Reading notes: Kennedy's exciting and thought-provoking legacy
John Kennedy

Ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country. "

"When the dust of history clears, it is not the war or political victory that makes us famous in history, but the contribution to the human spirit."

The torch has been handed over to a new generation of Americans,

We will never negotiate out of fear, and we will never be afraid to negotiate. "

Because only when we have enough armaments without doubt can we be sure that we will never use them without doubt.

Since the founding of the United States, every generation of Americans has been called to prove their loyalty to their country. The graves of American youth who died in response to the call are all over the world.

Kennedy's road to politics is a standard elite route. Brave sailor tempered by the fire of World War II, handsome appearance, high flyers of Harvard Law School, youngest senator, best-selling author on courage and leadership, beautiful and elegant wife, God seems to have given Kennedy everything he can.

Smart people know how to stand with morality and trends. Kennedy, who knows that "you can't be rich without helping the poor", is obviously a smart man. Because of his extraordinary wisdom and dramatic withdrawal from life, Kennedy rose dramatically and became a new mythical brand in the United States after Washington and Lincoln.

Among the American presidents who made history, few people have Kennedy's historical consciousness and writing ability, and few people are willing to be as open as him. He can not only objectively evaluate his behavior, but also deeply care about how future historians and contemporary voters will evaluate his behavior.

Kennedy's popularity is also related to this. Obviously, Kennedy's strong sense of self-realization, desire for action, pursuit of high standards of behavior and strong will to win not only catered to the tastes of young people, but also became a force to inspire this country to become stronger and more civilized, making countless people remember Kennedy's name.

Apart from personality factors, there are many reasons for Kennedy's growth: the books he read, his travels, and the broadening of his horizons brought by his companions, experiences and responsibilities.

He longed for "first" strongly, pursued it persistently, and finally reached his dream place. What supports all this is his unforgettable high fighting spirit.

This love for political life had a far-reaching impact on Kennedy's political career. On the one hand, it inspired him to rush to the political peak quickly, on the other hand, this fighting spirit also helped him lead the United States optimistically.

Facts have proved that even in difficult times, Kennedy can still bring hope and adventure to Washington and the whole country. After the Soviet Union successfully landed on the moon, Kennedy proposed that the United States must sail in this new ocean and become a "world space travel power". Finally, the United States finally "defeated" the Soviet Union on the moon.

Kennedy wrote, "If we are strong, our strength is the most convincing statement. If we are weak, our words will not help. " This is exactly what Kennedy pursued, that is, "the important thing is to strive for the first place."

The courage of life is often not as dramatic as the courage at the critical moment; But this courage is also a spectacular mixture of victory and tragedy. A person does everything he has to do-regardless of personal gains and losses, regardless of obstacles, dangers and pressures-which is the cornerstone of all human morality.

Because everyone must go deep into his soul to find courage.

The most easily overlooked thing is Kennedy's spirit of serving the society.

"Give more to whom and ask for more."

A big tree knows its length when it falls. This is Lincoln's favorite sentence. Some of them left their jobs, and some of them lived in poverty after leaving office, but they left people with a rich political and spiritual legacy, a higher image than when they stood in high positions, and increased people's confidence and courage in the future.

In the eyes of those rich people, the best "legacy" left to their children is not peanuts that make them no longer need to struggle, but that they rely on their own efforts to obtain successful spiritual wealth and service consciousness to repay the society.

"You can live a serious life, also can live a life that is not serious. No matter what choice you make, I love you. But if you decide to lead an immoral life, I won't have much time to spend with you. You have to think for yourself. " This made him set his ambition from that moment on: to live a "serious life".

The core of his family education is public service. They put the highest value in life on public service.

He-a handsome Bostonian-was there, calling on a generation to contribute to others and the whole country and create great achievements with a speech that later became part of the American code of conduct. At that time, the group of people wore thick winter clothes and marched in the snow-covered streets with expectation. A country full of youth and vitality is looking forward to a promising new decade.

