Integrity is the quality of being honest and having strong moral principles; moral uprightness .

Wow, uprightness,this sounds important.


Lets see what does this word really mean? It is synonym with integrity,but what does it refer to? If you ask me,I
think uprightness is shown by doings and gestures.
Lets take an example.You find an wallet on the street. You take it and you realise it is full of money. What will you
do? What should youdo? You will keep it, or you will go to police station and make sure it goes back to the
rightfull owner. Do youThink that somebody will raise it? If you think you are an honest person, you should go to
the police station. But,when you have a lot of money in your hand, I think you will think twice before you will go to
the police station .Why I am saying this? Oh,come on,we are people. We are not perfect. If we found one pound
on the street, we would not go to the police, would you? But,see,this is the problem. We should go to the police for
that one pound, because,it is not ours. It is not a big difference between the situation when we found one pound
and the other one, when we found 100. By the way, applicable it is,but theoretical it isnt. Why? Because they are
not our property. You see? This is integrity applied in real life, not just theoretical.
Let us take example two: you all had a composition ot a summary or commentary to do for school. What was your
firs thought???? Exactly to look on the internet now, starting from this point lets analyse what is correct from
integrity point of view. Well, I am disappointed that I have to let you know about this but taking your homework
from the internet is not honest, nor moral. People uploaded the information there only to be more easily accessible
and for information only. You don.t need rules to tell you not to take from there we all know it is not correct but
still we do it.
So, to conclude, I MAY SAY THAT INTEGRITY NEED NO SET OF RULES, BUT THE COURAGE INSIDE
EVERYONE TO DO THE ROGHT THING
