one summer 99 years ago, a great political party, the communist party of china, was born on a small boat on south lake in jiaxing, zhejiang province. the 13 delegates, whose average age was only 28 years old, gathered together and became a blazing fire, which ignited the revolutionary passion in the hearts of 4 million chinese people, burst out the brilliant light of marxism, and lit up the road to the rejuvenation of the suffering china. "to seek happiness for the chinese people and rejuvenation for the chinese nation" is a solemn promise she made to the entire chinese people. it has also become the original aspiration and mission of the chinese communists.
oath, is every communist party declaration, but also they to the party, to the country, to the people make clank oath. "i volunteer to join the communist party of china, uphold the party's program, observe the party's constitution, fulfill the duties of a party member, carry out the party's decisions, strictly observe party discipline, keep secrets of the conservative party, be loyal to the party, work actively, fight for communism all my life, be ready to sacrifice everything for the party and the people, and never betray the party." from the moment of raising one's hand to take the oath, these 80 words are destined to accompany with every communist for life and must stick to them for life.
never forget why you started, and your mission can be accomplished. "the pledge to join the party is few words, it is not difficult to remember, difficult is to stick to it for life. every party member must remember the oath of admission, keep it in contrast, be firm and unswerving throughout his life." xi jinping, general secretary of the communist party of china (cpc) central committee, speaks at a memorial hall at the site of the first congress of the cpc in beijing, capital of china, oct. 31, 2017. the 19th national congress of the communist party of china (cpc) is a very important congress held at the decisive stage of completing the building of a moderately prosperous society in all respects and at a crucial stage when socialism with chinese characteristics has entered a new era. just a week after the 19th cpc national congress, president xi jinping chose the birthplace of the cpc to leave beijing for the first time, and led the standing committee of the political bureau of the cpc central committee to follow the footsteps of their forefathers and renew the oath of party membership. such a course of action also illustrates the critical importance of staying true to the blueprint outlined at the 19th national congress. this is what general secretary xi jinping has said and what he has done. he set an example by himself and called on all communist party members to never forget their original aspiration and keep their mission in mind to strive for the great rejuvenation of the chinese nation forever. in this regard, every communist must have a clear and profound understanding: only by not forgetting the original intention, can we comfort the history and comfort the ancestors; only by staying true to our original aspiration can we win hearts and minds and win the times. only by staying true to our original aspiration can we face the future and realize our dream for renewal.
only by sticking to our original intention can we go far and steadily. to realize national rejuvenation, we need every communist's persistence and earnest practice. "the power of example is infinite". in reality, there are many excellent communist party members who teach us how to stick to the beginner's mind and practice the beginner's mind. luo yang, a national model of aviation news, "lifted china's fighter jets into the sky with his life"; huang danian, a geophysicist, "opened the door of the earth with his body"; the examples of liao junbo, the excellent county party secretary, who "bowed his head and was willing to be a 'woodcutter', who fought for the people all his life", and zou bihua, a good judge of the people, who "dared to bite hard bones and was willing to be a 'lamp burner'" are too numerous to enumerate. they used their whole life to stick to their original aspiration and practice their original aspiration, and annotated the original aspiration and mission of communists with their brilliant achievements and even their precious lives. it is the emergence of one after another communists who have stuck to their original aspiration that has given the great ship of the chinese nation the inexhaustible driving force to cut through waves and forge ahead.
the blueprints were drawn and the sails set. the 19th national congress of the cpc has set the goal of building china into a great modern socialist country in all respects and mapped out the timetable, road map and task book for the great rejuvenation of the chinese nation. the ship of the great rejuvenation of the chinese nation is braving the wind and waves and moving ahead at full speed. we communists must stay true to our original aspiration of "seeking happiness for the chinese people and rejuvenation for the chinese nation". we must not slacken, deviate or change our course, and only in this way can we steadily and rapidly sail to victory.
