Why doesn’t China advocate adult rites?

Why is it better for ordinary people not to celebrate their birthdays? Why is it better for ordinary people not to have a big birthday? The more birthdays an ordinary person lives, the lower his blessings will be; the longer an ordinary person lives, the sooner he will die. In fact, in many rural areas, many people of the older generation know a secret. In rural areas, we will find that some old people may be 60, 70, or 80 years old, and their health has always been good, but after a big birthday, after two or three months, they are gone. Why? Because these old people can’t afford to live.
Our ancestors often said a word, can you bear it? The word “shoubububu” comes from the word “shou”. We Chinese are very particular. When we accept other people’s blessings, we first need to see if we have the virtue to carry other people’s blessings to you. In order to show that their family is rich, face, and ostentation, they invite a lot of people of all kinds. Such a person came over, and finally someone said, who is this old man, he has nothing to do to celebrate his birthday, and he wants to make red envelopes. Many people regard this kind of sophistication and the birthday as a kind of pressure. Many people want to ask if I get him a 500 red envelope today, will he give it to me in the future? Many people don’t really come to bless you, maybe because you are forced to give up your face, they want to give up their jobs, their studies, and many more valuable things, just to say “Happy Birthday” to you.
Are we entitled to birthdays? Birthday is our mother’s day of suffering. Many children will invite countless friends on their birthday, put their parents aside, and only care about their own happiness and chic. This is the opposite. On the day of your birthday, what you need to know is that your mother almost gave her life to give birth to you. On this day, what we should learn is to be filial. birthday.
Zeng Shiqiang also said, but birthday is the best, celebrating birthday is like telling God that you have lived for so long. However, there should be a reason for birthdays. Anyway, I have seen many elderly people get seriously ill after their big birthdays. A few years before their big birthdays, there is nothing wrong with their small birthdays. They get seriously ill soon after their big birthdays. There are some things that cannot be justified clear. In short, the West cannot live without Jerusalem, just like Ms. Liu cannot live without a coming-of-age ceremony!