Life is unfair. "We can't choose the fate given to us by life, but we can choose how to spend our lives. John F. Kennedy chose to live in the public sphere and firmly believed that our country could overcome any difficulties, as he witnessed. He chose to live as a leader, not driven by naive optimism, but inspired by firm realism, which is what his wife Jackie called "idealism without fantasy". It is this idealism-passion and calmness-that inspired this country and the whole world half a century ago.

John F. Kennedy inspired the American spirit, made mankind land on the moon, saved a continent from tyranny, defeated the Great Depression, and created the best hope in the world for the 13 colony so far. If we continue to carry forward this spirit today, I know that our generation will respond to this call with extraordinary ability like previous generations.

As a country, we can do many things. We can climb to the top. We can meet any challenge as long as we are willing to ask ourselves: What can we do for our country as long as we are willing to dominate the fate of the United States.

In my opinion, this passage accurately reproduces the fearless and noble spirit of continuous life that we celebrate today. This spirit inspires us, illuminates our way forward, and accompanies us to the new frontier of our times.

We can't forget that we are descendants of this president, who showed us our potential. Because of his lofty ideals, more people are becoming rich; More people contribute;

Time is always the best judge. What goes by is a bubble, and what remains is a treasure. Behind people's enthusiasm for the Kennedy family is not only nostalgia, but also a lasting respect for politicians who are determined to improve society and care for the disadvantaged.

In the final analysis, the most fundamental bond between us is that we all live on this planet, we all breathe the same air, we all cherish the future of future generations, and we are not eternal. ..... Let's re-examine our attitude towards the Cold War, remember that we are not caught in an argument, and try to accumulate opinions for debate.

However, its decisive force is probably like John F. Kennedy's steely will to endure spine tingling and smile at the public.

But none of this weakened Kennedy's optimism. It is precisely because of his familiarity with tragedy that he can have both the desire to enjoy the world and the desire to improve it.

At a very young age, Kennedy's father (Joseph Kennedy, the American ambassador to Britain during Roosevelt's time) tried every means to drive him to participate in various competitions, and he was never satisfied without winning the first place, which made Kennedy's life full of fighting capacity and heroism. Kennedy's entry into politics was also inseparable from his father's encouragement.

For Kennedy, politics is more like a sport, which can stimulate his passion and feel the joy of life in the fierce competition.

"He made American dreams come true"? As a legendary president, Kennedy's greatest spiritual wealth may be the pursuit of dreams and the desire for a vibrant life.

"If someone thinks that politics is like a voyage or a military battle, it is something with a specific purpose, something that will float away after the purpose is realized, then you are wrong. Politics is not a trivial matter for the masses, but a way of life. "

Kennedy behind the camera: he was ill and died many times in his life.

Nine times out of ten, there will be unpleasant things in life, so no matter how difficult it is, we must summon up courage to face it. Everyone wants to have courage, but it can't be seen or touched, and it comes and goes without a trace. Meteors may be fleeting, but courage can cut through the night sky and bring light to mankind. We should look for courage, then have the courage to face life bravely and let it play the strongest sound of life!

He likes outdoor sports, and he does most of them well. No matter what he does, he will do his best.

But no matter then or later, no one knows that this busy and attractive person often suffers. His character is never to give up anything.

They teach children to make every effort to fight for what they believe, and not to be afraid of competition; They teach children to face life bravely and not to complain.

He and his comrades-in-arms disappeared for a week. Everyone thought they were all drowned. But John's endless courage and sense of responsibility saved his comrades-in-arms and himself. He won't give up hope while life or strength still exists.

That night, although he was very tired after swimming in the water for nearly 12 hours, he drifted away from the island and sought help. In a week, he tried again and again to seek support for his 1 1 comrades. They have neither food nor fresh water.

But he also has several advantages. One is his courage, the other is his honesty. The most important thing is that John himself is determined to succeed. As always, nothing can stop him. He works so hard that he can hardly sleep at night.

