I am a traditional person.

? I was born in an ordinary worker's family. From my grandfather to my father, I work in civil engineering. Theoretically, I should follow in my father's footsteps, but my father didn't agree. My father thinks that people in this line of work can't take care of their families because they have been away from home for many years. Indeed, it is also true. When I was a child, my father was not always by my side. Although I don't lack fatherly love, I really don't feel the strict education and generous shoulders I deserve.

? As long as I can remember, I spent most of my childhood at my grandfather's house. Perhaps because I am a great-grandson, my grandfather's doting on me will never be forgotten. Although I have been away for more than 20 years, my relatives occasionally say that I have something from my grandfather.

? Compared with grandpa, I spend less time with him, and he never shows the love that his elders should have for their grandchildren. In my impression, my grandfather is a traditional man, who doesn't read much and is very old-fashioned, but he has his own principles of dealing with people, not striving for fame, not seeking profit, and being uncorrupted. Amy is very diligent. I have hardly seen me buy new clothes. My clothes are worn out and have been mended for three years. I am definitely a qualified party member. Grandpa attaches great importance to etiquette, especially table manners, such as eating without opening his mouth, pointing at others with chopsticks, pouring tea for seven minutes and eating for eight minutes. What we can't tolerate most is whether it is big or small. In our opinion, "respecting the old and loving the young" is very important. Someone once said to me, "People can be poor, but they can't lose their principles and rules." At that time, they were too young to understand, but they also deeply influenced me. Looking back now, the old man said a lot of words of great wisdom.

? I didn't receive free-range education since I was a child. When I was very young, my parents insisted on the educational concept of "strict father gives birth to a dutiful son, and a loving mother gives birth to many children". Since I was born, my mother gave up her job for various reasons and devoted herself to my education and training. From kindergarten to primary school to middle school, many students should know that my mother's education is almost "strict". My mother scrimps and saves, and will give me the best, but mainly in my studies. My mother never uses me to buy me toys. There is a toy store in front of my house. There are many toys that little boys like, such as "Armored Xiaobao" and "Four-wheel drive", but I have never owned them, and I have never dared to tell my mother, even if I really want them. When I was a child, many clothes were returned to me by my cousin. I didn't feel ashamed to wear them before. In fact, up to now, many of my clothes, including bags, are seven or eight years old. Maybe I complained about my mother in my heart during the rebellious period, but I didn't know that my mother's education method was correct until I grew up and walked out of society.

? My mother's influence on me is more her behavior. Unlike my grandfather's emphasis on the five permanent members, my mother pays more attention to daily etiquette and rules.

? Probably when I was five or six years old, one day my grandmother took me to buy food and passed by the shop opened by my mother's classmate's house. It's mom, the classmate's mom who looks after the store. Old people may also like children, so they say hello to me. As for me, I was probably shy when I was a child, so I pretended not to hear. Later, my mother knew about it and gave me a strict education, so that I should say hello to the elders I knew. Even if people you don't know say hello, respond politely. People offer you help, even if you don't lift a finger, you should say thank you. This is traditional etiquette. Since then, "Hello" and "Thank you" have been spoken frequently, and I have great respect for the elderly. Perhaps this is one of the reasons why I have always had an elder relationship since I entered the society.

? Later, when I grew up, my mother did not educate me in detail. She just told me repeatedly that we should be "down-to-earth", "pragmatic" and "discard the false and retain the true" in our life and work. Growing up in this environment, I have been asking for the word "truth". There are two things I can't do: "I can't make quick money and I can't play legal ball." So for a long time, I couldn't get any sand in my eyes. The question of principle was how to do it. So I offended many people, suffered a lot and touched many nails. But it's all worth it. I can experience it before I am 30, so I can learn not to be crazy before I am 30. I think it is my wealth.

? Just as Degang Guo described himself in the program, I am also a nobody at heart. I used to be grumpy or uncomfortable for a long time because of someone else's words, actions and even a look. To put it bluntly, I care too much about what others think. But slowly, I stepped out of the campus for a few years and experienced some people and things, some gossip, some unwarranted accusations and some crimes. But don't care too much about other people's comments, don't indulge in other people's praise, and don't get lost in the anger brought by others. But do good deeds, the future of Mo Wen, and be yourself, and these characters will stand. What can other people's red eyes and white eyes do to you? The eyes of the masses are discerning.

? Slowly, I will not use my own standards to ask others. I will form my own code of conduct on the basis of traditional morality, rules and concepts, combined with the needs of the development of modern society, to demand and restrain myself and control my desires. Slowly, I also realized that the real society is too impetuous and lacks rationality in life, life, making money, marriage and so on. Although the water is pure, there are no fish. Perhaps, under the constraints of tradition, I lack fair-weather friends, I can't make a lot of money, and I won't find a life partner who fits my soul so quickly. But at least, I know what I am doing, what I can do and what I should do. I hope the people I meet in the rest of my life are reliable, quality and not impetuous.

? I am a traditional person, and I will persist in inheritance and innovation on the basis of tradition. I hope these futures will become my family style and be passed down from generation to generation. I firmly believe that any road away from cultural inheritance will not go far. Keeping integrity and bringing forth the new can be peaceful and far-reaching.
