第一篇:奥巴马在父亲节上的演讲稿
奥巴马在父亲节上的演讲稿
每年6月的第三个星期是父亲节,作为子女,应该反省过去的一年是否做到孝敬、关心父母;而作为父亲,也要审视自己是否尽了做父亲的职责。下面是美国现任总统奥巴马在2008年父亲节的精彩演讲节选,他强调了家庭的重要价值以及父亲家庭中所扮演的重要角色。不仅是父亲,家庭中的每一位成员都会感同身受并把自己的角色做得更好。
Of all the rocks upon witch we build our lives, we are reminded today that family is the most imortant.And we are called to recognize and honor how critical every father is to that foundation.They are teachers and coaches.They are mentors role models.They are examples of success and the men who constantly push us towared it.今天我们要记起来的是,在我们缔造生活所依赖的基石中,家庭是最重要的。我们必须认识并且认识和赞颂每一位父亲在这个基石中所起的关键作用。父亲既是老师又是教练;既是导师又是模范。既是成功的榜样,又是不断推动我们走向成功的人。
I say this knowing that I have been an imperfect father—knowing that I have made mistakes and will contiue to make more;wishing that I could be home for my girls and my wife more than I am right now.I say this knowing all of these things because even as we are imperfect ,even as we face diffcult circumstance ,there are still certain lessons we must strive to live and learn as fathers —whether we are black or white , poor or rich.我讲这些话时,心里明白我并非一个尽善尽美的父亲——我知道我犯过错误,并且还可能会犯更多错误;我希望我能比现在有更多的时间在家里陪伴我的女儿和太太。我心里明白这一切,应为纵然我们缺点多多,纵然我们面对重重困难,但有某些教训是我们身为人父者应该尽可能去体会与学习的——不管我们是黑人还是白人,富人还是穷人。
The first is setting an example of excellence for our children —because if we want to set high expectations for them , we've got to set hight expectations for ourselfs.It's great if you have a job;It's even better if you have a college degree;It's a wonderful thing if you are married and living in a home with your children ,but don't just sit in the house and watch “sports center” all weekend long;That's why so many children are growing up in front of television.As fathers and parents , we've got to spend more time with them, and help them with their homework , and replace video game or remote control with a book in a while.That's how we build that foundation.第一个教训是,给我们的子女树立一个卓越的榜样——因为如果我们对他们寄予厚望,那么我们自己也应该抱有同样高的期望。你有一份工作是件好事,有个大学文凭会更好。结了婚而又能跟孩子住在一起是再好不过了,但不要只是整个周末泡在家里看看“体育直播间”节目。许多孩子就是因为有这样的父亲而只能傍着电视机长大。作为父亲,作为家长,我们应该在他们身上花更多的时间,帮助他们完成作业,时不时地让他们抛开手中的游戏机或电视遥控器而捧上一本书。这就是我们要为建立那个基础所应该做的事情。
