I just love this time of year in China - Having never experienced it before - how wonderful to see all the people enjoying them selves to the fullest. Even in the downtrodden, poor and squalid conditions, found in rural China where i currently live. Seeing everyone participating in such a huge communal event like Spring festival is not only interesting but inspiring. I took advantage of the accessibility of fireworks and spent RMB100 to distribute amongst the children and families I come accross over the festival holiday. I remember how much as a young child i loved fireworks; and in my memory i recall pleasure they brought me, and with truth thy still do. Before western society - somewhere between the cash-cow of public liability, *** retentiveness and relentless pursuit to ban anything that brings the slightest amount of fun. They were no more... The little boy in the picture was with his mother looking at the firework display, with wide eyes and eager smile. from what i could see they could only afford him one small packet. I couldn't help myself - I brought him a great big box of rockets. Their smiles were priceless... B
