The old house is very lively. Although there are no neon lights, there are enough blessings to make my old house happy. The bamboo poles in front of the door are covered with firecrackers, and the children are playing by the wellhead. On the morning of New Year's Eve, people from all walks of life rushed back from other places and cities to attend ancestor worship, without saluting or playing music, just for reunion. In my memory, there will be various acrobatic performances on New Year's Eve or at 189 o'clock on New Year's Day, but maybe this is only a small part of what I remember, and I forgot everything else.

Now that I am about to become an adult, what I see in front of me is different. There are not many people who worship their ancestors than before, but they look in a hurry, light incense candles, and the elders lead the younger generation to worship three times, lose some paper money, set off firecrackers, and leave. The incense is no longer lingering and people are buzzing.

On New Year's Eve, people get together, but after the reunion dinner, people go about their business. Adults play poker and children surf the Internet. In the past, the days when families sat together to watch the Spring Festival Gala no longer existed. On New Year's Day, the tradition is to pay New Year's greetings as soon as I get up, but I still get up like a machine and live a study life. I can't help thinking: is the taste of the year weak, or am I growing up?

Perhaps the taste of Chinese New Year is not weak at all, because besides the simplification of ancestor worship and the reduction of fireworks, there are all kinds of novel Chinese New Year ways I have seen. People are more and more accustomed to Chinese New Year travel, Chinese New Year study and Chinese New Year sports. There are fewer and fewer people on the poker table and fewer and fewer people in front of the TV. From this perspective, the taste of the year is really not weak. I have come to the conclusion that this year's taste is light. Maybe I was lonely for a while, and I came to a conclusion after watching the movie.

Indeed, as time goes by, my age has increased a lot. I am not as naive as I was when I was a child. At that time, I could walk around with firecrackers and light them if I wanted. Now, if I do this, I will be called naive. Indeed, I must make sacrifices for this growth. However, if I only look at my age, I have grown up. Now I am a high school student, and the pressure makes me involuntarily. I can't manage these traditional things. Compared with those wanderers who have been wandering for a long time, it is hard for me to understand the hardships of Wan Li's returning home just to get together. I don't have the same experience as them, and I feel the warmth of home from the bottom of my heart, so I am actually a child who hasn't grown up yet. I can only feel the warmth of the New Year at the time of reunion, but I didn't pay.

I can always feel the changes of various traditions, but I won't miss the past and hurt the present like an old man. For me, what I experienced during the New Year is the power of inheritance and the power to maintain the unity of the Chinese nation for thousands of years, which I can't deny. Judging from my meager experience, the taste of the year is not weak, but I haven't really grown up yet.
