中秋.jpg
The mid autumn festival, a traditional day in which We Chinese celebrate.
Gathered by the national spirit, wherever we go, family reunion is with us. The brighter moon lies on the home, and the home is where the heart is. From old-time to the present, The spirit changes not, as the moon waxes and wanes, back and forth.
The mid autumn and reunion.
Which, is what inside Chinese, and that entices us going home.
Accumulated homesickness turns into overwhelming happiness as we reunite, at such a day.

Among the year, the thing that triggers memory the most
Excepting The spring festival, would be The mid autumn festival
Will you go home this year in The mid autumn?
Although we are thousand miles apart, wish you all the best.

It is again mid autumn festival, a day of reunion to all of us. But to those of you away from hometown struggling for life, today is nothing but another day of homesick.

Since your parents start using Wechat

The frequently asked question should supposedly be

Have you eaten, or are you off work.

Hows your well-being?

Or asking implicitly

When will you come back home.

Remember when you left hometown full of ambitions, travelled around unknown and busy city, and imprinted footprints and bitter tears here and there.
Your hometown, unconsciously turns into a roadside inn on your way pursue education and career. Every departure comes with bitter tears of parents.

And now, as the moon waxes, and mid autumn approaches, its time to go home.
