In the long river of time, our ancient land has witnessed countless changes and reincarnations. Nowadays, with the rapid development of the times, some stereotypes and bad habits seem to be quietly spreading, bringing a lot of burden to our rural life. In the face of the reality of economic recession and financial difficulties, we should deeply reflect on it, actively respond to the call of village cadres, take diligence and thrift as the criterion, handle new marriages and simple funerals, and jointly curb undesirable trends such as high-priced bride prices and comparison of favors, so as to inject a fresh vitality into our villages.
First, let's talk about the new marriage. In the past, a wedding often meant huge expenses and tedious ceremonies. From the bride price to the dowry, from the wedding banquet to the wedding candy, every link seems to pursue the ultimate luxury and pomp. However, this blind comparison and waste not only brought a heavy financial burden to the family, but also made the original pure wedding lose its original meaning. Therefore, we should advocate new marriages, pay attention to the connotation and quality of weddings, let love become the theme of weddings, and let family and friendship become the witnesses of weddings. We can choose a simple and warm wedding form, and interpret the true meaning of marriage with sincere emotions and good wishes.
Next, let's talk about funeral briefing. In our traditional culture, funeral is regarded as one of the major life events, and a solemn ceremony is required to remember the deceased. However, with the changes of the times, some old funeral customs have gradually revealed their drawbacks. Excessive extravagance and waste, cumbersome ritual processes not only bring a heavy burden to the family, but also make it impossible for the deceased to rest in peace. Therefore, we should advocate simple funerals, pay attention to the wishes and feelings of the deceased, and use simple and solemn ceremonies to remember the deceased. We can choose an environmentally friendly and low-carbon way of mourning, decorate the mourning hall with flowers and plants, and express our sorrow and remembrance for the deceased with music and poetry.
Of course, while advocating new marriages and simple funerals, we cannot ignore the practical problem of high-priced bride price. As a traditional custom, the bride price reflects the importance and blessing of the family to marriage to a certain extent. However, with the development of society and the improvement of material conditions, the price of bride price in some places is getting higher and higher, and even has become a stumbling block to marriage. This kind of high-priced bride price not only brings a heavy financial burden to the family, but also makes the originally beautiful marriage full of utilitarianism and calculation. Therefore, we should resolutely curb the spread of high-priced bride prices and return marriage to its essence and original intention. We can guide people to establish correct concepts and values of marriage through publicity and education, formulating norms, etc., so that love can become the only standard for marriage.
In addition to marriages and funerals, we also need to pay attention to the comparison of human feelings and extravagance and waste in daily life. In some places, human relations and feasts have become a burden and a constraint. For the sake of face and pomp, people do not hesitate to spend a lot of money and energy to hold banquets and participate in personal exchanges. However, this kind of blind comparison and waste not only brings a heavy financial burden to the family, but also makes the originally simple life complicated and cumbersome. Therefore, we should advocate a thrifty lifestyle and pay attention to the quality and connotation of life. We can choose simple vegetarian meals, reduce banquets and personal contacts to reduce the burden of life and financial pressure. At the same time, we can also actively participate in public welfare activities and volunteer services to enrich our lives and spiritual world.
In this process, the exemplary and leading role of party members and cadres is particularly important. As the representatives and backbone of the Party and the government, Party members and cadres should lead by example, take the lead in setting an example, and actively practice the concepts of diligence and thrift, new marriages, and simple funerals. They can influence and motivate the people around them to participate in this action through their words and deeds. At the same time, they can also use their own resources and advantages to promote the formulation and implementation of relevant policies, and contribute to the revitalization and development of rural areas.
Finally, what I want to say is that the concepts of diligence and thrift, new marriages, and simple funerals are not only a slogan and initiative, but also a kind of responsibility and responsibility. In this period of economic recession and financial difficulties, we should be more aware of the importance and urgency of these ideas. Let's work together to inject a fresh vitality into our countryside! Let's put these ideas into practice with practical actions to make our countryside more beautiful and prosperous!
So, are you ready to join the action? Are you ready to use your actions to influence and motivate the people around you to practice these ideas together? Let's take action together! Let our countryside become more beautiful and prosperous because of diligence and thrift!
