It's Time to Gather With our Beloved Ones

Ladies of Hive Question #59

1️⃣ The holidays are all about tradition. What is your most cherished family holiday tradition? Tell us about it, how it came to be, and why it's special to you.

Hey lovely ladiesofhive,

What are you planning for the upcoming holiday season?

The holiday season is coming, and it's time to take a break from work and gather around the dinner table with our family and beloved ones. It is definitely a time for laughter, reflection, and celebration with those who matter most. For many of us, the holidays are the one time during the year when we can revisit traditions with our loved ones. We have been waiting all year, especially after all the tough things just happened, we will be finally filled with happiness knowing that this time is something special. Let us make sure to enjoy each moment as memories will last a lifetime.

What is Tet Holiday?

The holiday season is a very special time of year for many people. It can be a time for celebration, togetherness with friends and family, or the chance to take some needed time off work. For Vietnamese people, Tet is a time for celebration and togetherness with loved ones and friends. The Tet holiday, in Viet Nam, most commonly known as Vietnamese New Year, is the most important and well-liked holiday and takes place on the first day of the lunar year.

Why the TET holiday is so special to us?

The Tet Holiday is one of the most important holidays in Vietnam. The holiday is celebrated with family and friends traveling to their ancestral homes, visiting relatives, exchanging gifts, and eating traditional foods. People also prepare feasts during the day and enjoy firecrackers at night. We can also meet up with friends or relatives we haven’t seen since the Lunar New Year, which took place in February. One tradition of Tet is children visiting elders and wishing them well for health, happiness, longevity, and wealth in the new year ahead.

Home is where the heart is !!!

Many people go away for work during the year, and New Year is the chance season to return home and we cherish the time spent with friends and family. We often have a lot to tell our friends and family about what we have been up to.

We do understand that whenever we go, but in the end, home is truly the best place to be. The presence of loved ones, family, and friends at home is what makes it so special. There is always someone there to lend an ear, provide advice, offer encouragement, or simply share your joys and sorrows with you. Anytime we want to feel comforted and loved, there is no better place than in the arms of our family and beloved ones. They provide a sense of belonging and family. That's the reason why we cherish the TET holiday and the quality time with those we love so much..ch..ch ♥️♥️ . Let's go back home, baby !!!

I'm sure that many of us want to celebrate every holiday with the people we love most but some want to enjoy them by themselves without feeling guilty about it. Everyone needs a break from the hustle and bustle of modern life. Whether you're going back to your hometown for Christmas and New Year, or exploring a new city during a vacation, or just trying to escape winter at your family's cabin, I wish you a happy holiday season no matter where you are in the world.

Those pictures were taken at ROM coffee shop during my visit on New Year last year. I will update you with new pictures from our celebration soon

Sending you a HUGE LOVE from Viet Nam and wishing you a happy and safe holiday season.♥️♥️♥️

Hola, ¿cómo estás? José te saluda desde Aragua. Aragua está a dos horas de Caracas, la capital de Venezuela.
Nosotros acá en Vacaciones, y sobre todo en las de Diciembre, comemos hallacas, pan de jamón, chocolate caliente, junto con pan, además se usa el paneton, las uvas, las pasas, nueces, almendras.
Hubo un tiempo cuando era muy fácil obtener esos productos.
Venezuela vive una situación económica difícil, la peor diría yo en su historia, aun así nos reunimos todavía en familia, escuchamos música, cantamos, vemos a personas que tenias uno o dos años sin verlas.
El Tet, una nueva cosa, aprendí con tu publicación una tradición importante para ustedes.
Me llama la atencion lo de el calendario lunar. Excelente aprender mientras se interactúa en #Hive

Hello, how are you? Jose greets you from Aragua. Aragua is two hours away from Caracas, the capital of Venezuela.
We eat hallacas, ham bread, hot chocolate, hot chocolate, along with bread, also we use paneton, grapes, raisins, nuts, almonds, etc. There was a time when it was very easy to get those products.
There was a time when it was very easy to obtain these products.
Venezuela is going through a difficult economic situation, the worst I would say in its history, even so we still get together as a family, we listen to music, we sing, we see people we haven't seen for a year or two.
Tet, a new thing, I learned with your publication an important tradition for you.
I'm struck by the lunar calendar. Excellent to learn while interacting on #Hive.

Hey Jose, greetings from Viet Nam

Glad to know how much fun you have during the holiday there and sorry to hear about the current situation in your country; it's the same as in mine and other countries around the world. We have been greatly affected both economically and personally by the pandemic.

Hopefully, things get better next year and we're able to celebrate the holiday like before. Thank you for stopping by and leaving a comment. Have a wonderful weekend ahead :)

Yay it means we're also getting older 😀

Lol I lost my heart beat since I read this

That's a lot of preparation going on. I can feel the warmth.
I wish you have a wonderful festival time.

Yes @rem-steem, we normally prepare a lot of food and decoration for the Tet holiday :) My Mom always stays late until 2 AM on the first day to clean the house and everything. It's really an important holiday and we just want to make sure everything looks perfect :)

I greatly appreciated your visit; and hope you had a wonderful weekend :))

That's what we also do, wakes up till 2 or 3 to prepare for the next day.
Good to see the photos.

