Our Family Creed(新东方美文)
Our Family Creed
Our Family CreedThe Things That Make Life Most Worth LivingBy John D. Rockefeller, JrThey are the principles on which my wife and I have tried to bring up our family. They are the principles in which my father believed and by which he governed his life. They are the principles, many of them, which I learned at my mother's knee.They point the way to usefulness and happiness in life, to courage and peace in death.If they mean to you what they mean to me, they may perhaps be helpful also to our sons for their guidance and inspiration.Let me state them:I believe in the supreme worth of the individual and in his right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.I believe that every right implies a responsibility; every opportunity, an obligation; every possession, a duty.I believe that the law was made for man and not man for the law; that government is the servant of the people and not their master.I believe in the dignity of labor, whether with head or hand; that the world owes no man a living but that it owes every man an opportunity to make a living.I believe that thrift is essential to well ordered living and that economy is a prime requisite of a sound financial structure, whether in government, business or personal affairs.I believe that truth and justice are fundamental to an enduring social order.I believe in the sacredness of a promise, that a man's word should be as good as his bond, that character-not wealth or power or position -is of supreme worth.I believe that the rendering of useful service is the common duty of mankind and that only in the purifying fire of sacrifice is the dross of selfishness consumed and the greatness of the human soul set free.I believe in an all-wise and all-loving God, named by whatever name, and that the individual's highest fulfillment, greatest happiness and widest usefulness are to be found in living in harmony with His will.I believe that love is the greatest thing in the world; that it alone can overcome hate; that right can and will triumph over might.These are the principles, however formulated, for which all good men and women throughout the world, irrespective of race or creed, education, social position or occupation, are standing, and for which many of them are suffering and dying.These are the principles upon which alone a new world recognizing the brotherhood of man and the fatherhood of God can be established.。

This often exists in a man of 60 more than a boy of 20. Nobody grows old merely by a number of years. We grow old by deserting our ideals.Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul. Worry, fear, self-distrust bows the heart and turns the spirit back to dust.Whether 60 or 16, there is in every human being‟s heart the lure of wonders, the unfai ling appetite for what‟s next and the joy of the game of living. In the center of your heart and my heart, there is a wireless station; so long as it receives messages of beauty, hope, courage and power from man and from the infinite, so long as you are young.When your aerials are down, and your spirit is covered with snows of cynicism and the ice of pessimism, then you‟ve grown old, even at 20; but as long as your aerials are up, to catch waves of optimism, there‟s hope you may die young at 80.·第二篇：Three Days to See(Excerpts)假如给我三天光明（节选）Three Days to SeeAll of us have read thrilling stories in which the hero had only a limited and specified time to live. Sometimes it was as long as a year, sometimes as short as 24 hours. But always we were interested in discovering just how the doomed hero chose to spend his last days or his last hours. I speak, of course, of free men who have a choice, not condemned criminals whose sphere of activities is strictly delimited.Such stories set us thinking, wondering what we should do under similar circumstances. What events, what experiences, what associations should we crowd into those last hours as mortal beings, what regrets?Sometimes I have thought it would be an excellent rule to live each day as if we should die tomorrow. Such an attitude would emphasize sharply the values of life. We should live each day with gentleness, vigor and a keenness of appreciation which are often lost when time stretches before us in the constant panorama of more days and months and years to come. There are those, of course, who would adopt the Epicurean motto of “Eat, drink, and be merry”. But most people would be chastened by the certainty of impending death.In stories the doomed hero is usually saved at the last minute by some stroke of fortune, but almost always his sense of values is changed. He becomes more appreciative of the meaning of life and its permanent spiritual values. It has often been noted that those who live, or have lived, in the shadow of death bring a mellow sweetness to everything they do.Most of us, however, take life for granted. We know that one day we must die, but usually we picture that day as far in the future. When we are in buoyant health, death is all but unimaginable. We seldom think of it. The days stretch out in an endless vista. So we go about our petty tasks, hardly