王和生:书写“新孝侄故事”

Wang Hesheng:A Story of New-type Filial Piety Between Aunt and Nephew

俗语有云"忘八端",其中"八端"意指"孝、悌、忠、信、礼、义、廉、耻",其之所为人之根本,忘记了这"八端"也就是忘了做人根本。而作为"八端"之首的"孝",是情感基础与价值动源,也是道德的最高层面。人之行,孝当先。"孝"这个字早已深埋于我们的灵魂之中,指导着我们的一言一行。在培育和践行社会主义核心价值观过程中,中华孝道文化的传承非常重要。济南,是一个具有尊老、敬老、爱老、助老悠久历史的文明城市,"百善孝为先"是这座城市一直秉持的信念。每个人都有老去的一天,每个也都渴望在耄耋之年子孙绕膝。孝文化更深层的意蕴在于"老吾老,以及人之老",我们在孝敬自己的父母的同时,同样应该用孝心关注身边的老人。
