中秋愉快

祝各方同好大德們

中秋佳節快樂圓滿!!

Today is Chinese "Moon Festival".It  is an impotant day of Chinese culture.This day means fullest moon in a year ,and  autumn comes really in the Chinese calendar.Chinese is a country built by agriculture for thouesand years.So  climato-days like Moon Festival,or Dragon-boat Festival were appreciated by Chinese.

Thouesands year passed,many lores ,stories and myths were created in these days.For exemple  the Moon Festival,a story about long long time ago ,a queen named Chang-Er  get away from king,and flied to the moon.About another story what a man named Wu-Gang logged cherry bay  on the moon....and so on.

People  enjoyed beautiful full moon and imagined what stories  happened about the moon.This movement became traditionary at Moon Festifal .Full moon also means  reunion and perfection ,just like a moon with

 roundness.So in this day, people who work away from home will come home with family.

In today's Taiwan,the day also becomes a "BBQ Festival".Each family or company almost get a BBQ party in this full-moon night .The moon is full or not?or light or not?It's  not any more important .

Anyway,it's a lucky and happy day.

Wish every one of my friends be happy in the "Moon Festival" 

^^

祝我的朋友們 中秋佳節 幸福圓滿又快樂!!
