Lei Feng's spirit is brilliant.

What we call learning from Lei Feng today is not really learning from Lei Feng. The activity of learning from Lei Feng on March 5 every year is more memorable, so there is a saying: "Uncle Lei Feng will come in March and leave in April."

Lei Feng's spirit is embodied in concrete behavior, and our understanding of Lei Feng's spirit is also based on his concrete behavior. In this way, people's understanding of Lei Feng's spirit is narrow and specific, and it is of course a misunderstanding to understand helping the elderly, helping the young and helping others as learning from Lei Feng. Lei Feng's spirit is natural and unpretentious, not artificially created. It embodies Comrade Lei Feng's philosophy of life. Everything Lei Feng does is basically what we can do. The reason why we can't be like him is that our philosophy of life can't reach the point where we forget our personal interests like him. We use greatness to describe Comrade Lei Feng, which also shows that not everyone can reach the spirit of Lei Feng, and only some of our actions can meet the requirements of Lei Feng's spirit.

The essence of Lei Feng's spirit is to help others when they are in trouble. We can't ask the public to help others like Comrade Lei Feng. In this case, Lei Feng's ordinary cannot be sublimated into greatness.

Times are changing, our country has entered the era of commodity exchange, and once selfless help has become paid service, which inevitably challenges the traditional Lei Feng spirit. Lei Feng's spirit is eternal, but the behavior that embodies Lei Feng's spirit is not eternal. Lei Feng spirit is the spirit that our society needs. What people say about love today is actually another way of saying Lei Feng's spirit. Lei Feng's spirit is an expression of love, but the love expressed by Lei Feng's spirit is more concrete and real, while the love we are talking about now is very abstract and extensive. Everyone can create ways to show their love at will, unlike the spirit of Lei Feng, which is reflected in the specific behavior of Comrade Lei Feng.

We must accept the formal denial of the traditional Lei Feng spirit brought by the changes of the times, and admit that it is also an improvement to turn selfless help into paid service. Of course, we should not turn everything into paid services. Love itself embodies the spirit of Lei Feng who serves the society for free. Therefore, our society will have selfless help, and not everything needs paid services.

In my ideal society, not everyone has the selfless dedication like Comrade Lei Feng, but everyone can help others with little effort. Our insignificant help can help others solve big problems, which cannot be measured by value.
