Don’t forget, though, that the celebration should not just be centered on food and merriment. It should also encourage you to be more hopeful about the coming months.
More importantly, don’t let your guard down as you celebrate the Lunar New Year with your family and friends. Observe social distancing. Keep the celebration small. Sanitize. And of course, get yourself vaccinated.
