Patriotism has different characteristics in different times, but as a just and cohesive force, it comes down in one continuous line from ancient times to modern times. During the revolutionary period, a large number of outstanding sons and daughters shed their blood for the birth of New China and wrote magnificent poems. In the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea and the socialist construction, many revolutionary martyrs gave their lives for the party and the people. Nowadays, as contemporary college students, we must take the socialist concept of honor and disgrace of "eight honors and eight disgraces" as the guiding ideology, carry forward the spirit of patriotism and be a loyal patriot in a down-to-earth manner. So how to be a loyal patriot?
First, cultivate national pride and pride.
To cultivate national self-esteem and pride, we must first consciously safeguard the honor and dignity of the motherland. Without national pride and cherishing the independence of one's own nation, a country cannot be strong. National pride and pride are not innate, but the result of national culture, social education and personal practice.
To establish national self-esteem and pride, we must learn and be familiar with national history and culture, master the essence of national history and culture, fully understand the road our country and nation have taken, establish national self-esteem and pride, and actively participate in social practice. As long as we truly feel the magnificence of the motherland's mountains and rivers, the hard work of the people, the rich culture and the long history, and the great achievements made in revolution, construction and reform, national pride and pride will arise spontaneously, and this feeling will take root in the depths of our souls and firmly establish the value orientation of being the most loyal patriot.
Two. Promote national unity and the reunification of the motherland
In the long historical development of the Chinese nation, it has always been the people's wish to establish a unified multi-ethnic country and make the Chinese family live in harmony. It is the common aspiration of Chinese people at home and abroad to solve the problem of Taiwan Province Province and realize the complete reunification of the motherland, and it is also the fundamental interest of the Chinese nation. In order to realize the reunification of the motherland at an early date, the people of the Communist Party of China (CPC) and China have made unremitting efforts. No matter how the international situation changes, the determination and confidence of the Chinese nation to achieve national reunification are unshakable.
Contemporary college students are the pillars to promote national unity and complete the great cause of the motherland's reunification in the future. Consciously be a model for promoting national unity and the reunification of the motherland, and resolutely fight against all thoughts and behaviors that undermine national unity and the reunification of the motherland. We should study hard and master the principles, policies and relevant laws formulated by the party and the government to strengthen national unity and realize national reunification, strive to increase our talents, and make our own contributions to creating a new situation of common struggle and prosperity for people of all ethnic groups in an all-round way.
Third, it is our duty to revitalize China.
"Revitalize China, Start with Me" is a loud slogan shouted by college students in the early days of reform and opening up. This slogan inspires countless young students to devote themselves to the modernization of the motherland and make contributions in their respective jobs. In the new historical period, college students should continue to take the rejuvenation of China as their own responsibility, strive to realize their ambition to serve the country, increase their talents in building the country, and practice their patriotic trip. Under different historical conditions, people often serve the motherland in different ways. There are many ways for contemporary college students to serve the motherland, and the road is at their feet. The key is to move forward in a down-to-earth manner.
In a word, no matter how we serve the motherland, we must study hard and master the skills of serving the motherland. Only by combining one's true talent and practical learning with one's ambition to serve the country and persisting in practice can one make due contributions to the country and the nation and realize the life pursuit of being a loyal patriot.
