the footsteps of spring, continue to struggle and reap the fruits of labor, and still have the spirit of seizing the time and working hard after the New Year. Because a day's plan lies in the morning and a year's plan lies in the spring, and struggle and progress cannot be delayed. Time is hope, that is, "money", which cannot be delayed.

In fact, people in China not only have a reunion dinner on Lunar New Year's Eve, but also happily knock on the door on the first day of the first lunar month, accompanied by the warming of the off-year complex. It is better to say that the arrival of the new year is the beginning of the new year. The Spring Festival, a traditional festival in China, is being extended from the early years. After the off-year holiday, the whole country is busy with the Year of China, and only the Spring Festival has seven long holidays. This is incomparable to Christmas in the west. Whether it is the length of time, the content of activities, cultural customs, or happiness, etc. Among the festivals in the world, the Spring Festival is the most special.

Today is the 23rd day of the twelfth month of the Year of the Pig, which is a folk festival that China people attach importance to. On this day, almost the whole family went out to clean the hall, clean the courtyard, wash and rinse, paste walls and scaffolding, paste couplets, decorate lanterns, prepare enough new year's goods, bid farewell to the old and welcome the new year, and embrace the annual Spring Festival with joy. The prologue of the New Year was officially opened, and the culture of the New Year was also influenced by it. What people call "Nian culture", "Nian custom" and "Nian flavor" began to appear on the day of off-year. In fact, off-year has a long history and customs continue. For example, in ancient times, there was a tradition of "three officials, three people, four ships and five" in the early years.

When the ancients "counted" off-year, they emphasized that the society at that time was divided into three classes, and the off-year was different and out of sync. This "official" approach is obviously putting the cart before the horse. This is a system that we can't accept today, because it loses the equality and justice of festivals and the hard core of people-oriented festivals. However, the level of civilization in that era was low, and it is not objective enough to measure it with our current eyes. The problem is that "officials, three people, four ships and five" laid the foundation for today's off-year and its significance can not be ignored. The official's off-year is the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month, the ordinary people's off-year is the 24th of the twelfth lunar month, and the houseboat's off-year is the 25th of the twelfth lunar month. The unreasonable system makes today's off-year not limited to the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month.

However, the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month is recognized as a small year, and most people converge. No matter which day is off-year, the arrival of off-year is regarded by China people as the beginning of a new year, which is a custom. On the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month, the kitchen god reported to the Jade Emperor the good and evil behaviors of people in this year. According to the report of Kitchen God, the Jade Emperor decided to reward the good and punish the evil to restrain human behavior. This is of course an ancient legend, but it sounds ridiculous now. However, when we sent the Kitchen God to heaven with piety, we entrusted him with "God speaks well and the lower bound is safe". There are also some advantages, such as good deeds are rewarded with good deeds, but idealism is too strong. Upward goodness begins with achievement and ends with action. This is the basic requirement for us to do.

Feelings and experiences of the second year of the new year

Although it is called "off-year", it means a lot. We can appreciate the "great beauty" of China culture from the "off-year". Small year hides great beauty, happiness welcomes the new year! The days in the north and south are different and lively. Tolerance is great and the soul is beautiful. In ancient times, there was a saying that "officials, three people, four ships and five people". It is reported that in the middle and late Qing Dynasty, the emperor worshipped the kitchen god on the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month one day in advance, and people in the northern region followed suit and became a habit, while in the southern region, the 24th of the twelfth lunar month was mostly designated as a small year. Of course, it may also be related to many factors such as calendars and regional differences in customs implemented in different dynasties in ancient times. No matter what, it's all for off-year, and the soul is the same. This difference just reflects the agility, tolerance and beauty of China culture.

Rich in content and culture. Off-year is a festival with wonderful contents, which shows the richness, profoundness and profoundness of China culture. From the middle and late Qing Dynasty, the royal family held a ceremony to worship heaven on the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month. In order to "save money", the kitchen god was also sacrificed, which was to save the beauty of culture. Sacrifice the stove, "Twenty-three, honeydew melon sticks", people will buy honeydew melon, Guandong sugar, sesame sugar and other sacrifices during the off-year period, praying that the kitchen god will be sweeter and say good things from heaven, which is the beauty of people's expectation for a better life; Yu Qian wrote in the slogan of "Twenty-four Nights of the twelfth lunar month" that "golden stoves and silver candles give birth to spring at night, and firecrackers make the climate new. Laugh at yourself for being vulgar in middle age and buy shredded paper to worship the kitchen god. " Sacrificing a stove is the beauty that people long for a better life. In some places, sticky cakes are steamed and eaten on the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month, which means "high every year". In Fuzhou, sugar cane is a necessary food to worship the kitchen god, which means "increasing day by day" and is the beauty of people's dream of a better life. "Colorful style, profound culture, rich flavor of the year, the beauty, simplicity, hopes and dreams of off-year.

Clean and orderly welcome the new year. With the arrival of the new year, the flavor of the country, cities, red lanterns, red couplets and new year's goods is getting stronger and stronger. "Twenty-three honeydew melon sticks and twenty-four house sweeps" are called "Spring Festival" or "Dust Sweeping Day" by China folks from 24th to New Year's Eve. "Dust removal" means year-end cleaning. Be willing to do cleaning, cleaning and welcome the new year. Sweep away the dust, bid farewell to the old and welcome the new, orderly and methodical. Welcome the New Year and celebrate the Spring Festival. The beauty of health and order of China culture stands proudly.

Feelings and experiences of the third year's New Year

Every year before the Spring Festival, we will have a small year first. Although the off-year is not as festive and lively as the Chinese New Year, it is also a festive festival. During the Chinese New Year in my home, my family will wrap all kinds of stuffed jiaozi the night before and wait for jiaozi on behalf of family reunion the next day.

Early in the morning, grandpa got up at dawn. Grandpa went into the kitchen at home and got busy in the kitchen early. Jiaozi's ingredients are put on the table one by one in Grandpa's busy work, and jiaozi in the steamer is fat in the dense fog, which looks very attractive.

When the family got up one after another, Grandpa put jiaozi, who was kept warm in the steamer, on the table. Although jiaozi is the staple food for breakfast in Lunar New Year, Grandpa made many kinds of jiaozi, including steamed dumplings, fried dumplings and dumplings, which are my favorite. Grandpa's cooking is unique. Jiaozi, which has different practices, has its own flavor, which is very attractive.

After getting up, you can have a delicious breakfast after washing, which is really a happy thing. Although most of the holidays are like this every year, it brings me different feelings every year.

Because every year goes by, I am growing. I remember that every year during the Spring Festival, I have to ask my family to wake me up, otherwise I can stay in bed for half a morning. But year after year, I get up regularly and on time every day. Just like this year's off-year holiday, I got up soon after my grandfather got up. It is worth mentioning that this year's breakfast is partly due to my credit.

Well, at this time, the whole family is sitting together, and everyone has their own favorite flavor of jiaozi. Steamed dumplings are placed in front of my sister, steamed dumplings are placed in front of my parents, and jiaozi is placed in front of my grandfather and me. "Happy New Year!" I said happily to my family, and then my family started the day of this year's primary school in a warm atmosphere.