President Kennedy in life is a gentle, good at compromise and easy to forgive others. He is a gentleman, a man with high taste in life, and has his own views on furniture and books. President Kennedy's demands on daily life are also quite high. Jacqueline still remembers that even after a 45-minute lunch break at the White House, he would put on his pajamas and lie down. Not only that, Kennedy sometimes lies on the ground with the children and watches fitness programs on TV. They also do aerobics together, and their toes touch the children. He likes children playing around him.

With strong faith and amazing courage, she suffered the blow of fate and became the source of spiritual strength of the prominent Kennedy family.

I hope my grandchildren have the strength to bear the inevitable difficulties, disappointments and sorrows in life. Accept them with dignity and feel sorry for yourself.

During World War II, his ship was sunk by a Japanese destroyer, and he fell into the water with 1 1. After seven days of hard work, he led the crew to escape from death. He is a confident and persistent person. When Democrats doubted whether he could successfully run for president, he said, "I'm not interested in running for vice president. I'm interested in running for president." If I want to be elected president, I will succeed in 1960 "; If I don't succeed this time, then I may have to wait eight years, when some new faces will appear and I will step aside. "

Bacon said: "when I was young, travel was part of education;" In old age, travel is a part of experience. "

John Kennedy is a star president, which makes people feel radiant. His experience is legendary: a rich man, a hero of World War II, a sick patient, a best-selling author, an excellent journalist, a Pulitzer Prize winner, the youngest congressman in American history, and the youngest president in American history ... His bright smiling face and charming demeanor make Americans unforgettable.

She told how this ill-fated family managed to breathe in the shadow of death and live a good life. She said, "I don't remember feeling sorry for myself. We don't want this feeling. "

Of course, the Kennedy family will never be satisfied with being different. They have the determination to cross the rubicon in life, which makes them always strive for the first place.

The three brothers of the "golden generation" of the Kennedy family successfully interpreted the new American dream of climbing to a new height by serving the public.

One fifth of the population in society, that is, 20%, is "opposed to everything" and always stands by and makes irresponsible remarks.

Chasing is better and more exciting than getting a feeling.

If we really have the courage and will to achieve this change.

They also witnessed Kennedy's tireless diligence at all stages of his illness: books and notebooks piled up at any time in his hospital bed. At the age of 35, his monograph "Brave Man" written in his hospital bed won the Pulitzer Prize that year.

"An idealist without foresight."

I will not shirk this responsibility, and I welcome it. I don't believe that any of us want to exchange places with others or people of other times. The energy, faith and loyalty we put into this effort will illuminate our country and all those who serve it, and the light from this flame will surely illuminate the whole world.

As for family education, so far, no political giant can beat it. Old Joseph, the only son, started at the grassroots level. Although he is very talented and smart, there are still setbacks and difficulties in starting a business. Therefore, understanding the spirit and belief is the only factor to enhance his sense of existence. He always feels that it is not good enough not to be the first.

Under such pressure, the four Kennedy brothers all showed strong character, outstanding ability and strong idol temperament. John's boldness and talent, Robert's composure and carefulness, and Edward's eloquence and determination make the Kennedy family a beautiful landscape in American politics, representing ideals, confidence and hope.

"Incredibly, during President Kennedy's administration, he spent almost every day in pain that ordinary people might not be able to bear." . Despite his illness, Kennedy was never intimidated. On the contrary, he is always so "radiant" in public.

A clear conscience is our only reliable reward, and history is the final judge of our actions. Let's go forward and guide the country we love. "

A young president like Kennedy, full of personal ideals, must also call for patriotism and nationalism, so that people can make brave contributions to the country.

