CNY is coming~ a friend told me yesterday, it has no meaning already. As a kid, it was more exciting as we get older it gets boring. I nodded.
I remember how I used to feel excited to go my dad's side relatives' house. How I used to get excited to go out, or decorating my house to prepare for the festive or the ang baos. Now these have faded. Decreasing marginal ultility? I think every year as CNY approach I'll feel this way. & I'm still envious of those who are close with relatives and cousins.
As I flip "mypaper" today, there was this article on more adults picking up baking CNY goodies instead of buying. Some bake with their children. Then it reminded me, CNY is not just to celebrate the lunar new year. But a time for us to slow down, spend time with our families and loved ones. Why should I care about the family conflicts, how relatives behaves.. As long as my loved ones are happy. =) At the same time, I'm gonna make sure in future, the unhappy things will not be passed on.
Anyhows, as usual, I cannot wait for the reunion dinner!!~ & I've got to start the decorating.
