Faith is like a rock, ideal is greater than the sky

2016Year10month21On the 6442_6463th day, General Secretary Xi Jinping issued a statement commemorating the victory of the Red Army’s Long March80Anniversary speech. I carefully studied the speech today, recalled its contents, associated the Long March story, and experienced the Long March spirit, which shocked the soul and inspired people to forge ahead. I would like to talk about three points of experience:

First, the spirit of the Long March is an eternal monument in our hearts. The Chinese Workers' and Peasants' Red Army fought bloody battles on the Xiangjiang River, crossed the Chishui River four times, captured the Luding Bridge, captured Lazikou, climbed over Jiajin Mountain, and crossed the grassland... Each of these unforgettable and tear-jerking tragic scenes always appear in my mind. The Red Army soldiers relied on their own legs and lasted more than a year, fighting in 11 provinces, spanning 25,000 miles, and finally completed the long journey. The famous American journalist Harrison Salisbury wrote in his "The Long March - An Unheard Story" that "even the great writer Shakespeare could not write such a vast story." Therefore, I often educate my children and students: whether they are suffering, think about twenty-five thousand; whether they are tired, think about the revolutionary veterans. As a descendant of revolutionary cadres, I was often taught by my father who participated in revolutionary work before liberation when I was a child: Regardless of whether the Cultural Revolution was right or wrong, we must study hard, always remember the history of struggle of our predecessors, and always learn from the fighting spirit of our predecessors. Every time I talk about the Long March in class, I tell my students: The spirit of the Long March is an eternal monument in our hearts.

Second, the Long March is a manifesto, the Long March is a propaganda team, and the Long March is a seeder. On the Long March, touching and touching stories happened one after another. The story of "A Bag of Dry Food" tells the story of a137569_7791

Third, we must be inspired by the spirit of the Long March and actively participate in the new Long March to realize the "Two Centenaries" of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation and work hard. Just as General Secretary Xi Jinping commemorated the victory of the Red Army’s Long March80As pointed out in the speech at the annual meeting: "If a person does not have spirit, he will not stand, and if a country does not have spirit, it will not be strong. The spirit is the soul that a nation relies on for its long-term survival. Only when the spirit reaches a certain height can the nation stand firm and move forward bravely in the torrent of history." Indeed, today's China is different80In China of 20 years ago, it was impossible for every Communist Party member to climb a snow-capped mountain or cross a meadow. However, the spirit of climbing a snow-capped mountain and crossing a meadow cannot be lost. Communists must put hardship before enjoyment, put more emphasis on reality, boldly innovate, take the overall situation into consideration, and work hard to achieve success.

Fourth, we must internalize the spirit of the Long March into our hearts and externalize it into our actions. General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out: "The spirit of the great Long March, as an important part of the red gene and spiritual genealogy of the Chinese Communists, has been deeply integrated into the blood and soul of the Chinese nation, becoming a rich nourishment of the core socialist values, and a powerful spiritual power that inspires and inspires the Chinese people to constantly overcome difficulties and move from victory to victory." I believe that the spirit of the Long March is the eternal spirit of the Chinese Communist Party and an immortal soul. Although the Long March has become history, the spirit of the Long March will last forever. We encountered countless hardships and hardships on the Long March, but we still face difficulties of one kind or another in our work today. As a Communist, if you don’t even know or care about the spirit of the Long March, how can you talk about serving the people, talking about career ideals, and talking about national prosperity? But the spirit of the Long March is down-to-earth and not too ambitious. As a teacher, if you don’t work hard to do a good job in teaching and scientific research, the Long March spirit will undoubtedly be empty talk.

Fifth, carrying forward the spirit of the Long March is the premise and foundation for maintaining self-confidence in the path, theory, system and culture of socialism with Chinese characteristics. The purpose of the Long March of the Red Army soldiers was to establish a new China and to make the Chinese people independent and prosperous. The reason why the Red Army soldiers were able to complete the Long March was because they had ideals and beliefs in their hearts. General Secretary Xi Jinping emphasized: “The victory of the Long March has inspired us: if we have faith in our hearts, we have strength on our feet; without unbreakable ideals and beliefs, and without the strong support of lofty ideals and beliefs, it is unimaginable to achieve victory in the Long March. "In general, the spirit of the Long March is to insist that the interests of the people are above all else, and to firmly believe in revolutionary ideals and beliefs above all else; the spirit of the Long March is to take into account the overall situation, depend on the people for life and death, share weal and woe, and work hard; the spirit of the Long March is for the prosperity of the country and the happiness of the people. The spirit of struggle for the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. Today, we carry forward the spirit of the Long March, still uphold the ideals and beliefs of communism, inherit the indomitable revolutionary will of the Red Army soldiers, always maintain the spirit of struggle and innocence, grasp the direction of the times and gather the strength to move forward.

In short, I am very grateful to General Secretary Xi Jinping for commemorating the victory of the Red Army’s Long March80My feelings about learning from the speech at the annual meeting were summarized in one sentence: Faith is like a rock, and ideals are greater than the sky. Let us always be inspired by the spirit of the Long March, draw spiritual nourishment from the revolutionary martyrs, never forget our original aspirations, actively participate in the great cause of China's rise, and write a new history of building a moderately prosperous society.