aware of our listless attitude toward life.The same lethargy, I am afraid, characterizes the use of all our faculties and senses. Only the deaf appreciate hearing, only the blind realize the manifold blessings that lie in sight. Particularly does this observation apply to those who have lost sight and hearing in adult life. But those who have never suffered impairment of sight or hearing seldom make the fullest use of these blessed faculties. Their eyes and ears take in all sights and sounds hazily, without concentration and with little appreciation. It is the same old story of not being grateful for what we have until we lose it, of not being conscious of health until we are ill.I have often thought it would be a blessing if each human being were stricken blind and deaf for a few days at some time during his early adult life. Darkness would make him more appreciative of sight; silence would teach him the joys of sound.·第三篇：Companionship of Books 以书为伴（节选）Companionship of BooksA man may usually be known by the books he reads as well as by the company he keeps; for there is a companionship of books as well as of men; and one should always live in the best company, whether it be of books or of men.A good book may be among the best of friends. It is the same today that it always was, and it will never change. It is the most patient and cheerful of companions. It does not turn its back upon us in times of adversity or distress. It always receives us with the same kindness; amusing and instructing us in youth, and comforting and consoling us in age.Men often discover their affinity to each other by the mutual love they have for a book just as two persons sometimes discover a friend by the admiration which both entertain for a third. There is an old proverb, …Love me, love my dog.” But there is more wisdom in this:” Love me, love my book.” The book is a truer and higher bond of union. Men can think, feel, and sympathize with each other through their favorite author. They live in him together, and he in them.A good book is often the best urn of a life enshrining the best that life could think out; for the world of a man‟s life is, for the most part, but the world of his thoughts. Thus the best books are treasuries of good words, the golden thoughts, which, remembered and cherished, become our constant companions and comforters.Books possess an essence of immortality. They are by far the most lasting products of human effort. Temples and statues decay, but books survive. Time is of no account with great thoughts, which are as fresh today as when they first passed through their author‟s minds, ages ago. What was then said and thought still speaks to us as vividly as ever from the printed page. The only effect of time have been to sift out the bad products; for nothing in literature can long survive e but what is really good.Books introduce us into the best society; they bring us into the presence of the greatest minds that have ever lived. We hear what they said and did; we see the as if they were really alive; we sympathize with them, enjoy with them, grieve with them; their experience becomes ours, and we feel as if we were in a measure actors with them in the scenes which they describe.The great and good do not die, even in this world. Embalmed in books, their spirits walk abroad. The book is a living voice. It is an intellect to which on still listens.·第四篇：If I Rest,I Rust 如果我休息，我就会生锈If I Rest, I RustThe significant inscription found on an old key---“If I rest, I rust”---would be an excellent motto for those who are afflicted with the slightest bit of idleness. Even the most industrious person might adopt it with advantage to serve as a reminder that, if one allows his faculties to rest, like the iron in the unused key, they will soon show signs of rust and, ultimately, cannot do the work required of them.Those who would attain the heights reached and kept by great men must keep their faculties polished by constant use, so that they may unlock the doors of knowledge, the gate that guard the entrances to the professions, to science, art, literature, agriculture---every department of human endeavor.Industry keeps bright the key that opens the treasury of achievement. If Hugh Miller, after toiling all day in a quarry, had devoted his evenings to rest and recreation, he would never have become a famous geologist. The celebrated mathematician, Edmund Stone, would never have published a mathematical dictionary, never have found the key to science of mathematics, if he had given his spare moments to idleness, had the little Scotch lad, Ferguson, allowed the busy brain to go to sleep while he tended sheep on the hillside instead of calculating the position of the stars by a string of beads, he would never have become a famous astronomer.Labor vanquishes all---not inconstant, spasmodic, or ill-directed labor; but faithful, unremitting, daily effort toward a well-directed purpose. Just as truly as eternal vigilance is the price of liberty, so is eternal industry the price of noble and enduring success.