Duty
loyalty usually means being responsible for a task or performing a duty. Whenever
we talk about any responsibility, it is very important to understand the
importance of time, place and position. It
is also our duty to take care of each member, to listen to them and show
responsibility towards each other, be it children, family or other
acquaintances. We can also fulfil our duty by fulfilling small needs.
In
the same way, every citizen living in a society should have sympathy,
understanding, help each other and live in love among themselves. If
we look at a large scale, neither our society nor the country should be harmed
by any of our actions, whether it is of private interest or public. A
person is considered responsible only when he/she has the audacity to uptake
any task.
These
things are also given priority in school.
Carrying
out other responsibilities of the school along with teaching such as resolving
students' personal and educational problems, monitoring and maintaining the
school premises, taking care of cleanliness and participating in various
activities, helping them, helping others, honesty and working with full
devotion, etc. make a person diligent or 'conscientious'. It
has often been seen that we are very conscious of our rights but whenever it
comes to duty, we want to get rid of inattention or work which should not
happen.
Just
as we work with integrity, it should be our take to make children also learn.
These attributes seem small but make a person great such as being disciplined
in school, respecting elders, love for youngers, caring and sympathy for plants
and animals, not spreading garbage, maintaining school property like buses,
chairs, tables, boards, dusters, etc. Along with a good work ethic, sometimes
circumstances also require us to care and support the weaker and needy members
of our family.
There
is a great need to teach moral values to children, this value will make them
a responsible citizen. In developed nations like Japan, students do their own
school and classroom cleaning and other tasks which develop the qualities of
responsibility and independence in them.
When we
all together take responsibility for any task, then that work will be good on
our own and we can knowingly and unknowingly make our home, society, workplace
and country beautiful and peaceful.
