1. A kind of New Year's flavor that can't be kept: while returning to my hometown, I found itChinese New YearThe atmosphere became strange and alienating. The originally busy and lively market has now been replaced by a pre-holiday rush to buy e-commerceFireworksThe aftermath of firecrackers is muffled by the sound effects of live streams and mobile games. traditional in the villageNew Year's customsThe activity has slowly faded, replaced by the sound of mahjong playing cards all night in various families, and the flowing Spring Festival couplets and lanterns have long since become a thing of the past. And this strange scene not only makes the young people feel confused, but also makes the older generation sigh, the taste of the past is like flowing water, which cannot be grasped and is difficult to keep.
Expanding: Compared to the past, today'sRuralChinese New Year, as if covered with a veil of numbers, traditional customs are gradually submerged by trendy things. At the corner of the village, there is no longer a full hangingRed LanternThe lively scene was replaced by a crowd of migrant workersFast food restaurantsand supermarkets, where they are looking for the taste of home, but they are unfamiliar with this nostalgic traditional New Year's flavor. The houses in the courtyard of the hometown are covered with the words "Spring Festival", which are prosperous, but they become dim and dull in the continuous ringing of mobile phone ringtones. Cooked with careChinese New Year's Eve dinnerFood shows on television have gradually become an unattainable luxury, and people's mental journeys have long since become intimately connected to their hometowns.
Second, the new characteristics of traditional overflow: with the rapid development of society, all kinds of new things are inRuralThe region has become popular, and electronic devices such as mobile phones have gradually penetrated into every corner of the home. InChinese New YearDuring this period, the family sat together, but each held a mobile phone, immersed in their own digital world, and interaction became scarce. It is no longer the lively scene of visiting relatives and friends in the past, but more of the sound of commentary coming out of the room, which is permeated with an atmosphere that is both familiar and unfamiliar. Although everyone gathers together, it seems to be separated by a transparent social wall, and the warmth and affection of home seem to be replaced by these seemingly close friends connected to the Internet.
Expanding: InRural, a new social model is quietly emerging, even if it is hereChinese New YearOn this traditional day of reunion, people are also more inclined to hang around the screen with their fingertips than to communicate face-to-face at the dinner table. RuralThe children held their newly bought smartphones and discussed the latest hot topics on the Internet, while the older generation sighed helplessly about the changes brought about by the digital age. The elders in the family still keep the traditional way of cooking smoke and eating together, but they find that communication has become more and more difficult in the fragmented information of mobile phones. Young people in the family may no longer use traditional ways to express care and love, but are more accustomed to sending messages and WeChat messages, which seems to be a convenient way of communication, but it has gradually eroded the sincere emotional communication between people.
3. Material growth and spiritual vacancy: in the withEconomyWith the rapid development of the village, every household in the village has begun to make great progress in material terms, and the brand-name cigarettes, which were originally regarded as high, have now become ordinary and ordinary. What was once an expensive gift to show off status and status is now only a part of society. Because of the increasing popularity of comparison, every family in the village began to chase higher goals, and was no longer satisfied with the well-off life in front of them. The increasing number of cars on the country roads and the gradual increase in the number of new shops and restaurants on the streets are all modernEconomyThe dramatic changes brought about by development. At the same time, however, spiritual life seems empty, the pursuit of material abundance rather than spiritual satisfaction, and comparison and vanity gradually stifle the goodness and beauty of people's hearts.
Expansion: With the changes of the times andEconomyof the constant growth,RuralThe face has been completely renewed, and a new trend has evolved - comparing beauty with beauty. In every alley and alley in my hometown, you can see new smart home appliances, and every household is talking about the latest mobile phone styles and the most fashionable clothing styles. What was once a prominent souvenir has become obsolete and worthless, and families with increased incomes are keen to buy itImported goods, the pursuit of a higher quality of life. Against this backdrop, people's material needs are constantly expanding, while the focus on spiritual life is gradually indifferent. Traditional customs and culture are drifting apart, and people pay more attention to external forms and material possessions, while ignoring the fullness and balance of the spiritual world, and this materialistic phenomenon has deeply affected the whole thingRuralSociety.
Fourth, the collision of reality and falsehood: every timeChinese New YearThere are always those who return to their hometowns in a way that they think are glamorous, but when faced with old friends, they begin to brag about their very obvious and bizarre achievements and identities by any means necessary. They talk about their seemingly noble work and life, and they boast that they are in the same car as the local magnates. However, the gap between this illusory reality and the truth makes people feel a trace of helplessness and sympathy. Immersed in the ostentation of their hometown, this group seems to have forgotten what they really are and what they really are, and this behavior has intensified in the village, fueling vanity and deception in people's hearts.
Expanding: Every young person has a yearning in his heart, a dream to pursue a better life, however, at the moment of returning home for the New Year, it is easy to get lost between reality and illusion. InRuralIn every corner, there will always be people standing in the crowd to boast about their success and prosperity, waving cigarette butts in their hands and talking about their so-called achievements. In their words, one seems to be seenBrightA brilliant future, a dream world that is completely different from reality. The contrast between this false reality and the simple customs of their hometown makes people feel the huge gap between reality and dreams, and it also makes people reflect on and examine their own definitions of success and happiness.
