Honesty takes birth where there is trust, respect then follows in. However, the question we all need to ask is, what are the circumstances that lead us to dishonesty? And that's what will make one introspect, further on, it would also give an adult food for thought, that what leads the child to dishonesty?
It is often very easy to preach about honesty and respect to a child, but does that always mean the one preaching about honesty is also honest with the child? Let's understand a child's perspective about the same through a story!
The above mentioned story is an eye-opener for every adult and a teacher; the values of honesty, truth and respect were instilled appropriately without humiliation and in a fair manner.
ईमानदारी एक ऐसा गुण है जिसे सभी लोग अपनाना चाहते हैं और हमेशा ही प्रशंसा करते हैं कि वह व्यक्ति ईमानदार है ऐसा करने से उस व्यक्ति को सम्मान मिलता है, अतः हम यह कह सकते हैं कि ईमानदारीऔर सम्मान दोनों ही एक सिक्के के दो पहलू हैं जो एक दूसरे के साथ स्वत: ही जुड़े हुए हैं।अपनी गलती को स्वीकार करने की क्षमता प्रत्येक में नहीं होती है हालातों केअनुसार बेईमानी करने पर हम मजबूर हो जाते हैं,परंतु स्थिति केअनुसार निर्णय लेते हुए स्वयं को दोषी ठहराते हुए,जो कदम किसी के द्वारा उठाया जाता है वह व्यक्ति वास्तव में महान हैऔर सम्माननीय भी है।
Once honesty deeply sets itself in our heart, soul and mind then the person becomes virtuous. For each one of us, honesty and respect is perceived differently and to understand perspectives of different human beings could make the world a better place to live in.
Children are the shadow of adults around them and
they follow, learn and observe every little thing, the onus of a child’s future
and behaviour is on the adults around them, so if mistakes and lessons are
learnt with honesty, trust and respect the chances of dishonesty, distrust and
disrespect is squared down to zero!