·第五篇：Ambition 抱负AmbitionIt is not difficult to imagine a world short of ambition. It would probably be a kinder world: with out demands, without abrasions, without disappointments. People would have time for reflection. Such work as they did would not be for themselves but for the collectivity. Competition would never enter in. conflict would be eliminated, tension become a thing of the past. The stress of creation would be at an end. Art would no longer be troubling, but purely celebratory in its functions. Longevity would be increased, for fewer people would die of heart attack or stroke caused by tumultuous endeavor. Anxiety would be extinct. Time would stretch on and on, with ambition long departed from the human heart.Ah, how unrelieved boring life would be!There is a strong view that holds that success is a myth, and ambition therefore a sham. Does this mean that success does not really exist? That achievement is at bottom empty? That the efforts of men and women are of no significance alongside the force of movements and events now not all success, obviously, is worth esteeming, nor all ambition worth cultivating. Which are and which are not is something one soon eno ugh learns on one‟s own. But even the most cynical secretly admit that success exists; that achievement counts for a great deal; and that the true myth is that the actions of men and women are useless. To believe otherwise is to take on a point of view that is likely to be deranging. It is, in its implications, to remove all motives for competence, interest in attainment, and regard for posterity.We do not choose to be born. We do not choose our parents. We do not choose our historical epoch, the country of our birth, or the immediate circumstances of our upbringing. We do not, most of us, choose to die; nor do we choose the time or conditions of our death. But within all this realm of choicelessness, we do choose how we shall live: courageously or in cowardice, honorably or dishonorably, with purpose or in drift. We decide what is important and what is trivial in life. We decide that what makes us significant is either what we do or what we refuse to do. But no matter how indifferent the universe may be to our choices and decisions, these choices and decisions are ours to make. We decide. We choose. And as we decide and choose, so are our lives formed. In the end, forming our own destiny is what ambition is about.·第六篇：What I have Lived for 我为何而生What I Have Lived ForThree passions, simple but overwhelmingly strong, have governed my life: the longing for love, the search for knowledge, and unbearable pity for the suffering of mankind. These passions, like great winds, have blown me hither and thither, in a wayward course, over a deep ocean of anguish, reaching to the very verge of despair.I have sought love, first, because it brings ecstasy---ecstasy so great that I would often have sacrificed all the rest of my life for a few hours for this joy. I have sought it, next, because it relieves loneliness---that terrible loneliness in which one shivering consciousness looks over the rim of the world into the cold unfathomable lifeless abyss. I have sought it, finally, because in the union of love I have seen, in a mystic miniature, the prefiguring vision of the heaven that saints and poets have imagined. This is what I sought, and though it might seem too good for human life, this is what---at last---I have found.With equal passion I have sought knowledge. I have wished to understand the hearts of men. I have wished to know why the stars shine. And I have tried to apprehend the Pythagorean power by which number holds sway above the flux.A little of this, but not much, I have achieved.Love and knowledge, so far as they were possible, led upward toward the heavens. But always it brought me back to earth. Echoes of cries of pain reverberate in my heart. Children in famine, victims tortured by oppressors, helpless old people a hated burden to their sons, and the whole world of loneliness, poverty, and pain make a mockery of what human life should be. I long to alleviate the evil, but I cannot, and I too suffer.This has been my life. I have found it worth living, and would gladly live it again if the chance were offered me.·第七篇：When Love Beckons You 爱的召唤When Love Beckons YouWhen love beckons to you, follow him, though his ways are hard and steep. And when his wings enfold you, yield to him, though the sword hidden among his pinions may wound you. And when he speaks to you, believe in him, though his voice may shatter your dreams as the north wind lays waste the garden.For even as love crowns you so shall he crucify you. Even as he is for your growth so is he for your pruning. Even as he ascends to your height and caresses your tenderest branches that quiver in the sun, so shall he descend to our roots and shake them in their clinging to the earth.But if, in your fear, you would seek only love‟s peace and love‟s pleasure, then it is better for you that you cover your n akedness and pass out of love‟s threshing-floor, into the seasonless world where you shall laugh, but not all of your laughter, and weep, but not all of your tears. Love gives naught but it self and takes naught but from itself. Love possesses not, nor would it be possessed, for love is sufficient unto love.Love has no other desire but to fulfill itself. But if you love and must have desires, let these be your desires:To melt and be like a running brook that sings its melody to the night.To know the pain of too much tenderness.To be wounded by your own understanding of love;And to bleed willingly and joyfully.To wake at dawn with a winged heart and give thanks for another day of loving; To rest at the noon hour and meditate love‟s ecstasy;To return home at eventide with gratitude;And then to sleep with a payer for the beloved in your heart and a song of praise upon your lips.