Every one of us wants
to live a life filled with happiness and satisfaction. Being moral is one way
to achieve a kind of living to its fullest capacity. We need to be moral
because this reflects our character and personality. We are being guided by all
the moral codes that we follow so that we may only travel on the right path. It
will eventually lead us to our ultimate goals, thus succeeding in life. If we
are moral, we feel confident that we are not hurting others and perhaps this
increases our self-esteem. As we go on with our life, we won’t be having any
enemies though I must admit that others are a bit uncomfortable with too good
people. Well, I do not know exactly why they act that way. Maybe, they are just
ashamed of themselves for they cannot emulate such fine subsistence or they are
in the verge of being compared to other persons.
Anyway,
another reason why we should be moral is because there will be good
consequences for all good words and deeds done by those righteous people. There
are certain benefits that we can derive out of being brilliant such as keeping
us away from harm and trouble. Furthermore, we will have zero percent chance of
being jailed in a dungeon for committing hideous crimes because we are bounded
with ethical standards of not engaging into immoral commotions for self-gain.
As the saying goes, "One should
treat others as one would like others to treat oneself." I think it is
a universal truth that we were created as decent persons, expected to act
following admirable norms so we may promote not only our own welfare but of
others’ well-being as well. Along with this, we pray that all people treasure and
relate to one another.
Moreover,
trying to be moral implies the fact of being raised by our parents with good
manners and right conduct. If we are confronted with problems that require the
best decision, we can immediately think for a positive judgment to address the
issue. Being moral helps us to have a superior mindset for it fosters both the
cognitive development and emotional awareness of the person. All the things
that a moral person can execute are simply for the common good. If and only if
we are moral, we can have peace of mind and can work on with our jobs to the
fullest, thus serving our community to meet its ends. Also, it only proves that
we are indeed human beings because we actualize what we really are. It is
important that we exist in this world as honorable citizens for the reason that
this affects our society and the future generations. We contribute to our
nation with the kind of well-brought-up behavior that we lay bare to others. As
the civilized populace rises in number, the status of our state will be
uplifted and this can be seen through economic, social and political
observations. We become role models to others, making them do only right things
and avoid carrying out wrong endeavors or inappropriate resolutions.
We
also want to breathe day after day pursuing principled attitudes and upright
customs because we fear to be punished by our fellows and especially by God. If
we perpetrate appalling acts and offend the authorities and public, there is a
hundred percent chance of paying fines and being imprisoned for a lifetime. The
worst thing there is that we may even lose excellent relationships we have with
our family or friends. We also do not want to be the center of scandal and
ignominy that’s why we try to please others to gain their trust and sympathy as
we conform to socially acceptable demeanor. If we are raised according to
praiseworthy values, we can earn more friends and in the end, they will lend a
hand when we are in grave danger. These ideals strengthen our faith and gives
us hope that someday, love will reign all over the world; that even in little
ways of benevolence and care for others, we make this world a better place to
live in.
Morality
signifies the unequivocal dignity and genuineness of human person. By being
moral, great rewards await us. The good intention that we currently possessed
towards others explicitly establish our place in heaven. It nevertheless opens
our psyche to a newfangled kaleidoscope of opportunities for financial growth,
spiritual intensification and perchance, transcendence. Being moral also wards
off confusion and chaos from ruining our lives, thus being alive with firm
beliefs and convictions. In such a way, we won’t have a very hard time
discerning simple or sophisticated rules and regulations because we rationally
utilize our brainpower in distinguishing right from wrong. Besides, complying
with steadfast etiquette and allows us to have a more unpretentious, more
adaptable life. And behind those things are unswerving motivational factors that
influence us to excel better in our own careers, consequently advancing our
competence and propensities en route for their holistic capacity. Remember that
when we follow proper protocols or comportment, we gain the respect of others.
“To be moral is to be human.” We are not
perfect and we may create mistakes or sins and have this sense of guilt, but
these are all charged to experience, then our intellect would process them to
obtain moral lessons. When we also converse about being moral, it denotes the
necessity to reckon the concepts of conscience, freedom, ultimate purpose of
human existence and dignity. The things I have mentioned indicate our personal
and societal duty to protect our worth as valuable creations of God, therefore
promoting also our rights for the sake of mankind. They speak about our very
own enjoyment and maturity, sparking change to all dwellers of this planet.
Yes, the real world presents us with more profound and complicated
circumstances. But we need to be moral because that is the way it should be –
for God, for human race, for our own safety.
