For a peaceful 'honeymoon month'

(Baonghean) - According to folk beliefs, December is called "the month of honey"; "honey" means to check, "honey" means to be careful, cautious, reminding everyone during this time to be careful in all aspects of life. During this time, the reality of life shows that people are often busy and hurried with public and private matters.

This is the "peak" time of the year in many aspects, especially the movement of people and goods. It is also the time when agencies and groups organize conferences, summaries, and parties; people, officials, and civil servants often have to rush to complete the final tasks of the year, leading to negligence, loss of vigilance, and carelessness, leading to unfortunate incidents such as loss, traffic accidents, or fires...

On the other hand, criminals take advantage of the "honeymoon month" to increase activities that are harmful to society. Therefore, the biggest concern for managers and authorities, and also the concern of each family and each person during Tet, is the safety and security of the community and individuals.

For many days now, in provinces and cities across the country, authorities at all levels have increased forces, implemented measures to ensure security, social order and safety, and actively patrolled, controlled, and fought against all types of crimes.

However, to truly maintain social order, safety and security, propaganda work needs to be further promoted to raise people's awareness, voluntarily comply with the law, and at the same time increase vigilance, proactively prevent and fight against crime.

In the field of transportation, in order to meet the increased demand for travel and freight transport during this time, authorities need to have scientific and reasonable management measures, mobilize forces and means of the State and other economic sectors to provide full, fast, convenient and safe services.

In residential areas, the management of bad elements in the area needs to be closely monitored, regularly propagandized, mobilized, and reminded to comply with the law. At the same time, due to the fact that most of these elements have difficult living conditions, authorities at all levels, organizations, and unions need to pay attention to care for, help, visit, give gifts, support them in finding jobs, and resolve those difficulties; and if possible, mobilize them to participate in ensuring social order and safety in residential areas.

For agencies, units and enterprises, it is necessary to strengthen measures to protect, prevent and fight fires and explosions; organize on-duty forces, have effective response plans to incidents occurring in their units, and be ready to participate with the authorities and functional agencies in performing this task when requested.

For each person, "the month of honey" is an important and meaningful time. It is the end of a lunar year, preparing to enter the new year with many cherished plans and personal projects; it is the days to rest, return to reunite or travel somewhere with family. The mood is excited mixed with anxiety, regret and sometimes remorse for the things that were not good in the past year, because there will certainly be plans and wishes that have not been achieved...

The above things, combined with the increased intensity of work and life, make us tired, lose focus, leading to negligence, loss of self-control, and unwanted incidents. Therefore, we need to understand clearly, be alert, and handle public and private matters scientifically and reasonably.

What needs to be done first, what needs to be done later, what can't be done yet, find the cause, rearrange everything, adjust plans, change goals, find other ways to complete it next year, don't rush to do it at all costs leading to failure and negative effects on your life as well as the people involved. In personal relationships, it is necessary to resolve harmoniously, don't let competing interests cause conflicts.

People treating each other with kindness and love will help resolve incidents and uncertainties in life, not only in the "honey month" but also throughout the year and life, bringing peace.
