Streamline your life and cherish what you love.

Once upon a time, when we celebrated the New Year, we only cared about the excitement and pursued a sense of ceremony. However, as the years go by, we begin to understand that today's Spring Festival is more concerned about the state of mind, which is an attitude towards life. Some people say that as you get older, life fades away and festivals get closer. There is some truth to this. Not burdened by superficial work, not burdened by social interactions, being kind to yourself, and taking care of your family is the right way for the Spring Festival.

Low face.

In Chinese culture, face is not only a word, but also a cultural symbol. During the Spring Festival, people who have traveled far from their hometowns have returned to show their status and resources. Regardless of status, people strive to maintain an image of success and affluence, unwilling to be belittled by others. Therefore, gift-giving has become an inevitability, and inviting guests to dinner is the highlight of the Spring Festival. However, behind these seemingly gorgeous surfaces lies huge pressure and financial burden. Yishu once said: "Face is the most difficult thing for a person to let go, and it is the most useless thing." Indeed, people who really care about you will not value your external pomp, but are willing to share the bits and pieces of life with you.

The circle is highly matched. Before the Chinese New Year, I met with a few old friends for a drink and chat, chatting about the gains and losses of the past year, looking forward to future plans, and reminiscing about interesting stories from my childhood. We are no longer keen on participating in unnecessary social activities, but prefer to spend quality time with people who are connected to our hearts. Qian Zhongshu, Yang Jiang, Chen Xiaoqing and others are all such models, they abandon vain social interaction and choose to share time with confidants. In the new year, real socialization is not about the complexity of the scene, but about the sincerity of emotions. Surround yourself with like-minded people to reap the true taste of life.

Family top. There is nothing more important in life than family. Money, power, and status are difficult to compare with the warmth of family. Many people are busy with their careers when they are young and neglect the importance of spending time with their families. Wang Shuo once lost the warmth of his family because of his excessive pursuit of fame and fortune, and finally regretted it. However, the great director Ang Lee knows how to balance career and family, and leaves most of his time to his family, so he reaps the happiness and warmth of his family. No matter what fame and fortune are, family will always be our most solid support. This year's Spring Festival, let us put aside the vanity of the outside, share the joy of family with our families, and leave good memories.

Epilogue.

In the new year, let us eliminate the complexity and uselessness of life, and cherish the warmth and preciousness in the deepest part of our hearts. Spending quality time with your family and sharing your soul's insights with your confidants is the only way to truly feel the taste of life. May we all find the deepest peace and satisfaction in our hearts this Spring Festival.
