The flavor is getting stronger in 2024
Whenever the Spring Festival is approaching, a warm current swells in my heart. It was a call to home, a desire for reunion. It was as if the birds were returning to their nests and the leaves were returning to their roots, and I seemed to hear the call of my hometown: "Child, go home for the New Year!" ”
I still remember when I was a child, although my family was not rich, every Spring Festival was the happiest moment for our children. Grandparents are busy in advance, and the kitchen is filled with the aroma of various delicacies. Mom was busy cleaning the house, while Dad was lighting up the house to add a festive atmosphere to the Spring Festival. My siblings and I were excitedly discussing our plans for the New Year, looking forward to that day.
As time went on, I moved further and further away from home to pursue my dreams. But every Spring Festival, that homesickness becomes more and more intense. Whenever I see the crowds of people at the train station and airport, I know that there are countless people like me, who are on the way home for the happiness in their hearts.
The journey home was long, but every step was full of anticipation. Outside the car window, the scenery is constantly changing, as if telling the changes in the hometown. And my heart has already flown back to that familiar place, sitting around the fire with my relatives, sharing the bits and pieces of the past year.
Home always feels so warm and peaceful. The lanterns at the door, the firecrackers in the yard, and the delicacies on the table are all symbols of the Spring Festival. The smiling faces and cordial greetings of my family made me feel that all the efforts were worth it.
On this special occasion, I would like to say to my loved ones back home, "Thank you for keeping a warm harbor for me." No matter how far I go, there is an eternal coordinate in my heart - home. Because there is a kind of happiness called going home for the New Year. ”
