"The home is the smallest unit of a country, and the country is made up of thousands of families," as a popular song lyrics go. The destiny of a single family is closely related to that of a country. As China celebrates the 69th anniversary of its founding, let's get inspired by President Xi Jinping's views on families and patriotism.

Chinese people should love their family - Stresses the importance of family

Family is the basic cell of society and the first school of our life. No matter how time has changed, the family value, family education and family building must be stressed so that the millions of families become important points for national development, ethnic progress and social harmony.

Parents should instruct their children through word and deed, giving them both knowledge and virtue and practicing what they teach. They should help their children button the first button in their lifetime and take the first step on the ladder of life.

With a history of more than 5,000 years, our nation created a splendid civilization, made remarkable contributions to mankind, and became one of the world's great nations.

Today, to revitalize the Chinese nation, we need to carry forward patriotism.

To love the country, the Chinese people should uphold the leadership of the CPC, the socialist system in China, and socialism with Chinese characteristics developed by the Chinese people under the CPC's leadership.

Patriotism is the core of the ethos of the Chinese nation that is deeply rooted in its people's minds and holds together the unity and solidarity of various ethnic groups in China.

Young people should be loyal to the country and the people, learn the history of the nation, inherit Chinese culture, have national pride and cultural confidence, and closely link their ideals to the future of the nation.

Only by realizing the Chinese dream of national rejuvenation can the dreams of families come true, Xi said, calling on the people to integrate their love for the family with their love for the nation.

We should pool the wisdom and strength of more than 1.3 billion Chinese people in more than 400 million households to strive for the great success of socialism with Chinese characteristics for a new era and realize the Chinese Dream of national rejuvenation.
