Honesty is always admirable in the family, civil society, friends and across the globe. A person with honesty is respected by all. Building the character of honesty entirely depends on his/her family values and ethics and his/her surrounding environment. Parents showing honest behaviour and character in front of their children create an impact on the children, and we say honesty lies in their genes. Honesty can also be developed practically, which requires proper guidance, encouragement, patience and dedication.
Self-respect refers to loving oneself and behaving with honour. An individual who has self-respect would treat himself with honour furthermore lacking self-respect. It is a matter of disgrace for an individual who does not respect himself; he should certainly not expect respect from others; nobody likes to treat such an individual with respect. Self-respect improves the morality of the individual who has good ethical nature. Hence, self-respect makes you a better person.
I have sweet and loving grandparents. My grandmother's name is Mrs Asha Mewara. She is 70 years old. She is very caring. Her hair has turned grey. Everyday she worships Mother Durga very sincerely. She gives me 'prasad'. She knows many fairy tales and stories of 'Ramayana' and ‘Mahabharata’. My grandfather is also sweet. His name is Mr.Om Prakash Mewara. He is 75 years old. He goes out for a walk every morning. He loves to watch news channels on TV. He is very wise. He teaches me many things. My grandparents are my guide, my teacher and my friends. I learn many things while enjoying their company. They love me deeply...I also love and respect my grandparents a lot. We play together in the evening. I am thankful to God for blessing me with such wonderful grandparents.
