Professionalism

During a causal chit chat with a friend, whom I had known for many years, I was harshly surprised to find out how our lives change, once we become professionals in our respective trades. Truth and everything else that we used to stand for come second to succeeding in our professions, we got to get that top position at the cost of our integrity, honesty and truth. Is this how we want people to remember us? Is this what will make the ones we love proud of us? What is happening to us as a race? Are we too greedy? Is success all that matters? Are we not human anymore? A life lived in honesty, truth and integrity is a life of peace, joy and happiness. It is a simple life with a profound influence on our peers and followers, it is a life of satisfaction. If there is one thing I have learnt in life that is Honesty is the best policy. It is far easier to lie than to tell the truth, but is far more worthy to tell the truth than live a lie. If all of us lived our lives like this then heaven is truly a place on earth, let us live in such a manner, such that the lives around us, is sweetened. Let us work hard, let us work with honesty, truthfulness, dignity and integrity. Let us party harder so that are lives are not boring and without fun, let us live our lives in such a way as it is meaningful to one another.
