In our daily lives, the warmth of a mother's care is evident in every word and action, deserving praise and gratitude from each of us.

From enduring the pain of childbirth to teaching us how to speak and being our pillar of support when we stumble or fall, mothers play an irreplaceable role in our lives. They encourage us to strive forward, shield us from life's storms, and never give up on us. Despite giving so much, mothers rarely ask for anything in return. As time passes, they age gracefully. Their silver hair is a testament to a lifetime of sacrifice for their children's growth.

How can we repay our mothers for their tireless efforts? How can we repay their profound and boundless love? How can a blade of grass repay the splendor of spring? As children, the best way we can show our appreciation is by cherishing our time, working hard, pursuing our dreams, and living up to our parents' expectations. The equally important thing is always to be grateful, considerate, and caring. Gratitude should not just be a feeling in our hearts but should also be reflected in our actions.

Labor is the source of all happiness. Happiness is not a given existence but the result of labor. Humans rely on labor not only to meet basic survival needs but also to create and accumulate social wealth. We also fundamentally realize the essence of human freedom through labor. Daily life continues through labor, and a better life depends on diligent and efficient labor. Only through labor can a person affirm their strength and potential, realize their value, and experience true happiness. 

Gratitude is an expression of love, conscience, and responsibility. "Filial piety comes first among all good deeds." Being grateful to our parents who raised and nurtured us is a fundamental virtue. But gratitude shouldn't stop there; we should also be thankful for everything in life — our country, our school, our teachers, our classmates, and life itself…… 

 May the spirit of gratitude reside in our hearts forever!
