别人的节日-----万圣节(Halloween)鬼影

  每年的10月31日,是西方传统的万圣节。俺我的理解,应该相当于中国的鬼节。万圣节的主要标识为,骑着扫帚的女巫、幽灵、小妖精和骷髅。当然南瓜灯蝙蝠猫头鹰也是必要的构成元素。作为一个中国人本应该入乡随俗,但是,由于年龄的原因,那份对故乡对自有的传统文化习俗的观念已很难改变。这乡相虽入,但这俗却难改。正因为这样每年一到人家过节的时候,我想我的心情和海外的所有华人都一样,不由自主的会涌上心头一种说不出的思乡情结。

骑着扫帚的女巫、幽灵、小妖精和骷髅都是万圣节标志物。蝙蝠、猫头鹰和其他夜间活动的动物也是

   最近听说国内流行过洋节,而且是什么洋节都过。不管人家的节日内涵是什么,也不管应不应该庆祝,或者说庆祝什么,照葫芦画瓢,全班照收。悲哀!

  不说别的,圣诞节是庆祝耶稣诞生。首先的说说,信奉宗教没有错,我也很羡慕人家的宗教信仰。可是,你不信你为什么庆祝,有过的哪门子节日?再说,那也不是节。圣诞节不是节?你没说错吧?没有!那是ChristmasDay(耶稣诞辰日)。话好像说远了,整散了。现如今的万圣节也完全是为了纪念死去的先人的一种活动,每年一进入十月份,英国的街头你会发现很多人的胸口会带起一种有着绿叶相配的红花,以及各种名目的聚会和纪念活动也因此展开。那种花我很想带,但是我却是不可以。为什么?为英国的先人带花吗?哥们,别忘了1840年的鸦片战争。

   万圣节---一个别人的节日,它不属于我。
