Proceed with festival
Hot 3 |
The holiday of Spring Festival now comes to the end. Tomorrow most guys will go back to work, and I will go back to my office the day after tomorrow. Whoa, what a long holiday I have been enjoying with family. Because of work, people are not always available staying home. Therefore, I value the time accompanying with them.
Time flies. In another week, the Laten Festival is gonna be coming. Then, according to the traditional customs, the spring festival is really to end up. And most migrant workers will flock into cities again and march into the journey with their hope of earning a better future by struggling in cities. Everyone also goes on with their dreams and hopes in the new year. Not bad, as long as we got the plan. At the end of holiday, people are gradually going back, buses, cars and some other vehicles are stuck at high expresses.
Since this special time, the streets are still empty here. A friend from Beijing just told me of the misery of finding a barber nearby his living community. He said: "Thank godness! Supermakets and some other malls now are still open for sale. Otherwise, I am gonna suffer starvation." I told him he should have stocked up some food in advance. And I had already noticed to hardship seeking for haircut, thus, I had haircut one week ago before the arrival of Spring Festival.
The weather forecast says tomorrow the temperature is going down again, and next week some palces might have fleet. It goes to be cold. Fortunately, the entire holiday is warm with sufficient sunshine. I am lucky enough with most ones. I stripped off thick clothes and wore my T-shirt in those afternoons when I jogged and walked around. Fantastic. Anyway the winter is gone, therefore, it is nothing to be bothered with the temperature reduction. Sooner or later, it goes back to be warm again.
I am little bit missing the moment of booming flowers. Every year when spring comes, the climate changes to be warm and mild. Tulips, peach flowers will blossom, and tourists are stopped under sakuras. As if everything is dancing with flowers. The domination of waves from ocean flowers, the warmth sunshine and gentle wind, the vibrant grasses and tresses, all are put together to be the colorful world of SPRING.
When I walk alongside the bank of the Lake, soft branches of willows stretch out down to ground. Buds are then coming out to be lovely green leaves. For a while, the drizzle silently lands on shoulders and wets surface of the path. In that moment, people are easily going to feel sleepy in daytime because of the cozy weather. If possible, on weekends, sit around in a coffee hourse, or choose to a tea house nearby waters, close eyes for minutes, smell the fragrance of flowers and soil in the air, would be totally joyful.
Everything grows. As in the growth of the everyone with the wish of becoming better.

- Yes, I like being positive. I choose to smile. Everyday we have to do so many things to do. We might feel boring and tired. If we do not choose positive manner to do what we want, we are likely to lose interests doing anything.

I think the best and effective way to life is to smile. A smile from inner mind is really wonderful which shows the confidence to cope with anything.
Sometimes we also meet something unhappy. I choose to go somewhere, hiking, or walking around. After work, job around, after that, I feel good after bathing.
Everyone of us should be positive. That is the way helps us to be more active and enthusiastic.
Wish you the best in the new year.

- Why would you say that? He is an intelligent, simple, positive and hard working person. He knows how to enjoy life in simplicity. He does not chase unrealistic dreams but yet he seeks progress and improvisation of his life. I like his lifestyle.

- You have described the scene and anticipation correctly. That is what it is. The only difference is that in my city, we have only 4 days holidays and most business and shops have opened on the 3rd and 4th day of the New Year.
The streets and roads were so quiet during the last few days that I hardly recognize my district. It was dark and quiet, whereas, during normal days, there are lots of bright glaring light, neon signs, luxury cars, VIPs, tourists and frenzy activities. All these activities resumed today in full.
Everyone would be resuming work tomorrow, but there won't much work because other establishments have not yet resumed work and full working pace would come around the 15th day of the Lunar calendar.
The news predicted that this is going to be a difficult year for the economy and businesses would likely face trouble. I am a bit worried as I have observed that there are signs of trouble now already. Just hope things won't be too bad.
We have a custom of visiting the local ancient temple to make offerings to the almighty. I have been doing this for the past years so I went with a few friends. There were lots of people there with intense smoke from the burning incense. It is said that this temple is effective for wishes of marriage for girls and a lot of girls returned for thanksgiving after marriage. We can make three wishes, so I did that with my offerings of incense.
After that we went to a French restaurant for lunch but was disappointed. They gave us each a tiny piece of meat with some decorations and called it a set lunch. The price was high too. Still feeling hungry, we went to a Tea house with restaurant. Lots of good things to eat there. What a contrast it was with last year. Last year I went into a fancy Korean Restaurant which gave me a huge bowl of Korean noodle with lots of things in there, which even two person can't consume. I was shocked when the bill came. Rmb 80 for a bowl of noodle? Daylight robbery.
Overall it was quite a pleasant holiday. Although there are some uncertainty ahead of us, I think we would have to face it bravely. I have always been taught that there are never ending challenges in our daily life, so we should always face problems positively.

The performance of economy we have talked and discussed somehow. It does add the uncertainty of future. We do not know what will happen and what we will encounter.
My best wishes to you.

- That is quite a close assessment of him. He may be a bit conservative in your view. Perhaps, I like his simplicity because of the fact that I had a complicated, burdensome and cumbersome type of life before, so a simple lifestyle like his is enviable.
ada23: he is a rational man, has his own way of thinking about people and things.
