Diary of Filial Piety in Ming Dynasty: 800 words

China has a civilization history of 5,000 years, and is known as "the state of etiquette". China people are also famous for their polite style. As a new generation of pupils, we should also learn from tradition, be filial and be grateful.

I remember when I was in grade one, my teacher asked us to recite Disciples Rules. I just dealt with it at the time. Although I know it by heart, I still don't understand its meaning and reason. In the sixth grade, I reopened the dusty Disciples Rules and read filial piety for the first time. Filial piety is the foundation of China culture. For thousands of years, China people have paid attention to "putting all virtues and filial piety first", such as "Wang Xiang lying on the ice as a carp", "Mencius crying as a bamboo shoot", "Huang Tingjian's clothes as his mother" and "Sean's burying his son as his mother", which have profound implications and reflect the good habits of the Chinese nation in honoring parents, respecting the old and loving the young. The characters in these allusions have also become role models for future generations to learn, and these things have increasingly become classics that have been passed down to this day and lasted for a long time.

The short story in Disciples Rules lit up the grateful oil lamp in my heart like a flame. One day after dinner, I solemnly said to my father with a pot of hot water, "Dad, let me wash your feet today!" " "Dad sat down doubtfully. I dipped his feet in hot water and rubbed them gently. Dad's feet have become rough and his heels have worn out thick calluses. Ten toes seem to be tired and deformed, and long nails are still stained with little black mud. I took some hot water with my hand and brushed it on my father's feet. My eyes have become hot: for many years, for me and this family, my father got up early, went out early and came back late, just so that I could go to a good school and have a good job in the future. In the evening, my father will take time to help me with my homework, and then put a pot of hot water on my face and feet. When I fall asleep, my father still has many things to do: washing clothes, reading books, looking up information ... Because of the busy work and the burden of family, my father's face has become thinner and his feet are no longer smooth. Now, I read the sentence "Love me, it's hard to be filial, hate me, it's necessary to be filial" in Disciples Rules, and I learned to be grateful for the virtues of my parents and others. China people's so-called "filial piety" is not reflected in the dribs and drabs of life.

It is purely coincidental that a person who does not know how to be filial to his parents can achieve great things. Because a person will not be grateful, just like losing an important organ in the human body, it is impossible to take a good road; A person who doesn't know etiquette stumbles on the road of life, and the final price is huge. Therefore, politeness and gratitude are an important part of our life, which controls our success or failure.

Disciples Rules tells us that since filial piety is rooted in the spiritual core of China culture, it not only exists in ancient philosophy and ancient behavior. She is also deeply hidden in the soul of China people, and is valued and carried forward with the development of science and technology. Therefore, as a new generation of primary school students, we should understand the artistic conception of Disciples Rules, learn traditions, be filial to our parents, be grateful, know manners, and let the warm current of gratitude surge in our hearts.
