What makes a home? Love, sympathy and confidence. It is a place where kindly affections exist among all the members of the family. The parents take good care of their children, and the children are interested in the activities of their parents. Thus all of them are bound together by affection, and they find their home to be the cheeriest place in the world.
A home without love is no more a home than a body without a soul is a man. Every civilized person is a social being. No one should live alone. A man may lead a successful and prosperous life, but prosperity alone can by no means insure happiness. Many great personages in the world history had deep affections for their homes.
Your home may be poor and humble, but your duty lies there. You should try to make it cheerful and comfortable. The greater the difficulties, the richer will be your reward.
A home is more than a family dwelling. It is a school in which people are trained for citizenship. A man will not render good service to his country if he can do nothing good for his home; for in proportion as he loves his home, will he love his country. The home is the birthplace of true patriotism. It is the secret of social welfare and national greatness. It is the basis and origin of civilization.
何以為家？家就是愛、認同和信賴。因為有家，人們的情感得以凝聚。父母給孩子以庇護，孩子也關注父母的行為。於是，父母和孩子因愛而緊密相連，家成為世上最令人愉悅的地方。
沒有愛的家庭，如同沒有靈魂的軀體，也就不能稱其為“家”。作為社會的一員，沒有人能獨自生存。一個人可能過著成功而富足的生活，但錦衣玉食並不一定就幸福。世界曆史上的許多偉人，都對家有著深深的眷戀。
也許你的家貧窮而簡陋，但這正是你的職責所在。你應該努力使你的家更溫馨舒適，麵臨的困難愈大，你的收獲愈多。