·第八篇：The Road to Success 成功之道The Road to SuccessIt is well that young men should begin at the beginning and occupy the most subordinate positions. Many of the leading businessmen of Pittsburgh had a serious responsibility thrust upon them at the very threshold of their career. They were introduced to the broom, and spent the first hours of their business lives sweeping out the office. I notice we have janitors and janitresses now in offices, and our young men unfortunately miss that salutary branch of business education. But if by chance the professional sweeper is absent any morning, the boy who has the genius of the future partner in him will not hesitate to try his hand at the broom. It does not hurt the newest comer to sweep out the office if necessary. I was one of those sweepers myself.Assuming that you have all obtained employment and are fairly started, my advice to you is “aim high”. I would not give a fig for the young man who does not already see himself the partner or the head of an important firm. Do not rest content for a moment in your thoughts as head clerk, or foreman, or general manager in any concern, no matter how extensive. Say to yourself, “My place is at the top.” Be king in your dreams.And here is the prime condition of success, the great secret: concentrate your energy, thought, and capital exclusively upon the business in which you are engaged. Having begun in one line, resolve to fight it out on that line, to lead in it, adopt every improvement, have the best machinery, and know the most about it. The concerns which fail are those which have scattered their capital, which means that they have scattered their brains also. They have investments in this, or that, or the other, here there, and everywhere. “Don‟t put all your eggs i n one basket.” is all wrong. I tell you to “put all your eggs in one basket, and then watch that basket.” Look round you and take notice, men who do that not often fail. It is easy to watch and carry the one basket. It is trying to carry too many baskets that breaks most eggs in this country. He who carries three baskets must put one on his head, which is apt to tumble and trip him up. One fault of the American businessman is lack of concentration.To summarize what I have said: aim for the highest; never enter a bar room; do not touch liquor, or if at all only at meals; never speculate; never indorse beyond your surplus cash fund; make the firm‟s interest yours; break orders always to save owners; concentrate; put all your eggs in one basket, and watch that basket; expenditure always within revenue; lastly, be not impatient, for as Emerson says, “no one can cheat you out of ultimate success but yourselves.”·第九篇：On Meeting the Celebrated 论见名人On Meeting the CelebratedI have always wondered at the passion many people have to meet the celebrated. The prestige you acquire by being able to tell your friends that you know famous men proves only that you are yourself of small account. The celebrated develop a technique to deal with the persons they come across. They show the world a mask, often an impressive on, but take care to conceal their real selves. They play the part that is expected from them, and with practice learn to play it very well, but you are stupid if you think that this public performance of theirs corresponds with the man within.I have been attached, deeply attached, to a few people; but I have been interested in men in general not for their own sakes, but for the sake of my work. I have not, as Kant enjoined, regarded each man as an end in himself, but as material that might be useful to me as a writer. I have been more concerned with the obscure than with the famous. They are more often themselves. They have had no need to create a figure to protect themselves from the world or to impress it. Their idiosyncrasies have had more chance to develop in the limited circle of their activity, and since they have never been in the public eye it has never occurred to them that they have anything to conceal. They display their oddities because it has never struck them that they are odd. And after all it is with the common run of men that we writers have to deal; kings, dictators, commercial magnates are from our point of view very unsatisfactory. To write about them is a venture that has often tempted writers, but the failure that has attended their efforts shows that such beings are too exceptional to form a proper ground for a work of art. They cannot be made real. The ordinary is the writer‟s richer field. Its unexpectedness, its singularity, its infinite variety afford unending material. The great man is too often all of a piece; it is the little man that is a bundle of contradictory elements. He is inexhaustible. You never come to the end of the surprises he has in store for you. For my part I would much sooner spend a month on a desert island with a veterinary surgeon than with a prime minister.