The Chinese New Year passed. During the vacations many of my old friends in China sent me messages to give there best wish to me, which recalled my memories about them.
It is said that when on some festivals, people are easy to miss their families and their old friends. I used not to believe it because I just thought people will be happy on festivals. Why will people think such sad things? But now, I believe it because now I am experiencing it. It is not just a feeling of sadness. It is a mixture of sadness that I can not meet them and care that I wonder whether they are happy or not.
When I saw the messages, it seemed that their familiar lovely faces appear in front of my eyes. And then the happy memories came into my mind. I still remember the scene that we were working hard for our future. I still remember the jokes that we played on each other. I still remember the happy time we shared with each other. How I wish I could meet them sit around a table and have a casual conversation with them right now. But I know I can not unless I am in my dream.
When I got the messages, I was also moved by them. Though I was not with my friends, they would also remember me and sent me messages even though the fee for sending messages over different countries was quite a lot. They showed me what was friendship, a thing that could go through the time and space, a thing that can give us warmth.
Best wishes to all my friends and hope they will be healthy and happy and get many blessings in the new year.

How dare you write what I also want to say!Haha...I also have the same feeling.It's the first time for us to celebrate,maybe I should not say "celebrate",the Chinese New Year without our family members and familiar friends.Before,I thought that's a natural thing and the festival become less interesting as I grew up.But now i know it's not the feeling in my deep heart. The festival is very significant.
ReplyDeleteNow I also miss them very much.To my delight, one of my best friends has promised that when I go back this year,he will come to see me from the university, even if he may have to ask for a leave.
Anyway, let's learn English well.Or else,when we go back, they 'll laugh at us.
