59 Qingming Festival

The just-passed Qingming Festival made me feel scared, just because of its strangeness and bad luck.

As usual, I rode an electric bike to pick up my fiancée from get off work. Along the way, I saw scattered passers-by taking off their thick cotton jackets and changing into light summer clothes. Indeed, the weather is almost as cool as summer! I am still wearing a cotton coat, with a poor physique and pharyngitis, and I am worried about being frozen.

Along the way, I saw someone kneeling on the ground every once in a while, with yellow paper burning in front of me. The yellow paper emitted a faint flame, and the faces of the kneeling people shining with yellow flames. Only then did I realize that it was another Qingming Festival. Time flies so fast, why is it another Qingming Festival?

Of course, time is still racing against time as always. After worrying about gains and losses, it feels like time passes by.

Back to the point, after returning home, I felt dizzy and sometimes it was difficult to stand. I joked to tell my prospective fiancée, "Is it because I was infected with something wrong?"

When there are some problems with the body's functions, I will inevitably think about superstitiously. On the Qingming Festival, my deceased relatives come to me for some pastoral things.

I want to stop this ridiculous speculation immediately, and if I continue to think about it, something deeper will emerge.

Aside from the terrible superstition, I thought about it from a scientific perspective, and the results I thought of were even more terrifying.

In fact, on Qingming Festival, I also want to spend some money on the two deceased grandpas. But I am not sure whether this filial piety can be received by my grandpa who is far away in the Kingdom of Heaven. Even if I have this filial piety in this Great Gobi Desert, I am worried that there are too many lonely ghosts on the Gobi Desert, so there will naturally be more people robbing money. For a moment, save some money and spend it for me, a living person! I hope that the relatives of the Kingdom of Heaven can understand it.

It is worth mentioning that with the continuous development of society, the methods of worshiping during the Qingming Festival have also been replaced. Some websites have specially set up online worship interfaces, which are both environmentally friendly and easy to deal with, and can also express a kind of nostalgia for the deceased. From the market of the underworld currency, we can see that the underworld currency has always depreciated greatly. From the initial few cents, it has now increased to thousands. In this way, I still feel that the famous coins are the strongest, and the current highest face value is also 100. Although the world is suffering, at least under the strong leadership of the government, a well-off level has been basically achieved. The underworld is more suffering than the human world. If you have to buy a bag of salt, you have to hold a thousand dollars of money for the underworld. Maybe it is not enough!

The Qingming Festival commemoration mainly expresses the nostalgia of the living for the deceased, and is also an important way of social activities. Through the annual commemoration, it is like making an annual summary of the deceased, allowing the deceased to develop with peace of mind in the sky. But more of it is the awe and nostalgia for the deceased throughout his life.

It can be seen that every Qingming Festival, groups of people will walk into the martyrs' cemetery and in front of the monument to the dead compatriots, expressing their infinite respect and condolences for the personality of the great deceased during their lifetime. Through this activity, the living people are encouraged to muster up the courage to be strong for the deceased.

After taking some cold medicine, my dizziness improved. It was just a cold and had no direct connection with Qingming Festival.