The second thing we need to do as fathers is pass along the value of empathy to our children.Not sympathy , but empathy — the ability to stand in somebody else's shoes;To look at the world through their eyes.Sometimes it's so easy to get caught up in “us”, that we forget about our obligations to one another.第二个教训是,身为人父,我们应该传递给我们的子女一种同理心的人生价值观。不是同情怜悯,而是同理心——能设身处地的为别人着想,将心比心;能透过别人的眼睛观察这个世界。有时候我们是如此轻易的执着于“我们”,而忘了我们彼此之间所应负担的责任。
And the final lesson we must learn as father is also the greatest gift we can pass on to our children----andthat is the gift of hope.我们身为人父应总结的最后一个教训,也是我们可以传给子女的最为贵重的礼物,就是希望
I am not talking about an idle hope that's little more than blind optimism or willful ignorance of the problems we face.I'm talking about hope as the spirit inside usthat insists, despite all evidence to the contray, that something better is waiting for us if we're willing to work for it and fight for it.If we are willing to believe.我将的希望不是空谈的希望,不是那种盲目的乐观主义或对我们面对的问题不加考虑。我讲的希望是那种寄托于我们内心的精神;坚信在逆境中只要愿意为之努力奋斗,情况就会变得好起来。只要我们怀有这种信念。
第二篇:奥巴马在父亲节讲话
奥巴马在父亲节讲话
“在我们建立我们生活所依附的岩石中,今天我们要记起来的是,最重要的岩石是家庭。我们须要认识到并予以肯定的是,每位父亲对这个基础能起多么关键的作用。父亲是教师和教练,他们是导师和生活角色的模范,是成功的榜样,亦是老推动我们走向成功的人。
“但如果我们坦诚的话,我们应该承认有太多的父亲不在其位——不在太多人的生活里,不在太多的家里。他们置他们的责任于不顾,表现得像小男孩而不是男子汉。我们许许多多家庭的基础也因此而变得更加薄弱了。
“你我都知道这种情况在非洲裔美国人的社会里多么真实。我们知道一半以上的黑人小孩住在单亲家庭里,这个数字比我们童年时代高出一倍。统计资料告诉我们:生活里没有父亲的孩子比较容易落入贫困或犯罪的可能性高出五倍;他们比较容易弃学的可能性高出九倍;比较容易关进监狱的可能性高出二十倍。他们比较可能出现行为问题,比较可能离家出走,比较可能成为青春发育年龄期父母。由于父亲的缺席,我们社会的基础变得更加薄弱。
„„
“但我们也需要家庭来抚育我们的子女。我们需要父亲们能认识到做父亲的责任并不终止于导致怀孕。我们需要他们认识到,不是有生孩子的能力,而是有抚养孩子的勇气才配称男子汉。
“我们需要帮助那些正在靠自己抚养孩子的母亲。她们送孩子上学,去上班,下午接孩子回家,再上一次班,做饭和准备午餐饭盒,付帐单,打点家务,以及种种需要双亲干的工作。许许多多的妇女正干着这些英勇伟大的工作,但她们需要支持啊。她们需要另一个家长。她们的孩子也需要另一个家长。唯有如此他们才有牢靠的基础,我们的国家也才有牢靠的基础。
“我知道身边没有一个父亲的苦处,当然我的处境没有像今天许多年轻人的处境那么不幸。虽然我的父亲在我两岁时就离开了我们,而我只从他所写的信和我家庭讲到他的故事中了解到他,但我比大多数无父的小孩都幸运。我在夏威夷长大,我有两个来自堪萨斯州的外祖父母,他们尽他们的一切帮我母亲抚养我和我妹妹,也帮她教导我们对人要有爱心、尊重和有责任感。我做错过许多不应做错的事,但我获得了许多改过自新的机会。虽然我们没有很多钱,但奖学金让我有机会上我们国家一些最好的学校。今天很多小孩未能获得这些机会。他们的生活中不容他们有犯错误而改过自新的机会。所以在这一点上我个人的故事与他们是不同的。