·第十篇：The 50-Percent Theory of Life 生活理论半对半The 50-Percent Theory of LifeI believe in the 50-percent theory. Half the time things are better than normal; the other half, they re worse. I believe life is a pendulum swing. It takes time and experience to understand what normal is, and that gives me the perspective to deal with the surprises of the future.Let‟s benchmark the parameters: yes, I will die. I‟ve dealt with the deaths of both parents, a best friend, a beloved boss and cherished pets. Some of these deaths have been violent, before my eyes, or slow and agonizing. Bad stuff, and it belongs at the bottom of the scale.Then there are those high points: romance and marriage to the right person; having a child and doing those Dad things like coaching my son‟s baseball team, paddling around the creek in the boat while he‟s swimming with the dogs, discovering his compassion so deep it manifests even in his kindness to snails, his imagination so vivid he builds a spaceship from a scattered pile of Legos.But there is a vast meadow of life in the middle, where the bad and the good flip-flop acrobatically. This is what convinces me to believe in the 50-percent theory.One spring I planted corn too early in a bottomland so flood-prone that neighbors laughed. I felt chagrined at the wasted effort. Summer turned brutal---the worst heat wave and drought in my lifetime. The air-conditioned died; the well went dry; the marriage ended; the job lost; the money gone. I was living lyrics from a country tune---music I loathed. Only a surging Kansas City Royals team buoyed my spirits.Looking back on that horrible summer, I soon understood that all succeeding good things merely offset the bad. Worse than normal wouldn‟t last long. I am owed and savor the halcyon times. The reinvigorate me for the next nasty surprise and offer assurance that can thrive. The 50-percent theory even helps me see hope beyond my Royals‟ recent slump, a field of struggling rookies sown so that some year soon we can reap an October harvest.For that on blistering summer, the ground moisture was just right, planting early allowed pollination before heat withered the tops, and the lack of rain spared the standing corn from floods. That winter my crib overflowed with corn---fat, healthy three-to-a-stalk ears filled with kernels from heel to tip---while my neighbors‟ fields yielded only brown, empty husks.Although plantings past may have fallen below the 50-percent expectation, and they probably will again in the future, I am still sustained by the crop that flourishes during the drought.·第十一篇：What is Your Recovery Rate? 你的恢复速率是多少？What is Your Recovery Rate?What is your recovery rate? How long does it take you to recover from actions and behaviors that upset you? Minutes? Hours? Days? Weeks? The longer it takes you to recover, the more influence that incident has on your actions, and the less able you are to perform to your personal best. In a nutshell, the longer it takes you to recover, the weaker you are and the poorer your performance.You are well aware that you need to exercise to keep the body fit and, no doubt, accept that a reasonable measure of health is the speed in which your heart and respiratory system recovers after exercise. Likewise the faster you let go of an issue that upsets you, the faster you return to an equilibrium, the healthier you will be. The best example of this behavior is found with professional sportspeople. They know that the faster they can forget an incident or missd opportunity and get on with the game, the better their performance. In fact, most measure the time it takes them to overcome and forget an incident in a game and most reckon a recovery rate of 30 seconds is too long!Imagine yourself to be an actor in a play on the stage. Your aim is to play your part to the best of your ability. You have been given a script and at the end of each sentence is a ful stop. Each time you get to the end of the sentence you start a new one and although the next sentence is related to the last it is not affected by it. Your job is to deliver each sentence to the best of your ability.Don‟t live your life in the past! Learn to live in the present, to overcome the past. Stop the past from influencing your daily life. Don‟t allow thoughts of the past to reduce your personal best. Stop the past from interfering with your life. Learn to recover quickly.Remember: Rome wasn‟t built in a day. Reflect on your recovery rate each day. Every day before you go to bed, look at your progress. Don‟t lie in bed saying to you, “I did that wrong.” “I should have done better there.” No. look at your day and note when you made an effort to place a full stop after an incident. This is a success. You are taking control of your life. Remember this is a step by step process. This is not a make-over. You are undertaking real change here. Your aim: reduce the time spent in recovery.The way forward?Live in the present. Not in the precedent.