Respecting, loving and helping the elderly are the traditional virtues of our Chinese nation and the precious spiritual wealth handed down by our ancestors. In our long-standing, profound traditional culture, paying attention to ethics and family harmony is the essence of our cultural tradition and the concrete embodiment of the strong cohesion and affinity of the Chinese nation. In ancient China, there were 24 stories of filial piety, such as "seeking carp on the ice" and "tasting soup and medicine". "I am old, and people are old" has become the criterion of being a man.
Because the elderly are people who have contributed to our society. When they have the ability, they dedicated their youth to our country. Hehuo's mansion was built with their hard work and even their lives. Nowadays, they are too old to work, and the whole society should care about them. People who have the ability should take care of them and let them spend their old age happily. We should learn to care about the old people around us. Respect for the elderly; There are many things we can do: get up in the morning and come back from school, and take the initiative to say hello to our elders; Respect the elders and listen to their words; If there is something delicious, give it to grandparents and parents first; Help grandpa and grandma. Offer your seat to the elderly when you take the bus, and so on.
Respecting the elderly is the traditional virtue of the Chinese nation. Our beloved President Mao Zedong is a model of respecting the elderly. Chairman Mao returned to Shaoshan, Hunan, his hometown after many years' absence. During his short stay, he specially invited the old people from his hometown to dinner. When he made a toast to an old man in his seventies, the old man said, "How dare you, Chairman?" Chairman Mao said, "It is right to respect the elderly and the virtuous." This incident became a much-told story for a while.
"You still came in such a hot day" ... July 12, the temperature was 37℃; Under the leadership of captain Du and vice captain Li Rongfa, all 2 1 members of the ambassador team of Four Seasons Hotel Volkswagen Leasing Company once again came to the home of the 86-year-old Lou Apo and brought heatstroke prevention and cooling supplies. Lou Apo lives alone under the stairs somewhere on Haiphong Road. In addition to a bed, the only activity space in the 3-square-meter shack is only a passage as long as the bed, and eating and drinking Lazar are all within this only 3 square meters. Lou Apo lost her husband in her early years and had no financial resources. She lives on the pension of her husband's former work unit of about 65,438+000 yuan and the relief money issued by the government. A son adopted in his early years has been indifferent to the elderly for many years and has never set foot in his house. At the end of 200 1, under the leadership of Zhuo, secretary of the general party branch of Volkswagen Leasing Company, the Four Seasons League team joined hands with Lou Apo to help the needy people. In the past four years, the Four Seasons League team has sent daily necessities to grandma and televisions to the elderly every year. When grandma is ill, someone will appear beside her. On holidays, everyone cleans and washes the bedding for grandma. The example of Four Seasons Team's help deeply touched grandma's neighborhood committee and Jiangning Road street. They wrote on two banners presented to the public: "I deeply respect the elderly and have new ideas every year."
Leng Xiance, former director of the Bureau of Retired Veteran Cadres of Xiaonan District Committee, spread the sunshine of the Party to the hearts of retired cadres and revolutionary veterans with party member's strong party spirit and broad and selfless mind, and silently contributed another more noble "filial piety".
Liu Qiming, 1927 The old Red Army who participated in the revolution suffered from cor pulmonale for a long time. Every time he gets sick, whether it's in the middle of the night or windy or rainy, he always carries the old man to the car and enters the ward. That year, Liu Qiming was seriously ill in hospital. He waited in the ward for a day and a night. Suddenly, the old man's throat was blocked with phlegm and he couldn't breathe. Seeing that all the old comrades who risked their lives for the revolution were in danger, Leng Xiance was extremely anxious. He quickly asked the doctor to bring a rubber tube, put one end in the old man's mouth and the other end in his mouth, and sucked it out little by little. Everyone present was moved to tears. "Not relatives, better than relatives!" This is the veteran cadres' deep admiration for Leng Xiance.
Huang Juying is 765,438+0 years old in Liling, but she still takes care of many lonely old people in the community who can hardly take care of themselves. Twenty-eight years ago, she received a lonely old man from the countryside, Li Chengde, and played an old man's daughter. By the time she was 60, she recognized an 80-year-old neighbor as her mother. In her seventies, she once again took care of the elderly, including Yang Xiqing. Chairman Mao said: "It is not difficult for a person to do a little good, but it is difficult to do good all his life." It is really appropriate to use this sentence to measure Huang Juying's deeds of respecting and loving the elderly.
China has entered the stage of population aging. It is an important symbol of social civilization and progress to effectively protect the legitimate rights and interests of the elderly, let them spend their happy, happy, peaceful and healthy old age and enjoy the fruits of human social development. Respecting the elderly means respecting the laws of life and social development and respecting history. Parents have children, and children must honor their parents, which is the responsibility of children. The elderly have made great contributions to the cause of revolution and construction. Their wisdom and experience are the precious wealth of the party and the country, and they have become the lifeline of society. The elderly should be respected by the society and need people's care.
Old people are our elders. They have worked hard all their lives, made certain contributions to society and accumulated rich knowledge and experience in long-term practice. Therefore, respecting the elderly is not only a concern and love for the elderly, but also a need to inherit the "wealth" of predecessors. "The old man is a living library", "Every family has an old man, everyone will be old, everyone will respect the old, and society will be better ..."
So I am proud to tell you that the virtue of respecting the old and loving the young is a lamp in the dark; It is a fire in the cold winter; This is spring in the desert; A long drought brings rain. Virtue is actually a warm hand extended when you need help; A fiery heart handed over when you need to talk; When you need care, offer cordial condolences. Only the old people in this world can feel the warmth and beauty of this world; In order to stay away from loneliness, to finish their life journey happily, and to make the whole world full of laughter.
Let's act together to respect, love and help the elderly. This is our unshirkable responsibility.
The wheel of history is rolling forward. Let's hold high the banner of respecting and loving the elderly in the new century, give all our love and filial piety, put aside the selfish concept of "every man for himself, the devil takes the hindmost", carry forward the fine tradition of respecting and respecting the elderly, create good conditions for the elderly to spend their old age safely, and make the world full of sunshine and love!
