There is a belief
that a good person is one who is able to learn the moral and ethical lessons
that govern human life and diligently follow them. Besides this, he or she has
to responsibly carry out many social roles in their own individual capacity as teachers,
doctors, helpers, drivers to mention a few.
Is this belief going in line with what you think that makes a person good?
Defining what it
takes to be a good person is rather hard, and there will be as many definitions
as there are good people. Barring this fix, there are certain basic elements for
all. And, to me, the given belief on an ideal person is very much to my
definition.
Being part of humanity,
all good people are expected to know certain moral lessons and ethical canons
which may not be written or recorded; rather they are there in all milieus. This
is a prerequisite and the same is sure to add a shade of quality to the person.
Besides this, I am also under the belief that simply knowing these things is
one thing and meticulously following them is something else. Anyone can know
them, but not all can follow them all the time. A good person will.
Is that enough to
make one a good person? No. I sternly believe that every good person does have to
put on a socially binding role whatever that is. A doctor has to be compassionate
to his clientele while being professional, a driver has to be cautious about
the vehicle and the road he manages and all parents must go the extra mile to keep
their children socially useful and civic conscious. The harmonious social life
calls for such attributes from all good human beings.
Besides all these
things, I feel that a person, in my definition, needs to cherish a heart that
would enable him or her to live a little more for others. I believe that such an
attribute will add a new edge to anyone. My definition of a good person is complete.