·第十二篇：Clear Your Mental Space 清理心灵的空间Clear Your Mental SpaceThink about the last time you felt a negative emotion---like stress, anger, or frustration. What was going through your mind as you were going through that negativity? Was your mind cluttered with thoughts? Or was it paralyzed, unable to think?The next time you find yourself in the middle of a very stressful time, or you feel angry or f rustrated, stop. Yes, that‟s right, stop. Whatever you‟re doing, stop and sit for one minute. While you‟re sitting there, completely immerse yourself in the negative emotion.Allow that emotion to consume you. Allow yourself one minute to truly feel that emotion. Don‟t cheat yourself here. Take the entire minute---but only one minute---to do nothing else but feel that emotion.When the minute is over, ask yourself, “Am I wiling to keep holding on to this negative emotion as I go through the rest of the da y?”Once you‟ve allowed yourself to be totally immersed in the emotion and really fell it, you will be surprised to find that the emotion clears rather quickly.If you feel you need to hold on to the emotion for a little longer, that is OK. Allow yourself another minute to feel the emotion.When you feel you‟ve had enough of the emotion, ask yourself if you‟re willing to carry that negativity with you for the rest of the day. If not, take a deep breath. As you exhale, release all that negativity with your breath.This exercise seems simple---almost too simple. But, it is very effective. By allowing that negative emotion the space to be truly felt, you are dealing with the emotion rather than stuffing it down and trying not to feel it. You are actually taking away the power of the emotion by giving it the space and attention it needs. When you immerse yourself in the emotion, and realize that it is only emotion, it loses its control. You can clear your head and proceed with your task. Try it. Next time you‟re in the middle of a negative emotion, give yourself the space to feel the emotion and see what happens. Keep a piece of paper with you that says the following:Stop. Immerse for one minute. Do I want to keep this negativity? Breath deep, exhale, release. Move on!This will remind you of the steps to the process. Remember; take the time you need to really immerse yourself in the emotion. Then, when you feel you‟ve felt it enough, release it---really let go of it. You will be surprised at how quickly you can move on from a negative situation and get to what you really want to do!。

She looks up to me so much and I try to set a good example by getting good grades and helping out around the house.Our dog Rufus has been my furry best friend for as long as I can recall. When I was just a baby, Rufus would lay beside my crib and keep me company. Now he follows me around everywhere, waiting for the chance to play fetch or sneak a treat from the kitchen counter. Rufus makes me feel safe, happy, and loved unconditionally. I don't know what I'd do without his wagging tail to greet me every day after school.My family's home is the coziest, most wonderful place in the entire world. It's cheerful and bright, with family photos and art projects from me and Emily covering the walls. The kitchen is the heart of the home where we all gather every evening for mom'smouth-watering home cooked meals. I can't get enough of her famous fried chicken or refreshing homemade lemonade. After dinner, we'll watch movies together cuddled up on the couch or play family games. Simple moments like that bring me so much joy and happiness.On Sundays, we get dressed up and go to church as a family. Church is important because it's where we learn all about God's love and advice for living a good life. It makes me feel closer to God and so grateful for all of the blessings in my life, especially the blessing of my amazing family. After church, we get to spend the rest of the day together doing fun things like going to the park, visiting relatives, or just hanging out at home. Sundays are the best because I get my family's undivided attention and quality time all to myself.Sometimes, my family drives me a little crazy with all the rules and nagging about things like cleaning my room or going to bed on time. But I realize now as I'm getting older that all those rules come from a place of love. My parents aren't trying to be mean or ruin my fun - they simply want what's best for me and are trying to raise me the right way to become a good, responsible person someday.My family is also always there for me through the hard times, not just the good times. When I'm feeling sad, sick, or struggling with something difficult, my family envelops me in a warm, safe embrace. They encourage me not to give up, to believe in myself, and to keep trying my very best. I know I can weather any storm or overcome any obstacle as long as I have my family's endless love and support every single step of the way.There's nothing more precious or valuable in this world than the bond of family. A family is a circle of love, acceptance, and security no matter what. I'm so lucky that God blessed me with the most amazing family a kid could ever hope for. They have given me lifelong memories, immense happiness, and a lifetime of lessons about the true meaning of love. I can't imagine my life。

