Lightning Comment丨 Party emblem shines witness to the power of faith

"The moment he showed his party badge, my tears were going to come out!" Recently, a herdsman uncle in Xinjiang pushed out the vehicles that tourists were stuck in the mire, refused to accept the thank-you fee, and showed the badge of party member on his chest. From his pure, determined gaze, in his proud expression, one could feel the light of faith intensely.

Coincidentally, this reminds people of another thing: a netizen filmed and recorded his father's experience of fighting a fire on the side of the road from the perspective of his daughter. On the way back, the father and daughter encountered a roadside wheat straw burning with drying, and the smoke was thick. Not far away was the woods, and when my father saw the situation, he immediately took a shovel from the car, rushed forward, shoveled the soil with a shovel, and put out the fire for half an hour before putting out the fire. Afterwards, the daughter said that she must give her father a prize, but the father said, "I am a party member, what award do I need!" ”

"In the wind, in the rain, I can see you; in the snow, in the fire, I can see you." This is a lyric in "One Party Member, One Flag", which fully demonstrates the advanced nature of Communist Party members. The flag is silent, but it can gather great strength; the example is speechless, but it can inspire the fighting spirit. "I'm a party member, I'll go first!" "I'm a party member, come with me!" Whether it is in the bloody war years or in the dangerous disaster relief scene in peacetime, such bold words are often heard. This is the responsibility of communists to stand at the head of the tide and be fearless, which is both a loud confession and a shining "label". "The masses often see you in their eyes, and the people often think of you in their hearts." Remember the extraordinary year of 2020, in the face of the menacing new crown epidemic and the sudden flood beasts, one by one Communist Party members took out the hardness, sharpness and backbone of "sacrificing who I am", stood out, rushed up, and opened up, and set up eye-catching benchmarks for party members and cadres on the front line of prevention and control and the levee of the war flood, leading the masses to fight the epidemic, fighting the wind and rain, and becoming stormy fighters and ordinary heroes. "In order to protect people's lives and safety, we can open up anything!"

"You can see it in ordinary times, you can stand up at critical moments, and you can see it in times of crisis." Reliable, trustworthy, and defensible is the correct way for a true Communist Party member to behave and do things. Whether or not we can "shine" our first identity and "do it in a down-to-earth manner and walk in the forefront" is related to the image of party members, the prestige of the party, and the great cause of the party. Looking back at the past, from Jiao Yulu, a good cadre who led the Lankao masses to cure the "three evils" and uproot the roots of poverty, to Kong Fansen, a pioneer of the times who took the initiative to go to the frontier and guard the snowy land, from Zhang Guimei, a model of shi morality who let his dream fly over the mountains, to Huang Wenxiu and Zhang Xiaojuan, cadres who lived in the countryside and sacrificed their youth... With the dedication posture of "bowing down to the cows of the people" and the responsibility of "Taishan pressing the top and not bending down", these brilliant models of the times sang "You are a link and the masses are closely linked, and you are a torch held high in the forefront of development." Party members and cadres should carefully look at these mirrors of their original intentions and big hearts, aim their perspective at the masses, bring their emotions close to the people, measure the people's livelihood with their feet, be close to the will of the people with their hearts, resolve the people's worries with their feelings, take the lead in urgent, difficult, dangerous, and arduous posts, and compete for the "Pioneer Award," the "Pacesetter Award," and the "People's Heart Award."

A small party emblem that shines brightly shows the firm, simple, and unforgettable faith of the communists, shining in the sky! (Text/Zhou Jianguo)
