Good manners are very important in life.
They make our day to day life smooth and easy. A rich man has a crowd
of flatterers around him and a powerful man may be obeyed by people just
out of fear. But a man with pleasing manners is genuinely loved and
appreciated by all. Good matures help a man to win friends easily.
A man with pleasing manners respects the
feelings, and sentiments of people around him. He shows proper regard
to his elders, loves his equals and is kind to those who are younger
than him. Modesty and courtesy are essential traits of his personality.
He is never proud or haughty and he takes great care not to hurt the
feelings of other people. Good manners bring sunshine to life. A man
with pleasing manners is jolly and gay. He has always a smile on his
lips and he is mentally happy. Thus good manners enrich the personality
of a man.
Good manners are vital for success in
life. Nobody likes a rude person, but good manners endear a man to
other. A shopkeeper who behaves rudely with his customers can never
flourish in his trade, but one who behaves politely and pleasantly with
others attracts a large number of customers. Patients always rush to a
doctor who is sympathetic towards them. A leader cannot have a large
follower unless he is polite to others. In fact good manners have a
magnetic influence over the people.
The primitive people were savage and
brutal. They rarely showed any concern for others. They found it
difficult to keep their emotions under control. But civilization taught
people to be considerate to others. Thus good manners are true signs of
civilization.
Good manners cost nothing, but they
bring about handsome rewards. When someone says "please" or "thank you"
he actually finds himself in the midst of cheerful crowd. When someone
is polite and soft spoken, he gets over many difficult situations in
life.
Good manner are not, however, born with
us. They have to be cultivated with great care. Childhood is the best
period to cultivate good manners and so both parents and teachers have a
great role to play.
