Fireplace Culture

In the long history of human development, the contribution of fire is enormous. If there is no life on Earth without water, then there would be no humanity today without fire. Fire brings warmth to people, freeing them from the era of eating raw food and drinking blood, and allowing them to appreciate the deliciousness of cooked food. In the winter season, people no longer need to cover themselves with layers of weeds. Fire has gradually led humans to develop habits of cooking and heating, enhancing their physical fitness, prolonging their lifespan, and developing their brains. With fire, people's living environment has greatly improved, and their living areas have gradually expanded. So in a sense, humans are products of fire. If water is the mother of humanity, then fire is the father of humanity. The difference between humans and animals lies in their ability to create, control, and enjoy fire. People and fire are inseparable. Fire gives people a sense of security and warmth, and people develop and sublimate from it. Whether it is the Chariots of the East or Prometheus of the West, those who bring fire and power to humanity are admired by people for eternity.
On the other hand, fire is a boundary between good and evil. Kind animals love fire, evil animals hate fire. People who love sunshine and yearn for brightness are often kind; People who fear flames and indulge in darkness are often evil. For example, a cat, even a lazy cat, likes to doze off by the furnace, while a mouse is most afraid of flames. Sunshine people like flames and enjoy the day; Dark people like the dark night, just like thieves and robbers who will give way to homes with fireworks. The legendary demons and monsters are even more afraid of fireplaces, and Santa Claus sends Christmas gifts to thousands of households through the chimney of fireplaces.