Speaking of John F. Kennedy's amazing achievements in his short life, all this is due to the great building-brown sandstone house, which has been passed down for centuries. Some people say that people who have a good childhood know how to stick to their ideals completely. It is precisely because of the good times of living in the brownstone that John F. Kennedy has a good mentality of bearing the dream of family president. However, when frustrated, he is unwilling to persevere bravely in a building that has precipitated centuries of culture. In the end, his success has created a brilliant life.

"Someone asked, why do you want to go to the moon? Why should we aim at this? They may also ask, why climb the highest mountain? We choose to go to the moon, we choose to go to the moon in this era, and we have to do other things, not because it is simple, but because it is difficult. In order to do this, to do this well, and to be the first to do this in ten years, we must be bold. " We don't intend to stay behind. In this decade, we will catch up and go forward bravely. We chose to go to the moon not because it is easy, but because it is very difficult. "

"Don't forget, there used to be one here. In a blink of an eye, it's called Camelot. " Camelot is King Arthur's palace in English legend, full of heroic agitation and unique noble and elegant charm of chivalry, which is exactly Kennedy in the eyes of Americans.

When Kennedy was president, he spent every day in pain. Schulsinger, Kennedy's former assistant, said that he was in frequent contact with Kennedy, but he never knew that he was suffering, except that he often couldn't bend down to hold his baby. Schulsinger said, "I have never heard him say anything about self-pity or complaining."

It is much easier to sit by the map and discuss what to do than to deal with these things seriously.

But he never blessed any illusion of avoiding or delaying this writing crisis. His high spirits brought great hope to Washington and the American people, as well as the courage to go forward regardless of everything.

Kennedy also pays great attention to his appearance. I have seen hundreds of photos of John F. Kennedy, and none of them are wearing bad ties or short-sighted glasses. Kennedy always appeared with impeccable charm.

Although we are ready. It calls on us to shoulder the heavy responsibility of the long-term struggle to meet the dawn, gain joy from hope year after year, and be patient in difficulties; This is a struggle against the public enemies of mankind-tyranny, poverty, disease and war itself.

So let's start over. Both sides remember that comity does not mean weakness, but sincerity always needs to be verified.

Turn our good words into good things.

He 1955 failed to be elected to the school board, which is a disappointing new experience for a person who is used to winning.

He has a well-trained and analytical mind. Even his calm nature is rational, not intuitive. He doesn't hate his enemies, and he doesn't cry for disasters. He is neither willing nor good at grandiose words and deeds.

I remind myself again and again every day that my spiritual life and material life depend on the efforts of others-the living and the dead, so I must try my best to give others the same amount.

They said I created a myth, but there was no myth. If there is any myth, it is perseverance. Don't be afraid of failure. You can continue to try after failure. This is the privilege of youth. "

Robert Kennedy

It's like this:' All arrogance will eventually reap the bitter fruit full of tears. God will make people pay a heavy price because of their excessive arrogance ...' "

In memory of his brother Robert Kennedy, Edward Kennedy mentioned a sentence that Robert once said many times: Some people only pay attention to what has happened and ask "why", while I expect what has never happened and ask "why can't this happen?"

For a long time, we have surrendered our personal abilities and values to the pursuit of material things. Wealth can neither bring talent and courage, nor measure wisdom and knowledge. It can't inspire our compassion and dedication. Wealth cannot measure everything. Only spiritual things are the most important. Wealth is really important. But this does not touch our pride as Americans.

Edward? Kennedy

"We have no achievements and virtues, and we are fortunate to be born in a comfortable environment in the United States. Therefore, we are responsible for those who are less fortunate than us. "

Teddy Kennedy recalled: "He wanted us to keep smiling no matter what difficulties we met.

When he delivered his defeat speech, he thought clearly, "For all people who share our interests, our cause is still there, our ideas are still there, our hopes are still there, and our dreams will never die."

What is the meaning of dreams? Even when he was diagnosed with a malignant brain tumor and had only one year left to live, Edward still didn't give up the plan to promote universal health insurance and forced the sick people to vote.

He made me realize idealism again, and politics can also have dreams.
