Why are people unwilling to respond to the call of "celebrating the New Year on the spot"?

In less than a month, our traditional Spring Festival in 2022 will come again. However, with the recent changes in the epidemic situation in some places in the north, many provinces and cities advocate migrant workers to celebrate the Spring Festival on the spot, hoping that governments at all levels can arrange for all those who can't go home during the Spring Festival to have a quiet and peaceful Spring Festival in other places. This is the second time that the country has put forward the call of celebrating the New Year on the spot after the Spring Festival of 20021. But this call will definitely bring a certain impact to everyone's mind. It seems that the idea of going home all the year round will run aground again this time. Combined with our own situation, I want to talk about the following reasons why people don't want to celebrate the New Year on the spot:

First, there is no atmosphere of Chinese New Year. The custom of Chinese New Year is different in every place, and the difference between north and south is even greater. Because of the epidemic, I haven't returned to my hometown in the north for the New Year for two years. Instead, I left my work place in the south and celebrated the New Year on the spot. Although I don't worry about eating and drinking, the homesickness of the Spring Festival is stronger than at any time of the year. Imagine that in the north, we can watch the snow, make a snowman with our children and go outside to watch yangko. The taste of Chinese New Year is really different from that of thousands of people singing in South Square (this activity in this city has been suspended for two years because of the epidemic). Watching my colleagues in the same city go home for the New Year, as a foreigner, only I know the bitterness.

Second, the meaning of home does not lie in a physical house, but also carries the joys and sorrows of all migrant workers. In China people's minds, the concept of home contains too many things, including parents' affection and their responsibilities to their wives and children. Ye Jia is the spiritual sustenance of all those who work hard outside. Every Spring Festival, you can not only meet your family, but also get together with long-lost friends. Many people, like me, only go home during the Spring Festival. Only at this time, childhood friends can sit together, really release the pressure and tension in the workplace, put aside everything, show off the world and be true to themselves.

Going home for the New Year is an inventory of the achievements of one's own efforts in the past year, and it is also to cheer for better work next year. I think many migrant workers, like me, may only go home once a year. Although it is usually the Spring Festival, even though everyone has already gone home at this time, even though there are many problems such as expensive transportation fees and difficulty in buying tickets, why do people still go home as usual during the Spring Festival? Other reasons are mostly for a commitment to home, because I am too busy at ordinary times, so I need a reason to do everything. You can see parents, wives and children. After the baptism of the Spring Festival, I hope to go to a foreign land next year. Fight for this family. If you really lack such a sense of annual ceremony of going home, sometimes you really don't know what the purpose of your daily struggle is. Only home can give you a reason and persistent confidence.

Third, although there may be a thousand unwilling people, the call of the country must also be answered. It seems that we will spend the New Year in the south again this year. Although it feels comfortable, it is still acceptable. The epidemic situation is still grim. If I go home to work, I may be quarantined 14 days. If there are other unknown situations on the road, I may still affect my family and colleagues. Going home during the Spring Festival is because of personal responsibility, and not going home is also because of responsibility and responsibility. I hope the epidemic will pass as soon as possible, and I will have a happy New Year with my family next Spring Festival.
