Christmas eve

Hot 1697 views. 2014-12-25 14:20

Yesterday is Christmas eve, big event for nowadays young people. In my city, the government even block some main roads and forbid people from getting off of main subway stations to avoid accident. Time of the last subway train is also postponed to 1 o'clock. I find it pretty hilarious. How many of those celebrating Christmas are actually Christian? What's the meaning of non-Christians to follow the blind? These years our traditional holidays get much less attention than foreign ones. People, especially younger ones regard Spring Festival as boring, but are wild about holidays like Christmas. As these goes, decades later, when our parents are gone, who is there to inherit our tradition? On the bright side, perhaps people are just tired of everyday's routine work and look for a little fun in life. I hope we could bear in mind our 5000-year tradition, do not follow suit, make our life meaningful.

You sound a bit paranoid about the traditional festivals. The Chinese festivals  have lasted thousands of years and still going strong and active. It won't be forgotten. Each year there are several major festivals which are actively observed like the Spring Festival, Lantern Festival, Mid-Autumn, Qingming, Dragon Boat, Qixi, Chongyang etc etc. You must have seen all the young and old people all enjoying and celebrating these festivals. I myself as a foreigner also celebrate these Chinese festivals and all it's traditions.

Christmas is a worldwide event and celebrated in most countries. Young people are also celebrating for fun only.

Nothing to be too concerned about. Join the fun and be happy wherever you are.
