The value of family, closely intertwined with the Spring Festival, is not exclusive to Chinese tradition, say the writers.January 29, 2025, is the first day of a new year, the Year of the Snake, on the lunisolar Chinese calendar. People of Chinese heritage all over the world are immersed in the festive joy of Chinese New Year – or the Spring Festival, as it is more commonly known.
The Spring Festival, as the most momentous festival of the Chinese tradition, not only bears the weight of thousands of years of cultural heritage and national memory, but also serves as a grand celebration of family. Like every tradition passed down for generations, the Spring Festival has evolved in how it is celebrated. In the past, due to scarcity, the majority of Chinese people led thrifty lives, and as a result, festivities were constrained.
The value of family, closely intertwined with the Spring Festival, is not exclusive to Chinese tradition. Across the globe, people from diverse ethnic groups, cultures, and regions have their own grand festivals centered on family and togetherness. For example, during Christmas, people painstakingly decorate a warm home environment, prepare a sumptuous holiday feast, and the entire family congregates around the Christmas tree, exchanging gifts and conveying love and care among family members.
