Five Virtues I Admire Most

The modern man is so realistic that he is unable to appreciate the sterling virtues of life. The five virtues which I admire most are truth, honesty, straightforwardness, bravery and patriotism.

Now I will explain the reasons for my admiring these virtues. First of all let’s take the truth. The truth is a virtue which nobody can challenge. A man of truth is a man of power. Mahatma Gandhi defeated the mighty British empire with the weapon of his power of truth which he pursued in a forceful way.

Now, let us take honesty. An honest man is the most reliable man and everybody is ready to believe in him. An honest businessman always has a good number of customers. But a dishonest man loses all his customers one by one.

Straightforwardness is also a great virtue. A man who expresses his mind freely earns the admiration of one and all. Everybody knows that such a man has nothing to hide. If such a man finds anything wrong in the behaviour of anybody, he tells the latter to his face and the latter generally doesn’t take it ill and improves his ways.

Bravery is a wonderful virtue. Many good man in the world cannot achieve success in life simply because they lack courage. If they were brave, they could do a lot of good to themselves and to others. Soldier has to be brave otherwise, he will lose the battle. Real bravery is selfless in nature. A really brave man serves others or saves others’ life selflessly.

Patriotism is a great virtue. It is essential for all of us to love our country. A man who does not love his country is really born at a wrong place and a wrong time. A really good man is always patriotic but not of the extreme type.
