Today is Mother’s Day. On this special day, let’s talk about filial piety.[ˈfɪliəl ˈpaɪəti] People often think that filial piety means blindly obeying our parents. But I believe this traditional virtue has a much deeper meaning. True filial piety is not just about imitating our parents’ words and actions. It is about being aware of their shortcomings and making an effort to change them, so that the bad habits in our family stop with us. At the same time, we should also pass on the good qualities of our parents, allowing these bright spots to be carried on from generation to generation within the family. This is the true value of the continuity of life.
To all the mothers out there, Happy Mother’s Day. May the world treat you with the utmost kindness.
今天是母亲节，在这个特别的日子里，想和大家聊聊孝顺。人们常常认为孝顺就是对父母的盲目顺从，但我觉得，孝顺这个传统美德有着更深远的意义。真正的孝顺，不是简单地复制父母的言行，而是要清醒地看到他们身上的不足，并努力去改变，让家族中的不良习性在自己这一代戛然而止。同时，我们也要将父母身上的美好品质传承下去，让这些闪光点在家族中代代相传。而这叶才是生命延续的真正价值所在。
最后祝所有妈妈们母亲节快乐，愿你被世界温柔以待。
