This year, Teachers' Day encountered the Mid-Autumn Festival, and finally took a day's vacation openly.
Let’s talk about the Mid-Autumn Festival first. Like other traditional festivals, the atmosphere is becoming more and more dull. In fact, it is inevitable to think about it. Many years ago, people’s living standards were generally not high, and holidays became an opportunity to improve food and life. This day is full of rituals. Both adults and children have expectations for the festival. For example, on the Mid-Autumn Festival, children will look forward to eating moon cakes, waiting for someone to hang red lanterns, and will pester adults to tell the story of Chang'e in the Guanghan Palace...
Now people's living standards have generally improved, but they have no expectations for traditional Mid-Autumn Festival and other festivals. Maybe because if you want to eat moon cakes, you don't have to wait until Mid-Autumn Festival. If you want to eat, you can go to the supermarket to buy various moon cakes at any time. However, not many children still love to eat moon cakes. It may be that traditional festivals are no longer an opportunity to improve their lives. If you want to improve your food and drink, you can improve them at any time. If you want to buy a piece of clothing, you don't have to wait for the festival, so you don't have much expectations for traditional festivals. If you really have some expectations, you may be able to get a day off in a fast-paced life and take a break.
As for Teachers' Day, as an educator, I have long hated this festival. Teachers' Day does not give teachers a holiday. On the contrary, if it is on the weekend, it will definitely work overtime. Teachers' Day is the time to get the first place in the annual evaluation and requires audiences. However, only by truly struggling in the position of teachers can you realize that those who stand on the podium are not necessarily excellent, and those who sit in the audience are not necessarily mediocre. As a teacher, it is good to keep the original intention of teaching and educating people. I sincerely hope to give you a day off holiday.
The bright moon grows on the sea, and this time is shared by the ends of the world. The two festivals were full of emotions. I wish everyone a happy Mid-Autumn Festival, happiness and health! I wish all teachers who keep their original aspirations good health and happiness!