“尽管如此,我了解我母亲作为一个单亲所要付出的艰辛:有时候她吃力挣扎着清还账单;挣扎着给我们那些别的孩子有的东西;挣扎着扮演应该由双亲扮演的角色。我也知道因此我所要付出的艰辛。所以我多年前已下定决心要打破这个恶性循环——我下定决心,如果我一生中有何成就的话,我要作为我女儿的好父亲;如果我能给予她们任何东西的话,我要给她们那个她们能建立她们生活的岩石——那个基础。那将是我所能给予她们的最贵重的礼物。
“我在讲这些话时,我心里明白我是一个缺点多多的父亲——我知道我犯过错误并且将仍不断地犯更多错误;我希望我能比现在有更多时间在家陪伴我女儿和太太,可是又做不到。我心里明白这一切,因为纵然我们缺点多多,纵然我们困难重重,有某些教训是我们为父的应该尽可能地去亲历和总结的——不管我们是黑人或白人;富人或穷人;来自“南边”区(芝加哥南部较穷的住宅区)或来自富裕的郊区。
“第一个教训是给我们的子女做出一个绝佳的榜样,因为如果我们对他们抱有很高的期望,我们对自己也应该抱有同样高的期望。你有一个职业是件好事;有一个大学文凭更好一些。结了婚而又能跟孩子住在一起是再好不过了,但却不能只坐在家里而整个周末看电视的“体育中心”节目。许多孩子就是因为有这样的父亲而在电视机前成长起来的。作为父亲和家长,我们应该花更多时间在他们身上,帮他们完成作业,时不时让他们抛开电脑游戏或遥控器而捧上一本书。这就是我们要建立那个基础所应做的事。
“我们明白学校教育是孩子未来的关键。我们明白他们不再是只跟印地安那州的孩子竞争获取未来的好职业,而是跟印度、跟中国、跟世界各地的孩子竞争。我们明白为此所需的努力、学习和教育水平。
“你知道吗,有时候我去参加八年级(初中)毕业典礼,那里张灯结彩、花团锦簇、学生一个个礼服盛装。我在想,那只不过初中毕业呗。要想真正参与竞争,他们必须高中毕业,然后必须大学毕业,也许还得拿一张研究生文凭呢。在今天,只完成初中教育是竞争不过人的。让我们握一握他们的手,叫他们把屁股移到图书馆的座椅上吧!
“如果我们要把这种追求卓越的精神输进我们孩子脑里的话,就得靠作为父亲和家长的我们了。要靠我们告诉我们的女孩,别让你的自身价值被电视上的形象所操纵影响,因为我要你能做你最大的梦,去为之而奋斗。要靠我们告诉我们的男孩,收音机里的歌曲有美化暴力的可能,但在我家里我们的生活是为了美化成就、美化自尊、美化辛勤的劳动。让他们知道我们对他们抱有这些期望就全靠我们。这也就是说,我们自己也得达到这些期望的水平,我们在生活中也要做个追求卓越的榜样。
“第二个教训是,我们为父所应做的是传给我们孩子对人应有同感empathy的人生价值。不是同情,而是同感——即能设身处地地为人着想,将心比心;能透过别人的眼观世界。有时候我们是那么容易地执著于“我们”,而忘了我们相互之间所应承担的义务。我们的社会有这么一种文化(流行的看法),认为牢记我们相互之间所应承担的义务是一种软弱的表现,因此我们不应该对人表示关爱。
“但我们年轻的男孩女孩都会观察到这一切。他们会观察到你不理会或虐待你的妻子;会观察到你在家不为别人着想的表现;会观察到你的冷漠无情;会观察到你只为一己之私着想。所以,我们在学校或在街上会看到这些同样的行为表现是不足为奇的。这就是为什么我们必须以身作则来把同感和关爱这些人生价值传给我们的孩子。我们须要给他们做出这样的榜样——强者不是把别人击倒而是把别人扶起来,这才是强者。这就是我们为父的所应负起的责任。”
„„
接下去奥巴马谈到政府应如何帮助尽责的父亲和所应采取的措施。然后他接着说道: “我们应该采取这一切措施来为我们的孩子建立一个坚实的基础。但我们也必须明白,即使我们做到这一切,既使我们做父亲和家长的尽了我们的义务,即使华盛顿政府履其职责,我们在生活中仍然会碰到许多艰难的挑战。人将仍会有挣扎与痛苦的日子。风仍会在吹,雨仍会在打。
“因此最后我们为父的应总结的教训,也是我们可以传给我们孩子最贵重的礼物,就是希望这个礼物。
“我讲的希望不是空谈的希望——那种类似盲目的乐观主义或对问题不加考虑的盲干。我讲的希望是那种寄托于我们内心的精神——即坚信在逆境中我们只要愿意为之努力而奋斗,就会有更好的事在等待着我们。只要我们有这个信念啊。
“前一天我在威斯康星州的一个市政厅座谈会上回答问题。有一个年轻人举起手,我猜想他想问的是有关大学学费、能源问题或者也许有关伊拉克战争。但他不问这些,却很严肃地瞪着我问道:‘生活对你有何意义?’
