Principle Meng then took the stage to deliver an address. Drawing analogies to bamboo rooting deep in soil, lotus flowers gathering strength quietly, and cicadas lying dormant for years, he encouraged the graduates to accumulate steadily before shining brilliantly. His heartfelt words filled the young students with warm, unwavering strength.
