Tet – The mark of moments of reunion
Tet Nguyen Dan is not only the biggest holiday of the year but also the time for everyone to return to their family, where their parents are waiting, family meals, Tet gifts, and warm smiles. But when life is busy, do you have enough time to gather and bond with your loved ones, especially when your parents are getting older?
Tet reunion filled with emotions of family reunion
1/ “I'm home, mom!”
Minh, a son living far from home in Ho Chi Minh City, has been unable to return home for Tet for three consecutive years due to work. This year, he decided to spend the entire Tet holiday returning home. He shared: “This is the first time I have seen my mother age so much. Her skin is wrinkled, her hair is grayer, but her eyes still light up when she sees me entering the house. That is when I realized that time with my parents really does not wait.”
2/ “No one is missing during Tet meal” – Tet reunion
Lan’s family in Hanoi has gone through a year of turmoil when her father was hospitalized for heart disease. But thanks to the love and care of the whole family, this year’s Tet, the old man is healthy and sits at the same table with his children and grandchildren. Lan said: “This Tet is the first time my family feels truly fulfilled. It’s not the food on the table, but the presence of everyone.”

Time is the most precious Tet gift for family.
There are many occasions in a year, but only Tet is the time when you can truly devote yourself to your family. Waiting for busyness and personal plans makes you forget the sacred value of family. Parents do not need lavish Tet gifts. However, what they need is the presence of you - the child they always wait for.
Let each trip back to your hometown not only be a physical journey, but also a journey of love, so that each Tet meal is never without people.