“欸,我必须承认我对这个问题毫无准备。我当时开始回答得有点结巴,然后我停下来,想了一会儿就说道:
“我年轻的时候,我想到的生活就是关于我——我如何为自己在世界闯出一条路来,我如何取得成功,以及我如何获得我所要的东西。
“但现在,我的生活围绕着我的两个小女儿。我想到的是我要留给她们一个什么样的世界。她们应该生活在一个只有一小拨人富有而一大拨人为了生存而必须每天挣扎的国家吗?她们应该生活在一个依旧有种族歧视的国家吗?生活在一个由于她们是女孩而不能享有与男孩同样多机会的国家吗?她们应该生活在一个由于我们不能与其他国家有效地合作而被世人所讨厌的国家吗?她们应该生活在一个由于我们对气候所造成的不良影响而出现严重危机的世界吗?
“我所深刻认识到的是,你如果不愿意为我们的孩子——所有我们的孩子,作出一丁点贡献而留下一个更美好世界的话,生活就没有多大价值。哪怕这很困难,哪怕所要做的工作有多艰巨,哪怕在我们一生中所能做到的还远离目标甚远。
“这就是我们做父亲和做家长的最重大的责任。我们尝试,我们希望,我们尽力把我们的房子建在一个最坚实的岩石上。风吹雨打时,让风雨吹打房屋吧,我们坚信我们的主会领导我们,看着我们,保护着我们,带领着祂的孩子穿过暴风雨的极度黑暗而走向更美好未来的光明。这就是今天父亲节我为我们大家作的祈祷,也是我对我们国家将来所抱有的希望。原上帝保佑您和您们的孩子。谢谢大家。”

奥巴马每周演讲2013-06-15:Celebrating Father's Day Weekend 演讲稿中英对照:
Hi, everybody.This Sunday is Father’s Day, and so I wanted to take a moment(升调)to talk about the most important job many of us will ever have – and that’s being a dad.大家好。本周日是父亲节,所以我想花点时间谈谈我们很多人一生最重要的一项工作—当爹。
Today we’re blessed to live in a world where technology allows us to connect instantly with just about anyone on the planet.But no matter how advanced we get, there will never be a substitute for the love and support and, most importantly, the presence of a parent in a child’s life.And in many ways, that’s uniquely true for fathers.今天我们有福气生活在技术使我们能随时与地球上任何人交流的世界上。但是不管我们多么先进,在孩子的一生中,爱和支持,特别是父母的存在,是最重要的,无可替代的。而且在很多方面,对父亲们更是唯一的正确。I never really knew my own father.I was raised by a single mom and two wonderful grandparents who made incredible
sacrifices for me.And there are single parents like by mom all across the country who do a heroic job raising terrific kids.But I still wish I had a dad who was not only around, but involved;another role model to teach me what my mom did her best to instill – values like hard work and integrity;responsibility and delayed gratification – all the things that give a child the foundation to envision a brighter future for themselves.我从来没有见过我的父亲。我是在单亲妈妈和慈祥的外祖母和外祖父的巨大付出中长大的。全国有很多单亲父、母承担抚养可怜的孩子们的伟大工作。但是我始终希望我有个父亲不仅在身边,而且还融入我的生活;成为我妈妈呕心沥血地教我做的身体力行的榜样—勤奋诚实的价值观的榜样;责任感和知足感的榜样—所有给孩子展望他们的更加光明的未来的基础的东西。
That’ s why I try every day to be for Michelle and my girls what my father was not for my mother and me.And I’ve met plenty of other people – dads and uncles and men without a family connection –who are trying to break the cycle and give more of our young people a strong male role model.这就是为什么我每天都在为米切尔和我的两个女儿做的而我的父亲无法为我的母亲和我做的。我认识很多其他人—没
有完整家庭的父亲、叔伯和男人—他们正在努力打破局限给更多年轻人一个强大的男性的榜样作用。
Being a good parent – whether you’re gay or straight;a foster parent or a grandparent – isn’t easy.It demands your constant attention, frequent sacrifice, and a healthy dose of patience.And nobody’s perfect.To this day, I’m still figuring out how to be a better husband to my wife and father to my kids.当好父母—不管你是同性恋或异性恋;养父母或祖父母—决非易事。它要求你永远的操心,经常的牺牲,不至于把孩子宠坏的耐心。没有人完美无缺。每当这一天,我都冥思苦想如何做我妻子更好的丈夫和我的孩子们的更好的父亲。
And I want to do what I can as President to encourage marriage and strong families.We should reform our child support laws to get more men working and engaged with their children.And my Administration will continue to work with the faith and other community organizations, as well as businesses, on a campaign to encourage strong parenting and fatherhood.我作为总统希望做的是鼓励婚姻和稳固的家庭。我们应该改革我们的儿童抚养法让更多的男人努力融入他们的孩子们的生活。本届政府将继续与宗教和其他社区组织以及企业合作,鼓励双亲责任和父性。