新东方关于家的作文英语
新东方关于家的作文英语Home, a word that evokes a myriad of emotions and conjures up a tapestry of memories, is a sanctuary where hearts find solace and dreams take flight. It is not merely a physical structure but an embodiment of love, belonging, and the intricate threads that bind us to our past, present, and future.In the annals of literature, countless words have been penned to capture the essence of home. For Charles Dickens, it was a place of "sweet peace" and "inexpressible comfort," where the "hearts of its inmates [were] turned towards each other in perfect trust." In his immortal work, "Great Expectations," the protagonist Pip finds solace and redemption within the humble walls of his childhood home, a testament to the enduring power of home as a haven fromlife's storms.For the renowned American poet Robert Frost, home wasan enduring source of inspiration. In his poem "The Deathof the Hired Man," he paints a poignant portrait of a life lived in the service of others, culminating in a poignant return to the place where he truly belonged. "Home is the place where, when you have to go there, they have to take you in," Frost famously wrote, underscoring the unconditional acceptance and love that defines a true home.The concept of home extends beyond the confines of physical space to encompass a sense of belonging within a community. In the words of the African proverb, "A man without a home is like a tree without roots." It is within the embrace of community that we find a sense of purpose and belonging, a feeling of being an integral part of something larger than ourselves.Home is also a repository of memories, a living tapestry woven from the threads of our experiences. Each laughter-filled moment, each tear-stained night, each triumph and setback becomes an indelible part of the fabric of our home. These memories shape who we are, providing us with a sense of continuity and identity.In the tapestry of life, home serves as a constant, a touchstone to which we can always return, no matter how far we may roam. It is a place where we can shed our masks and be truly ourselves, where we can find solace in times of trouble and celebrate our triumphs with those we love.The concept of home has evolved over time, reflecting the changing societal norms and technological advancements. In today's fast-paced, globalized world, home is no longer confined to a single physical location but has become a fluid and multifaceted concept. For many, home is wherever their loved ones are, whether that be across town or across the globe. Advances in technology have also expanded our understanding of home, enabling us to stay connected with our loved ones and feel a sense of belonging even when physically separated.Home is not merely a place but a state of mind, a feeling of belonging and being loved. It is the place where we are truly ourselves, where we can grow, learn, and love without judgment. Home is where the heart is, and wherever the heart finds its home, there is true happiness.In the symphony of life, home is the recurring melody that weaves together the disparate threads of our existence, creating a harmonious composition. It is the place where we find our rhythm, where we feel most at ease, and where we can truly be ourselves. Home is more than just a roof over our heads; it is the foundation upon which we build our lives, the sanctuary where we find peace, and the haven to which we always return.。

家庭是上帝给我们的礼物英语作文
家庭是上帝给我们的礼物英语作文Family is a Gift from GodMy family is the most precious gift God has given me. They are my everything - my world, my joy, my comfort, and my biggest blessing. I can't imagine my life without them.I have the most amazing parents in the whole universe! My mom is like an angel sent from heaven. She takes such good care of me and my siblings. She cooks the yummiest foods, helps us with our homework, plays games with us, and most importantly, she loves us unconditionally. Her hugs make all my worries go away. My dad is my real-life superhero! He works really hard to provide for our family. But he still finds time to spend with us, take us fun places, and make us laugh with his jokes and silly songs. I feel so safe and protected when I'm with my dad.Then there are my siblings - my built-in best friends! We do everything together - play, study, fight (just a little!), and laugh until our bellies hurt. Even though they tease me sometimes, I know they've got my back no matter what. We look out for each other and cheer each other on. My older brother is like a second dad to me - he gives me wise advice and is someone I really lookup to. My younger sister is my partner-in-crime and we have so much fun creating imaginary worlds to explore.I'm also blessed with the most caring grandparents. They spoil us rotten