The Lingering Charm of Dragon Boat Festival - Whispers of Time in the Scent of Zongzi

The Dragon Boat Festival has passed, and the fragrance of bamboo leaves gradually fades in the damp air of the rainy season. Yet those mornings infused with the fresh aroma of mugwort, wrapped in the warmth of glutinous rice, settle into memory with a unique charm. During the festival, the process of making zongzi by hand allowed me to appreciate the allure of traditional culture. In my clumsy attempts to follow video tutorials, my fingers entwined not just with cotton threads but with the wisdom passed down through generations. The dragon boat racing scenes in the videos were truly exhilarating. This thousand-year-old tradition vividly showcases the power of unity and the pursuit of perseverance. The Dragon Boat Festival has long transcended being merely a holiday, becoming a vivid manifestation of national spirit. In our fast-paced modern lives, how do we preserve the "soul" of traditional festivals? Perhaps it lies in every authentic folk activity and in the patient retelling of ancient stories to younger generations. After the festival, life returns to its quiet rhythm. The traditional culture hidden in subtle folds may require our delicate efforts to unfold it, ensuring the fragrance of Dragon Boat Festival zongzi forever lingers in the river of time.
