Holiday Experience



 Holiday Experience

          The weather is turning cool gradually, and there are big differences of the temperatures between day and night. I have special sense for autumn. Maybe just because Mid-Autumn festival in autumn.                                                                 
          In my childhood, when the round moon was hanging in the sky at night of the mid-autumn festival, my father always put a table in the yard, besides some moon cakes, there were also fruits such as watermelon, apples and grapes on the table. My grandma, mother, father, younger sister and I were around the table enjoying the delicious food and talking and laughing.
         Nowadays, I felt lonely in United States, I am deeply aware how worth it was to cherish. All my loves were around; there was rare worry in the heart and everything was so peaceful. The moonlight was warm, and our family was as whole as the moon then.
   The longer I am away from my hometown, the more seriously I am homesick. There are thousands of kilometers away between China and U.S. People often say that what you are thinking about is what you can see from the moon, but the place is difference although all we can see the moon.

  3. I didn't know that your family is in China.
    Fortunately, I don't have any home sick like you. Hope everything get better.

    p.s. My favorite moon cake's flavor is durian.
