about mooncakes and the festival
My foreign friend once said
that mooncake package
s are so beautiful and delicate, why does
n't he
never
see anyone eat
ing them? I answered
that they are too dry and most
of Chinese don't like to eat mooncakes
. Instead
, they view them as a symbol and send
them to
people as
a present
s. When people receive
d an exquisite gift contain
ing mooncakes,
they don't even open it, but simply sen
d it to friends.
So, when it comes to the Mid-Aautumn Festival. In ancient China, the
Mid-Aautumn Festival it was a melancholy day
for those who couldn't
make it back home.
So instead (or to console themselves) they admired the beauty of moon and composed poems
. ,it has been thousand years,wWe can't remember
so many
of the poets
from the past thousand years, but countless excellent poems about
the moon and nostalgia are often talked
about and cited.
Nowadays, the Festival is not so very elegant. The happiest thing I guess is to do is to stay be with family and enjoy have a dinner together, of course, usually without no mooncakes.
When people feel a sense of nostalgia, they will look up and gaze at the moon, as thought if they were together with the most important people to them.
This was an interesting read. Be sure to insert a space after commas (and semicolons, when you use them).