Because if there’s one thing I’ve learned along the way, it’s that all our personal successes shine a little less brightly if we fail at family.That’s what matters most.When I look back on my life, I won’t be thinking about any particular legislation I passed or policy I promoted.I’ll be thinking about Michelle, and the journey we’ve been on together.I’ll be thinking about Sasha’s dance recitals and Malia’s tennis matches –about the
conversations we’ve had and the quiet moments we’ve shared.I’ll be thinking about whether I did right by them, and whether they knew, every day, just how much they were loved.因为如果说我在这条路上学到了一件事,那就是如果家庭不幸,我们所有人的成功都如同白璧微瑕。这至关重要。当我回顾我的一生,我不会想到我通过的任何法案或我提倡的政策。我想到的是米切尔和我们共同走过的旅程。我想到的是萨沙的个人舞蹈演出和玛利亚的网球比赛—想到我们的交流和我们共享的静谧时光。我想到的是我们为她们做的是否正确,她们是否懂得,她们每天得到多少爱。
That’s what I think being a father is all about.And if we can do our best to be a source of comfort and encouragement to our
kids;if we can show them unconditional love and help them grow into the people they were meant to be;then we will have succeeded.这就是我认为作为一个父亲的全部。如果我们能成为我们的孩子们的满足和鼓励的最好的源泉;如果我们能献给他们无条件的爱和帮助他们成长为他们希望的成年人;那么我们就成功了。
Happy Father’s Day to all the dads out there, and have a great weekend.祝父亲们节日快乐,周末愉快。
第四篇:奥巴马父亲节演讲稿
Obama Father’s Day Speech
• Hi, everybody.This Sunday is Father’s Day, and so I wanted to take a moment to talk about the most important job many of us will ever have – and that’s being a dad.大家好.本周日即将是父亲节, 我想借此机会谈谈我们大家终将面临的最最重要的工作: 做一个父亲.Today we’re blessed to live in a world where technology allows us to connect instantly with just about anyone on the planet.But no matter how advanced we get,there will never be a substitute for the love and support and, most importantly, the presence of a parent in a child’s life.And in many ways, that’s uniquely true for fathers.今天我们很有幸生活在一个能瞬间可和地球上的任何一个人联系的科技时代.但无论科技如何发达, 都没有任何东西可以取代一个家长在孩子生活中的出现, 爱和支持.在许多方面, 对父亲而言尤为如此.I never really knew my own father.I was raised by a single mom and two wonderful grandparents who made incredible sacrifices for me.And there are single parents like my mom all across the country who do a heroic job raising terrific kids.But I still wish I had a dad who was not only around, but involved;another role model to teach me what my mom did her best– values like hard work and integrity;responsibility and delayed– all the things that give a child the foundation to envision a bright future for themselves.我从来不真正地了解我自己的父亲.我是由单亲妈妈和两个和蔼的祖父母带大, 他们为我做了不可想象的牺牲.全国有很多的单亲父母做着同样伟大的带大孩子的工作.但我仍然希望我能有一个父亲不仅在我周围, 而且参与我的生活;作为另一个榜样来告诉我我的母亲尽了她全力所给了我的那些价值, 如努力工作, 品行端正, 责任, 不贪图享乐, 所有这些价值都给一个孩子去设想自己的美好未来的基础.That’s why I try every day to be for Michelle and my girls what my father was not for my mother and me.And I’ve met plenty of other people, dads and uncles and men without a family connection – who are trying to break the cycle and give more of our young people a strong male role model.因此我努力每天都和太太和两个女儿在一起, 这是我的父亲所没有做到的.我也见过许多其他人, 父亲, 叔叔, 或没有家庭联系的男人,他们都在试图去打破常规并给我们的年青人一个强大的男人的榜样.Being a good parent—whether you’re gay or straight, a foster parent or a grandparent—isn’t easy.It demands your constant attention, frequent sacrifice, and aof patience.And nobody’s perfect.To this day, I’m still figuring out how to be a better husband to my wife and father to my kids.做好的父母亲,不管是同性恋或是异性恋,养父母亲或是祖父母都不容易。这需要你持续的关注,频繁的做出牺牲,很健康耐心的心态。
然而, 没有人是完美的.直到今天, 我仍在找寻如何才能做一个妻子的好丈夫和孩子的好父亲的途径.And I want to do what I can as President to encourage strong marriage and strong families.We should reform our child support laws to get more men working and engaged with their children.And my Administration will continue to work with the faith and other community organizations,as well as businesses, on a campaignto encourage strong • • • • • • • • •
