Today is an important day for Chinese. Today is a day full of love.
Today is the fifteenth day in the eighth month in the lunar calendar. It is in the middle of Autumn and it is so-called Mid-Autumn Festival. If you look up to the moon, you can find it most roundish in this month. People wish their family complete like the round moon, so Chinese family reunion in this day.
Even the family can't reunion, they can enjoy the same moon in this time. And their emotions of missing can be known by each other.
It's a love to family and hometown. And if I die, I want myself buried in Taian, Shandong, China, my hometown. And, I am a Chinese forever.
Today, I'm far away from my family. I love you. The moon knows.
I don't think my English can express the meaning of this day exactly. Only Chinese can.
明月几时有，把酒问青天。

明月几时有，把酒问青天。
不知天上宫阙，今夕是何年？
我欲乘风归去，又恐琼楼玉宇， 高处不胜寒。
起舞弄清影，何似在人间！
转朱阁，低绮户，照无眠。
不应有恨，何事长向别时圆？
人有悲欢离合，月有阴晴圆缺， 此事古难全。
但愿人长久，千里共婵娟。
青天有月来几时？ 我今停杯一问之。
人攀明月不可得， 月行却与人相随。
皎如飞镜临丹阙。 绿烟灭尽清辉发。
但见宵从海上来， 宁知晓向云间没？
白兔捣药秋复春， 嫦娥孤栖与谁邻？
今人不见古时月， 今月曾经照古人。
古人今人若流水， 共看明月皆如此。
唯愿当歌对酒时， 月光长照金樽里。
