Like the Spring Festival, scattered Americans go home for reunion on Thanksgiving Day. Allen; Goodman is waiting for his children to come home.
At the same time, I think that when their children grow up and leave home, they often settle in distant places, and the relationship between parents and children is also changing.
Where is home?
Allen. Gidman
"The children are going home for the holidays.
"
My friend solemnly said this when we exchanged Thanksgiving menus and holiday arrangements with each other.
I was so shocked that I couldn't help thinking that the words we used were just as interesting.
"Since when,
"I asked,
"Let's grow up.
Children of adults are called' children'.
"
Thinking of the passage of time, our own mother still calls us "girls"
We couldn't help laughing out loud, and then she
Stop laughing.
"Since when,
"asked my old friend,
"Our children have become people who go home on holidays.
"Two people in my heart.
Sour and sweet.

This week is the time for our friends to take their children home, but they are eager to get them out of the crowded airport.
When you get it back.
We are busy arranging our children,
Nephews and nieces,
Cousins and cousins sat at the table one after another.
Just like a beautiful tableware, it is only used occasionally on special occasions.
These energetic young generations no longer cross the river through the forest. They squeezed through the ticket office and stuffed their luggage into their seats.
Suitcase. They flew home on an airline plane, and the bosses of those companies were thinking about the whole flight and praying.
The fine weather continued.

This week, Americans are crowded with planes and highways, all wanting to go back to places they no longer live in but still call home.
This proves that the family has the attraction of bringing joy to people. Go home for the New Year.
But my old friend subtly touched on another fact, that is, several generations of this country are scattered all over the country.
Our family life is dull, and the socks in the children's drawers and anything on their faces are unhappy.
Love is clear, but now we must welcome them home and put them in the designated guest room.
My friend said, "We have the right to visit each other." . She is a mother and lives in the telephone area code.

Place, look forward to meeting.
Then live in the area code

Children in this area go home. We keep in touch, we exchange information, we exchange information with each other.
Say hello and say goodbye. But we still tried to learn how to shorten the "good time" of reunion, but we got together.
More times.
My friend didn't complain. None of us want to go back to the good old days. It seems that the lair that has been empty for thousands of years now feels
Spacious and spacious.
More importantly, when we raise our children, we hope that they can see farther. We told them the world was yours,
Go and have the world.
One by one, they went to own the world,
Some have already left.
305
Some have already left.
2 15
Some have already left.

After all, this is the American way of life.
Therefore, we send and receive emails, and we travel, thinking that keeping in touch-at least virtual contact-is better than what I am doing now.
Our own parents were much more convenient when they were young, and we couldn't help being grateful. I am deeply happy to create my own life for the "children".

However, once in a while, a less patriotic thought will pass through our minds. Is this the American way, where family members like each other?
So far away, this unusual national tradition is as unique as Thanksgiving.
We are an immigrant country,
Founded by Puritan immigrants,
People who left their homes intentionally or forcibly once lived here.
Our national myth is based on the temptation to leave home and start over.

Let's go to the west first and then to the west. Let's look forward to it.
The best land in the end, but this is only one stop on the road.
Even Robert? Frost is the most famous,
The most American definition—
"Home is where you have to go,
They have to accept where you are "-the subtext is that home is not a place for detention.
.
As a middle-aged person, my friends and I have seen the elderly moving from independent houses to apartments, from the north to the south, and getting old slowly.
Sunbirds are still on the move. At the other end of the interlayer between generations, we pay attention to the words used by children. they
Go home on Tuesday
Go home on Sunday.
Today, many Americans find it difficult to answer "Where are you from?" Do we all have dual origins?
national
Do we pay more attention to the increasingly weak family ties than to our own feelings?
These problems are not important in the atmosphere of 1 1 month, and our topic has also shifted from the return of children to turkey stuffing and chestnuts.
The advantages and disadvantages of children. After all, this is a time to celebrate reunion, not to meditate on the pain of parting.
The children are going home. It is not the lack of food that brings us back to the full table of food, but each other.
The relationship between. While enjoying turkey and pie, we sat down and tasted the warmth of reunion.

In this mobile country, we stayed at home all Thanksgiving and enjoyed our family.
