Filial Piety First

The traditional Chinese five relationships are [ruler and minister, parents, husband and wife, brothers, and friends]. Parents have always been at the top, so it is said that [filial piety comes first among all virtues]. [Filial piety], a purely Chinese old concept, has long been followed by the footsteps of the Chinese, across the ocean, and transplanted to every corner of the world where there are Chinese. This is a fact recognized by everyone. Confucius said: Filial piety means treating the living with courtesy. [Dead] burying with courtesy, and even offering sacrifices with courtesy. The main reason is that etiquette cannot be violated. So I believe everyone will understand the concept of [respecting the dead and remembering the ancestors, so that the people's morality will return to the thick]
