I think having a sense of ceremony is really important because it makes life feel special. Even small rituals, like celebrating a friend's birthday, having a weekend breakfast routine, or marking personal achievements, give us a chance to pause and appreciate the moment. Ceremonies help us connect with others and create memories that last. They also give life a sense of rhythm and meaning, reminding us to celebrate milestones instead of rushing through everything. Honestly, even tiny gestures, like lighting a candle or sharing a special meal, can make everyday life feel more meaningful and joyful.

Yesterday I came across a video with a comment that read: "She says she doesn't care about money, she cares about the sense of ceremony—but every step of that ceremony costs money." My first reaction upon seeing this comment was to disagree.

Nowadays, people have gradually transformed the sense of ceremony into a huge bouquet of 999 red roses, a car full of flowers, an expensive bottle of perfume, a handbag costing over a hundred thousand yuan, or a lavish Western-style dinner.

What exactly is the sense of ceremony in a relationship?

I say ceremony can exist in any moment. It doesn't need to be measured by money. Ceremony is picking a small bouquet of pretty wildflowers by the roadside when you go to see her; it can be a little handmade gift you carefully prepare for her on an ordinary day;

It could be the companionship of meeting in person after a long-distance separation, or the little surprises in everyday life—a hotpot meal, a tube of lipstick, a bouquet of flowers, a small birthday cake. These don't require much money, yet they are gifts you've thoughtfully prepared for me.

Or it could be using holidays as an excuse to express affection on ordinary days—doing what you can, giving gifts within your means. These gestures let the other person feel your deep love. And these moments are enough that, whenever conflicts arise in a relationship, remembering these beautiful times fosters understanding and forgiveness. Because I know that gifts prepared with care are built on the foundation of your love for me.

The meaning of gifts lies not in creating surprises, but in telling the other person, "I always have you in my thoughts."

Why does life need a sense of ritual? I believe it prevents "living" from becoming mere "survival."

Flowers received on holidays aren't just flowers—they're gifts. Flowers received on ordinary days are what we truly call flowers.

What matters isn't the flowers themselves, but the ritual, the feeling of being remembered, the romance, the sense of being cherished.

Rituals are redemption in the mundane.

Repeating the same routines day after day is tedious and unremarkable. But if we choose to infuse life with ritual, even the most ordinary existence can radiate a unique brilliance.

Without essential rituals, life's precious moments slip away easily, fading into oblivion over time.

Let me give you an example. Why do you think you have to celebrate your girlfriend's birthday? And why she has to scold you when you forget about it? What she really wants is not expensive gifts or anything else. She only wants to know you still love her and care about important days of her. So that's the origin of sense of ceremony: people long for love and care from others.

Yes, ritual sense is really important for life.

Those small, intentional acts—like making a cup of tea slowly in the morning, celebrating little achievements, or having a weekly family dinner—don't just fill time.

They turn ordinary days into memorable ones, bring comfort in chaos, and remind us to cherish the present. Rituals give life structure and warmth, making even simple moments feel meaningful and precious.

In my view, "sense of ceremony" are not essential to life, but they are definitely a plus. They don't have to be overly complicated; it could be a cup of warm milk before bed, a fixed reading time every Sunday, or a greeting on a special day. The essence is to give ordinary days a "small mark", helping us slow down, perceive the beauty of the present, and also providing an outlet for emotions.

I think “sense of ceremony” is very important.
First of all，it is an affirmation of my own efforts. No matter what the outcome is，the efforts made during the period are worth celebrating. You should realize that what matters is not the outcome，but the courage to finish it.
Second，it represents the enthusiasm for life. Your emphasis on sense of ceremony symbolizes the abundance in you life. You can celebrate your birthday，your anniversary with someone and anything you put something meaningful in it. Having sense of ceremony，you can feel the life is vital and full of energy.
Moreover，the celebration should be moderate. The way that you choose to celebrate must within your ability. If it is beyond your ability，you will feel exhausted instead of abundant.
