Write an essay on patrotism​

Answers

Answer:

A patriot is always concerned for the progress of his country.

All his acts and moves are guided by the thought that his country should be the fore-runner in the comity of nations in every sphere. But there are people who pretend to be patriot but do anything for their own interest even at the cost of their native country. Such people are very dangerous to the country than the real enemies. Because it is very difficult to identify them. They are the traitors and spurious patriots.

The virtue of patriotism is significantly displayed during the time of war. One who is a true patriot is ready to sacrifice his all for his native country. He even puts to risk his own life for the sake of his country. He is always eager to serve his motherland in the way the situation demands. All great nations which made their name in history are proud to illustrate the services of their patriots. Their role had been detrimental in the progress of the nation. The English present the brilliant example of patriotism. It was the patriotism of the countrymen which helped to extend its empire in big portion of the globe. The real strength and power of the country lies in these patriots.

ADVERTISEMENTS:

India is proud to have produced many patriots. These patriots have made great sacrifices for their motherland. Their names are written in golden letters in the history of India. Shivaji, Rana Pratap, Vir Kunwar Singh, Rani Lakshmi Bai, Maharaja Ranjit Singh, Sardar Patel, Subhash Chandra Bose, Lala Lajpat Rai, Bhagat Singh, Maulana Azad, Mahatma Gandhi, to name a few, who sacrificed their lives for their motherland. They lived and died for the country. They are examples for the generation to come.

The patriots play prominent role in the progress of a country. But the real test of patriotism is at the time of crisis. One who is a real patriot stands unfared in the face of all trial and tribulations. The intensity of concern and love for the motherland remain unchanged. Spurious patriot shirks when their services are required. We should be on guard against such traitors. They can never be trusted. They are the people who pass on the confidential information to their enemies to serve their petty ends. Jai Chand, Mir Jafar, etc. come in this category whose infidelity brought great distress to our country. Such elements should be identified and strictly dealt with.

No doubt patriotism is a virtue. But it should never be allowed to go beyond certain limit. Then it becomes chauvinism. It is not a good sign. A person having such attitude begins to look down upon other countries. It narrows down the outlook which ultimately proves disastrous for his personality development. Aggressive patriotism sometimes put the peace and prosperity of the country at danger. It often leads to mass killing. Mass killing of Jews in Germany during the regime of Hitler is an example of frantic patriotism. This should be avoided. It should never constrict our outlook and vision.

(HELP ASAPPPPPPPP)
Can somebody check my grammar for my final draft PLEASEEEEE!!!!!!!
I need somebody that can really help and I need to turn my final draft in NOW!

I can relate to Martin Luther King Jr. Because I was judged of my character and how I stand out to people. In middle school I couldn’t really find myself, throughout my middle school years I’ve always gone through lots of depression, anxiety, and being unfairly judged. I was always being called quiet, mean, or stuck up because of the way I either talk to people I don’t know for the first time or just...there around a bunch of people and it would always make me overthink and I would get even more nervous hearing that people really think that of me. I was judged of the way I looked such as my face expressions sometimes I would have a look on my face as if I was upset or sad. People would come up to me and say “ Hey, are you okay” or “You good”.

Or if I meet someone and talk to them they would say “When I first saw you I wanted to speak to you, but you looked like you were mad so I just didn’t say anything” or “I actually wanted to talk to you but you looked stuck up”. In these type of situations it would always irritate me because I really don’t mean to look “stuck up”. But at the end people would say I’m really nice and fun to hangout with. In the middle of 7th grade I was bullied by a old friend. I was always nice to her even when people made fun of her.

She started spreading roomers about me and my close friends would come up and tell me what she’s been saying and ever since then, I was really embarrassed and I would think that people at school thought I was really like that. That whole situation caused other people to judge me even more because of the rumors my old friend has said about me and it made me feel like I had no one to talk to and I felt lonely. When I went to school the next day, I walked down the hall in the cafetiria and some people started looking at me weird as if I looked mad. I still had three close friends at the time but it was like they weren't there for me and sometimes they would joke around and say "Why do you look so mad, "Are you okay', and "Why do you look so stuck up?'.

It kind of offended me just because of what the other people would say to me and it made me upset. The rest of the school year I always went home crying because of what happened in the past, my anxiety, depression, and how people judged me because of my mean face. I would try to talk to one my school counselors because they told me that they weren't going to send home a email. But it didn't work because every time I express the way I feel and how I haven't been doing good mentally, the counselor would send home a email saying what Iv'e been talking to them about and them my mom would get mad at me because I didn't talk to her about what's been going on about my mental health and how I felt at school. Towards the end of 8th grade It felt like I was losing myself even more because of my anxiety, depression, lack of sleep causing me to zone out a lot, and my mom would judge me because of how I talked to her or looked and say that I always getting a attitude when I talk to her sometimes and it became an issue to where she thought I wasn't, being responsible and trustworthy in some situations.

It got to the point where I wanted to keep stuff to my self because it was like if I keep staying after then she would think I was doing something else. I met a new transfer student and she seemed really nice at first. But once I got to know her it was like i met a whole other person. She very loud, blunt, and had no filter, and she also judged people such as (saying she didn't want that person to be her friend because they're "ugly"). She put me in the wrong crowd and got me to do stuff that i wasn't comfortable doing.

I wanted to tell her that I didn't want to be friends with her but I thought that if I told her that, she would've probably did the same thing my old friend did to me in the 7th grade. So whenever I hung out with her and a couple of my close friends as distractions because that was the only time I could really go out and have fun. Later that year we stopped being friends because I didn't like how she was treating me as a "friend". She kept getting me to do stuff I didn't want to so and if I didn't do something in a specific situation sometimes she would say I was being "weird", "annoying", and "fake". During the summer that year my mental health got even worse and iv'e been going through a lot of mixed emotions.

But some things that helped over the summer was that whenever I distance myself, I feel more comfortable and I'll get to have time to myself instead of doing what my "friends" tell me to do. This helped me realized that whatever I was going through throughout my middle school years, that I needed to focus on myself and if I ever wanted to hangout with my friends, I should should hangout with the people I can trust and be myself with.

Answers

Answer:

The metaphor he uses is "this chopping of civilized life", in which he means that you are forced along whatever current is controlling you and you have no control. A similar metaphor is located in lines 199-209, which are "the surface of the Earth" and "the path which the mind follows". Just like the first one talks about how you are controlled by an established current, these show that the human mind is easily influenced similar to how the Earth's ground is easily shaped and marked by the steps taken by otehrs. These state issues of non-individuality and how we don't develop our own ideas.

If you could change one thing about the world, what would it be and why?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

If I could change one thing about the world, it would be our hearts and minds. But I can’t do that, and neither can anyone else—except God. This is why we need Christ, for only He can change us from within by His Holy Spirit. And this can happen, as we turn to Him and invite Him to come into our lives as our Savior and Lord.

Answer:

If I could change one thing about the world it would be our school system in the US. Teachers do not get paid enough, we are learning things in which take months but could be learning in a shorter span. The funding for our schools is horrible. A lot of schools do not have enough funding to get what their children need, and what the teachers need to teach their students. Then there are many schools that don't focus on every student and don't teach all students fair.
