How Do You Spent Your Thanksgiving Day In China
In recent years western holidays have become more popular in China. Although they are not so important to Chinese people as traditional holidays, they have more peoples attention now. Today is Thanksgiving Day. I did not realize this until evening. I hope it is not too late to spend my Thanksgiving Day.
In US Thanksgiving Day is a very important holiday. I think it is somewhat like our Middle-autumn Festival. People celebrated their harvest and thanked the Indians on the first Thanksgiving Day in 1941. From then on this holiday becomes a day to express our thanks to others. Maybe this is why it also becomes popular in big cities in China.
Since this holiday is a day to thank someone, you can have a wonderful day wherever you are. Besides, Chinese people are also grateful.
As I have mentioned above, Thanksgiving Day is not so important in China. It does not belong to the National holidays. Thus it is impossible for most people to spend the holiday with their families. It cannot be better if you can get together with your family on this day. If you cannot, you can also have a good holiday. Because this does not mean that we cannot express our thanks to them. You can just give your parents a call, or sent a message for your beloved spouse. Or you can prepare a special meal for you kid. If you are single, you can also spend this day with your friends. I always believe that what really matters is with whom you are spending the holiday. What matters is that whether you hold a positive attitude to life.
The meaning of thanks is not so superficial. Nowadays people complain too much. It is true that we are under great pressure in our jobs; it is also true we have so many troubles in our daily life. So it is understandable that we will complain sometimes. However, complaint is not the purpose of life. When we complain too much, we usually forget that we should be grateful. There are a lot of people as well as things that we should thank.
In my opinion, the point of Thanksgiving Day is that you have to thank someone. A holiday does not equal to a meal. Maybe you can take a break from your work, and spend one night with those who you love very much. Once you know how to be thankful, you will have a perfect Thanksgiving Day.
