Summarize: "filial piety" is the essence of traditional Chinese culture. The "twenty-four filial piety chart", is Mr. Chen Shaomei 41 years of age when the masterpiece, its subject matter is rare, elegant ink and brushwork, coloring, extraordinary, so it is called a national treasure. The world can not wait for the most things, I personally think should be filial piety. In our country, originally is "hundred good filial piety first", "twenty-four filial piety" has always been recited for the people of the country, filial piety is praised by people. In "Water Margin", the fake Li Kui met the real Li Kui, who was killed without pardon, but a sentence of "there is an 80-year-old mother at home" left him with a life. Two days ago, there was a TV report about an ungrateful son who beat his father and cursed his mother, forcing his parents to find it difficult to survive, and then he killed him by accident. During the court hearing of the case, the surrounding neighbors have jointly petitioned the court to forgive the two elderly, unanimously condemned the unworthy son's evil deeds. The human heart is a pole scale, the fixed star is "filial piety". Some people do not disapprove of filial piety, but think filial piety can wait a while, slow down. For example, when you go to school and study, that your parents are young and strong, earn money for their children should be books, do not need to children filial piety; to work, that parents are not sick and carefree, personal marriage and children to pull the family, can not take care of filial piety; people to the middle-aged, children have not yet become a family, their own inside and outside the hard work, there is no opportunity to filial piety; turn the eyes of half a hundred years old, their temples also stained with gray frost, legs and feet are slow, has no ability to filial piety again 。。。。。。 So filial piety cannot wait. I have seen many people in the old man passed away after the heartbreaking, chest beating, self-criticism in the old man alive did not how how, etc., a look of pain and not want to live. Parents died before you know filial piety, it is really late, what did you do earlier? As a young boy, help your parents wipe the table and sweep the floor, take the slippers and pour a cup of water, I think this is filial piety; grown-ups, married and have children, and should realize the grace of parental upbringing, even if the parents are healthy and not sick at this time, but also should bring their wives and children often go home to visit, which is also filial piety. Filial piety is filial piety, originally there is no axiom to speak. Filial piety is not difficult to do, let the old man happy, happy is filial piety. Filial piety can not wait, should always hold, lifelong practice. Have you done it?
