The crowded streets, people from all over flock to join the bustling crowd, with radiant, smiling faces, red flags with yellow stars everywhere. All bring the atmosphere of the great national festival. A gray-haired old man took his grandchild to see an exhibition of the country's 80 years of achievements and told his grandchild: "In the past, you went to war and suffered, how could you dream of a day when the whole country was at peace, the country was still together? Now seeing the scene of such a powerful and proud army and equipment, he feels very proud and moved.
Some students sitting on the sidewalk waiting from night until morning to watch the parade laughing said: "I feel tired at night studying for the exam, but staying up all night waiting for the parade makes me very excited, A80". The motorbike taxi driver said: "I've probably only seen this scene once in my life". The group of photographers from far away province told each other that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, you have to take good photos to get a set of photos for life!
Previewing, rehearsals, festival nights, concerts... are eagerly awaited, eagerly awaited and when they take place, everything bursts into endless joy.
People shouted, waved flags, and recorded the moment with cameras and phones. But more importantly, it is the memory that is deeply imprinted in the heart. Everyone clearly sees in the forward footsteps of their ancestors who passed through war, in the heroic melody of the days when the nation overcame countless hardships, with the blood and bones sacrificed to have today peace and strength.
On sleepless nights, no one complains. They skip meals and sleep in exchange for shared pride. Then tomorrow, the echoes of that sleepless night will still resonate forever. It is not just an event, but a reminder of strength, discipline and above all, of the belief that this country has, is and will steadily step into the future in a brilliant new era.
