Vietnamese Women's Day is an occasion for men to express their feelings and honor the women they love. Women also have their own wishes on this special occasion.
Ms. Nguyen Thi Hien (58 years old, Thanh Xuan, Hanoi) said: "October 20 is like a normal day in my life. The only difference is that my two married daughters will come to my house for a family meal. I do not expect expensive gifts, nor do I hope for lavish parties.
For me, healthy, happy children who care for their parents are the greatest and most sincere gifts. A warm, cozy family meal cooked by my husband is a happy moment that nurtures our love."
Like Ms. Hien, many parents want to have a meal together with their children. This is a gift with great spiritual meaning for mothers and wives.
Not only middle-aged women, young people are also gradually changing their views and thoughts.
Today's Gen Y and Gen Z don't pay too much attention to expensive gifts. They value the value that gifts bring.
Duong Huyen (25 years old, office worker, Hanoi) said: “I am not too impatient when Vietnamese Women's Day October 20 is approaching. Like every year, I have a little expectation for the surprises that my male colleagues will make. Having gifts is fun, but not having any is also okay, the important thing is the spirit and joy in the group.
For myself, on holidays, I always want to arrange free time to return to my hometown with my parents and family. However, due to the nature of my work, I can only send my best wishes to my mother along with a small gift. Although the gift is not expensive, it is my heart and affection for the most important woman in my life."
Ms. Ngo Thuy Tuyen (28 years old, working in Ho Chi Minh City) believes that every woman wants to be remembered and given special favor by others.
"Every year, I receive flowers and gifts from colleagues and friends. Sometimes I also have small parties. But the most memorable moment for me is the moment when I see my partner come home with a surprise for me. A special presence, a greeting with a small gift carefully wrapped, just that makes me very happy.
Whether it is a material or spiritual gift, all are precious. It can be cooking a delicious meal, picking each other up from work, caring in daily life or listening and understanding the hardships of women...", Ms. Tuyen confided.
Not only on Vietnamese Women's Day October 20, let's give the best things to the important women in our lives. The holiday is just a reminder for us to remember and honor women.
It is not an obligation or responsibility but an affection and respect that comes from within, from sincerity.
