Comrade Yang Huaiyuan said: In the long journey of life, there are often some major turning points related to life.My major life turning point was to learn from Lei Feng, which determined my life for most of my life.I was born in a poor peasant family in rural Anhui. Since I was a child, I begged and worked as a long-term worker with my elder brother, and suffered from the oppression and exploitation of the old society.After the founding of New China, I joined the Chinese People's Liberation Army gloriously and joined the Communist Party gloriously. In 1960, I transferred from the army to the Shanghai Maritime Bureau. In 1962, he worked as a passenger transport attendant on Minzhu No. 5. In March 1963, Chairman Mao issued a call to learn from Comrade Lei Feng. I was immediately attracted by Lei Feng's vivid deeds and lofty spirit, and my mind was greatly shocked.At that time, the Democracy No. 5 ship I was working on was scheduled to run on Shanghai, Qingdao and other routes. Among the passengers, there were especially many old men, old ladies and women with children.Most of them went to the south to visit relatives with big bags and small bags.Every time the ship arrives at the port, there are always some old people and women with children standing in front of a large pile of luggage worrying.After learning from Lei Feng, I would rather get off work late, carry the luggage for these difficult passengers, and then clean up.At first I carried my handcart over my shoulder, but that way I could only carry a few pieces of luggage at a time.I thought of a small shoulder pole I brought with me when I transferred from the army, so I used it to carry it.Sometimes there are many passengers in need of help, and one load cannot meet the needs, so I will carry two or three loads.Some passengers were in a hurry to catch the train, so I helped them pick the station. For more than 30 years, I have insisted on carrying a shoulder pole without interruption. "I carry a shoulder pole for the people, and I can't be idle in spring, summer, autumn and winter; I pick the ice and snow to melt spring water, and I pick the cool breeze to send the summer. Forward.” For the female passenger with a baby in her arms, it is very difficult to wash the diapers of the children. There is a large bag of dirty diapers, and the children do not have clean diapers to change.Encouraged by Lei Feng's spirit, I finally took the difficult step of washing diapers for female passengers as one of my reserved services.When a female passenger with a baby was seasick and couldn't wash their diapers, I washed them for them, and then took them to the greenhouse to dry and fold them and gave them to them.The service principle I set for myself is: "I would rather trouble myself than make passengers inconvenient; I would rather sweat more than make passengers difficult." I deeply feel that if the service work is done well, it will have great impact on passengers It has a great political influence and plays the role of spreading new morality, new fashion, and new ideas.They often elevate these small things to the party's leadership and the superiority of socialism to praise, always thanking them over and over again, "Thanks to the blessing of the Communist Party and thanks to the blessing of socialism." "A small cabin connects the world, and ordinary work brings thousands of families together. Although the broom pole is small, the political influence is great."Learning from Comrade Lei Feng made me see the significance of passenger service work.

Think of Lei Feng first in one thing, imitate Lei Feng in one thing, compare Lei Feng in one thing later, learn from Lei Feng all the year round, be like Lei Feng all your life.Yang Huaiyuan is the incarnation of Lei Feng!