QuoteAnytime we want to feel comforted and loved, there is no better place than in the arms of our family and beloved ones.

There is no place better than home and no warmer arms than family and beloved ones. It has been 7 years I haven't come home to celebrate Tet with family. Tet overseas is not really Tet.

Sis, I wish things were different and if the pandemic didn't happen, you would be home to see your family. I hope you will be able to visit home next year

Much !LUV ♥️

It's so nice how other people from the other country celebrating holiday in their traditional way. Nice one @trangbaby

Tet Holiday here is as important as your X-mas holiday in the West. Thank you dear @silversaver888 for the great support and inspiration 😉😉

Hi, your sharing makes me want to get home soon!

Thank you 😍

You received 5 LADY(LOH) tokens for entering the Ladies of Hive contest.

Please note that since our LOH token is still so new, that it will be worth more if we HOLD them for a bit before trying to sell them. Some have been trying to sell them immediately after receiving them, but holding them for a bit will help them to increase in value! We are working behind-the-scenes to try to keep the price stable, but the "sell orders" are hampering the stabilization of the price of this new token. Please hold on to your tokens. Thank you! 🙂

Tenga en cuenta que, dado que nuestro token LOH todavía es tan nuevo, valdrá más si los MANTENEMOS por un tiempo antes de intentar venderlos. Algunos de ustedes han estado tratando de venderlos inmediatamente después de recibirlos, ¡pero retenerlos por un tiempo les ayudará a aumentar su valor! Estamos trabajando entre bastidores para tratar de mantener estable el precio, pero las "órdenes de venta" están obstaculizando la estabilización del precio de este nuevo token. ¡Considere esperar! ¡Gracias! 🤗

Nói đến tết năm nay không biết thế nào e nhỉ, dù già rùi nhưng vâcn mong đến Tết để về quê sum họp gia đình

Thanks for letting us know about your Tet holiday. I'm sure it's nice to meet your family and friends during that time. Reposted for others to get to know about Tet holiday as well. Beutiful post, @trangbaby.

I appreciate your kindness and support. :)
Tet is the most exciting time of year and I can't wait to see my family and friends 🤩

I miss home so much, especially the Tet holiday. It is one of our most important one, isn't it? I remember when I was small, I always counted on a calendar how many days left until Tet. Sometimes we have a double month in a year, I was so pissed because I had to wait until Feb to enjoy Tet.

Thank you for your invitation my dear, I will think about what to write for this week😘

I could feel you, my girl. Hope things will be better and you both will be able to return home and celebrate your wedding party here :)

Much !LUV

Family is definitely what it's all about! It sounds like yours has a wonderful time with your holiday. Thank you, @trangbaby, for sharing. Take care!

Thank you dear @elizabethbit :) I'm looking forward to the holiday with my family :)
Wish you a great week ahead ♥️

You make me feel homesick badly @trangbaby. Seeing those photos and the way you talk about Tet, it's truly Vietnamese! For a long time, I haven't seen many people still like Tet like you do. Maybe it's your happy energy that spreads the feeling of Tet. Thank you!

Thank you cô giáo. I'm not as interested in Tet as I used to be as a child, but I love the atmosphere and the time spent with family during this holiday.
Hopefully you will celebrate Tet Holiday in Vietnam next year. ♥️ Much !LUV

I was unaware of this Vietnamese holiday. It's good to know about these traditions through this nice community.
Thank you for your good wishes! I also wish you happy holidays.

Tet is the most important national holiday in Viet Nam because it's a time of happiness and togetherness :) Thank you for your visit and your kind wishes.

Will see you around and have a lovely week ahead ♥️

Family is everything and the place to be... I enjoyed reading

Family is the most important and time spent with family is precious ♥️
Thank you @deraaa for stopping by and hope you have a great weekend ahead :)

Totally agree with you on this one. You need to spend these days with the loved ones...Damn how nice it was also be to spend it with the loved ones in Vietnam hahaha

Spending time with family and beloved ones on these important holidays brings us joyous feelings of love, peace, and happiness. Thank you @karinxxl. I greatly appreciate you taking the time to stop by and your kind words. Have a great weekend ahead and will see you around. ♥️

Trang, so fun to see and learn more about the Vietnamese culture and Tet. Hope you have a wonderful time with your family and friends!

We definitely had a lot of fun during Tet Holiday and am looking forward to it now, only 1 month left ♥️
Thanks for your well wish ♥️😍

That sounds like a great celebration, your photos are beautiful 😍

Yes it's the greatest celebration of the year in Viet Nam. ^^
Thank you @littlepiggies for stopping by and I hope you're having a great weekend :)

Thanks for sharing your Tet holiday with us. One of the best things I love about HIVE is learning about other cultures from those who live in different countries.

And one thing I marvel at is while there are many differences in the cultures, there are also many similarities.

Celebrating happy times with family is pretty much a given worldwide!

Thank you dear @blueeyes8960.

Hive has been a great place for me to share the landscape and cultures of my country for more than a year. While I've been here so far, I've learned a lot as well :)

The time spent with family is very precious. ♥️

I'm looking forward to your entry 🤩
