How to Treat China's Traditional Festival Composition

At present, the relatively open international environment makes various regional cultures meet and merge, and more and more people in China celebrate various foreign festivals, which makes the traditional festivals in China gradually ignored. Today, it is our mission to protect the traditional culture of China. China's traditions and civilization need to be passed down. These traditional festivals are the product of the survival and development of the Chinese nation for thousands of years. China people now and China people in the future will lose their own characteristics if they can't understand their ancestors and national development and despise these traditions and civilizations. The close relationship between the traditional festivals in China and the character formed by the Chinese nation for thousands of years also keeps the traditional festivals in China from being westernized. Mid-Autumn Festival entrusted the wanderer with homesickness; The Dragon Boat Festival shows the joy of working people in farming for a bumper harvest. Tomb-Sweeping Day expressed his relatives' grief for the deceased; The New Year embodies people's simple desire for a peaceful and happy life. The meaning behind these festivals is irreplaceable by any foreign festivals. Therefore, more and more people began to advocate the protection of traditional festivals in China. Tomb-Sweeping Day and Dragon Boat Festival never have a holiday, but it has become a day off. The TV media has also increased the publicity of China's traditional culture to improve people's understanding and attention. In this 2 1 century, which is strongly impacted by foreign cultures, we pay too much attention to the pumpkins of Halloween in the west. Roses for Valentine's Day; The old man with white beard at Christmas. Thus ignoring the word "Fu" in the New Year, wormwood in the Dragon Boat Festival and moon cakes in the Mid-Autumn Festival, which is a loss of local culture for each of us in China. Without these cultures and traditions, we will also lose our beliefs and characteristics. In today's society, we still have to understand the truth that we don't worship foreign things and flatter foreign countries. Foreign traditions and characteristics are often not suitable for China with a long history. Just as constitutional monarchy does not apply to China; Knife and fork cannot be the main tool for China people to eat; Just as the direct way of speaking can't change the tactfulness of China people, foreign festivals should not become festivals of China people. The traditional festivals of a nation are formed by the long-term accumulation and condensation of history and culture for thousands of years, and then summarized and practiced by later generations. From all kinds of festival customs, future generations can clearly experience the historical and cultural picture of ancestors' life. When festivals carrying traditional national culture are no longer taken seriously, the cultural connotation of festivals is gradually forgotten, and China's reputation as an "ancient civilization" will cease to exist. We need to strengthen the publicity and promotion of traditional festivals, and start from ourselves to protect the traditional culture of China.
