Why be patriotic?
In short, the country raised you. This is like asking why we should love our parents. Because your parents gave birth to you and raised you, you are irrevocably related to them. Similarly, people and countries are also naturally related by blood. You were born and raised in this country, and the country has endowed you with specific national inheritance, life foundation, social relations, values and cultural accomplishment. Your body and mind are shaped by the country. National character has been deeply melted in your blood. The reputation and interests of the country are closely linked with yours. So you and your motherland have both emotional dependence and the same interests. This is a natural and blood-related reason for our patriotism. People must love their parents, which is called filial piety; One must love one's motherland, which is called loyalty. The word "loyalty and filial piety" is the basic morality of human beings and the return of human beings to their mothers, that is, their parents and the motherland. This is the law of nature, and it is also the highest and lowest moral standard at the level of justice and conscience. No matter which nationality, it is no exception. Crows feed back, lambs kneel and breastfeed, and animals are natural. Anyone here? So we have a love for our country, which we can't give up and forget, and will accompany me all my life. This is the first reason for patriotism, a natural and indisputable reason.

The second reason is that since you are in junior high school, you must serve the country and care about this "home". Fang Zhimin saw that the motherland was poor and weak, and was bullied by a strong enemy. He said in "Lovely China": "(Mom) cried very sadly! She seems to be cursing: Is my 40 million children born in vain? " What's the use of a citizen if he is unpatriotic? If so, how can this country survive? The country is the home of all of us and the big family of the nation, and it also needs constant maintenance and development. Internally, the prosperity and development of the motherland depends on the hard work of children, such as bees making honey, such as bird's nest, and there can be no pause. Externally, the motherland must be defended. As one of the countries in the world, a country is bound to have various conflicts and competitions of interests, even bullying and aggression. The independence, development and prosperity of any country depend on the unity and dedication of all citizens, and every citizen has the obligation to contribute to it. This is the second reason for patriotism. Anyone who goes to middle school but ignores the national luck is the biggest unfaithfulness and injustice. Although there are traitors and scum in various historical periods, these people are always spurned.