with love, cookies, and gifts! Spending time with them is the best - they have infinite patience for our endless questions and wild games. My grandparents teach me so much about our family's history, cultural traditions, and what's really important in life. Being with them makes me feel rooted and a vital part of something bigger.Then there are my aunts, uncles, and cousins who make our family circle complete. Our family gatherings are always filled with way too much food, loud laughter, dancing, and tonnes of hugs. No matter what's going on in our lives, we know our relatives will be there for us without judgement. I feel so fortunate to have this huge support system surrounding me.My family means everything to me because they teach me about unconditional love. I know I can count on their encouragement when I'm struggling, their honesty when I need guidance, and their comfort during difficult times. With my family, I have a safe haven where I'm accepted for who I am - flaws and all. They help shape me into the best version of myself.Most importantly, my family shows me the power of God's love through their actions every single day. The way my parents sacrificially care for us, the way my grandparents prioritize keeping the family united, the way my aunts and uncles make time for us despite their busy lives - it's all because of their faith. Their example reminds me that loving others and putting them first is the greatest gift we can give. My family loves me not because of what I do, but because of who I am - a precious child of God. That's the kind of love God has for me too.My family's love reflects just a tiny fraction of the incredible, never-ending love God has for all of His children. He loved us so much that He sent His only Son, Jesus, to die for us. To me, that's the hugest expression of love there could ever be! Knowing I'm deeply loved by my Heavenly Father gives me inner strength, peace, and confidence that can't be shaken.God's gift of family helps me understand His character and experience His everlasting love in a real, tangible way. Through all the laughter, chaos, inside jokes, long hugs, quality time, forgiveness, and memory-making moments - I see God's faithfulness shining through my family. Their love is a direct reminder that I'm cherished, valued, and have a secure place in God's forever family.So yes, family is the greatest blessing from God! Our families aren't perfect - we're all sinners who mess up and hurt each other sometimes. But at the end of the day, we're knit together by God's unconditional love and grace. I'm so grateful He's given me these incredible people to love me, point me to Him, and be my biggest cheerleaders in life. My family makes me who I am and gives me a firm foundation to grow. Thanks to God's wonderful gift, I'll never be alone!。

This rule emphasizes the importance of showing respect and care towards the older generation, while also being considerate and compassionate towards the younger generation. For example, whenever we have family gatherings, the younger members of the family are encouraged to show respect to the elders by greeting them first and offeringto help with any tasks. This rule has helped instill a sense of empathy and understanding among family members, and has created a loving and supportive family dynamic.Another family rule that we abide by is "诚实守信" (honesty and integrity).

• I believe in an all-wise and all-loving God, named by whatever name, and that the individual's highest fulfillment, greatest happiness and widest usefulness are to be found in living in harmony with His will.
• Let me state them:
• I believe in the supreme worth of the individual and in his right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. • I believe that every right implies a responsibility; every opportunity, an obligation; every possession, a duty. • I believe that the law was made for man and not man for the law; that government is the servant of the people and not their master.
• They point the way to usefulness and happiness in life, to courage and peace in death.
• If they mean to you what they mean to me, they may perhaps be helpful also to our sons for their guidance and inspiration.
• I believe in the dignity of labor, whether with head or hand; that the world owes no man a living but that it owes every man an opportunity to make a living. • I believe that thrift is essential to well ordered living and that economy is a prime requisite of a sound financial structure, whether in government, business or personal affairs. • I believe that truth and justice are fundamental to an enduring social order.
• They are the principles on which my wife and I have tried to bring up our family. They are the principles in which my father believed and by which he governed his life. They are the principles, many of them, which I learned at my mo the sacredness of a promise, that a man's world should be as good as his bond, that character — not wealth or power or position — is of supreme worth.
• I believe that love is the greatest thing in the world; that it alone can overcome hate; that right can and will triumph over might.