parenting and fatherhood.• 作为一个总统, 我想尽我所能去鼓励稳定的婚姻和强大的家庭.我们应该改变我们的孩子抚养的法律以让更多的男人工作并介入到孩子的生活中.我的政府也将真诚地和其它社会组织,也包括企业,打赢更好地抚养孩子和传递父爱的战役。发动强大的如何抚育孩子和为人之父的活动.Because if there’s one thing I’ve learned along the way, it’s that all our personal successes shine a little less brightly if we fail at family.That’s what matters most.因为如果说我成长中学到了什么东西的话,这就是如果我们在家庭上失败了,所有个人的成功都少了一点明亮的光泽。这才是最重要的。
When I look back on my life I won’t be thinking about any particular legislation I passed or policy I promoted.I will thinking about Michelle and the journey we’ve been on together.当我回忆我的一生,我不会想到任何我通过的特定法案或是我力促的政策.我将会想到的是和米歇尔和我们一起走过的岁月。
I’ll be thinking about Sasha’s danceand Malia’s tennis matches, about the conversations we’ve and the quiet moments we’ve shared.I’ll be thinking about whether I did right by them.And whether they knew every day just how much they were loved.我将会想到的是萨沙的舞蹈演出和玛丽亚的网球比赛, 我们在一起的对话和一起共享的静谧时光。我会想我是否做到了。是否他们知道每一天我是如此的爱着他们。That’s what I think being a father is all about.And if we can do our best to be a source of comfort and encouragement to our kids.If we can show them unconditional love and help them grow into the people they were meant to be,then we will have succeeded.So Happy Father’s Day to all the dads out there, and have a great weekend.这就是我认为作为一个父亲应该关心的。如果我们可以尽我们的全力来安慰和鼓励我们的孩子,如果我们可以付出我们无条件的爱帮助他们成为应该成为的人,那么我们就成功了。祝福每一个父亲父亲节快乐, 并过一个美好的周末.• • • • • • • •
第五篇:奥巴马父亲节演讲稿
父亲节演讲稿
Today, this day reminds us that we depend on to create the cornerstone of life, the most important thing is family.We must recognize, and certainly the cornerstone of every father to play a key role.His father, patience, and coaching, both direction, and words and deeds.Father is a successful example, but also continue to promote the success of our people.But if we open and injustice, will not admit too many fathers in their place------too many children's lives where, in too many families, the father of this role is missing.The expense of their home responsibilities, acting like the little boy, not man.The basis of our many family and therefore become weak.In speaking these words, I knew that I am not a perfect father-------I know I made mistakes, but the future will make mistakes;I hope to have more time than it is now at home, accompanied by his wife and children, but can not do.All I know, but still have to say this.Because even though we are not perfect, even though we face the difficulties, but still there are some lessons we must strive to experience as a father, to sum up the--------whether we are black or white, rich or the poor, from poor South or from wealthy suburbs.The first lesson is that we must make to their children an excellent example-------because if we have high expectations for them, we too, should aim high.You have a job is a good thing, there is a college diploma is good enough.If you are getting married, children around the knee, that could not be better, but not the entire weekend at home watching ESPN Sports “sports center.” Many children is under the influence of this growing up near the TV.As a father, as parents, we should spend more time with their children and help them complete their studies, from time to time their TV