People did not have rich entertainment as we do right now.

The step of new year approaches to the last moment when people are about to celebrate this festival. On some level, this traditional festival has evolved into the modern style that most of those rites have been faded from people's memory, especially the young, they have their own activities to embrace new life style. Whatever it is going to be influenced, the image of tradition still occupies and recalls us to know it is the time that we should gather together with family having fun in warm around of reunion. 

The city now is almost empty and most of citizens go to either abroad or some other domestic tourist spots. Since the fireworks are not to be allowed showing in the nights, the quality of air becomes much better. The suburb and countryside still have fireworks, this night is doomed to be noisy full of strong smell of sulfur. Meanwhile everyone becomes a gourmet to enjoy palatable food. 

For years, I have not watched the live of spring festival gala. The old memory of programs in that gala was many years ago when I was in middle school. At that age, people did not have rich entertainment as we do right now. Now the various kinds of recreations provide us with magnificent joyfulness. The Red Envelop even has become the fashion among apps such as Wechat and Alipay, the technology alters our life. We can not shelter ourselves safely from the invasion of the trend of modernization. Let it be with the development of everything goes to be like in its own position. 

This is the time to welcome the lunar new year and say farewell to the old year. Read a book, visit friends, talk with family, travel somewhere, are all options that we can choose. Apart from the tradition, we have freedom the pursue the life we want. It is not that far away from the dream that we have as long as there hope and action.