remote control into the hands of the game or a book.This is the way we lay the cornerstone of the family.We understand that education is the key to creating children's future.We understand that in order to obtain good jobs, they compete with children around the world.We appreciate the hard work required for this purpose, learning and should reach the level of education.To truly compete, they need to graduate high school, then college, and perhaps have to take a postgraduate diploma.We shook their hands, that they moved his ass in the library's seat now!
Bring this idea of excellence instilled into the child's mind, it rely on us as fathers and parents.We have a responsibility to tell our daughters, do not let your own values affect the image of being on television, because I expect you to dream without limit, expect you to pursue those dreams.We have a responsibility to tell our son, although the radio songs glorified violence, but in my house, we celebrate achievements, self-esteem and hard work.We have the responsibility to these expectations, it means that we ourselves must also meet these expectations, we have to do in life, a remarkable example.The second experience was as a father, we should identify with the values passed to the child.Not sympathy, but empathy------to put themselves for the sake of others, see the world from the perspective of others.Sometimes we are so easily obsessed with the “we” word, should forget our obligations to each other.Our society has a cultural concept, keep in mind that these obligations is a sign of weakness--------we should not look weak, so we should not be people that care.However, our young children or children---------------girls will observe this.They will see you ignore his wife punched and kicked, they will observe your selfish, so at school or in the street to see the same behavior behavior is not surprising.This requires that we must lead by example, to have empathy with people and pass to our children.We need to set an example to the children, tell them stronger than other people down, but to help others up.This is why we should take responsibility as a father.We should take these practices to our children a solid foundation.But we should also understand that even if we did, even if we do as fathers and parents to the obligations, even if our government has fulfilled its duties, we will encounter in life are still many difficult challenges.We will still be struggling with the painful days, rain will still be hit.Therefore, we concluded as a father should be the last experience, we can give children is the most precious gift is hope.We hope not words of hope, not the kind of blind optimism, or is the problem faced by the willful neglect.I say hope is the kind of misery in the inner spirit-------Even if all the signs are not optimistic that this spirit we believe a better future waiting for us, as long as willing to work for the the struggle.As long as we have this conviction.We try, we hope, we try to put our house in the most solid foundation to build on.When the wind blows, when the rain when the storm hit our house, we firmly believe that God will guide us, watching us, protect us, to lead his children through the darkest of the hurricane, to a bright bright future.This is Father's Day today, this day I do pray for everyone, which I hold the future of the country's hope.
