Hey mate here's your essay
By patriotism we mean genuine love for one’s own country. Patriotism must not be misinterpreted as one’s hatred for other countries. If one loves his own country and hates other countries, then it is nationalism rather than patriotism.
Mother and the motherland are superior to the heaven. We do never lose our honour for our mother even if she does not love us. Similarly we respect our country in all situations. We are indebted to our motherland where we are born and brought up. It is our moral duty to keep her head high.
Patriotism is a virtue which can be expressed in different ways. A true patriot tries to do something for the development of his country.
When Abraham Lincoln was a child he noticed the misery of the slaves in America. He liked America but did not like the slavery system. So when he became the President of America he abolished the ugly system and established democracy.
Thus, he did some noble thing to keep up the prestige of his country. So he is a true patriot. India is also proud of being the motherland of great patriots like Rana Pratap, Shivaji, M.K.Gandhi, Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru, Subhas Chandra Bose. History is full of praise for these figures. They dedicated themselves to the cause of their dear motherland. M.K.Gandhi gave up his personal interest and struggled for the interest of our country. Nelson Mandela of South Africa is also a true patriot.
A patriot is different from a politician. A politician shows no genuine love for any idea or for his country. Of course, patriots often indulge in politics. But they do not play dirty politics.
Today, many touts and politicians claim that they are patriots. But in their activities they are antinational. They give secret shelter to terrorists. Their main aim is to reap some selfish gain for themselves. A true patriot never advertises. Patriotism is much different from narrowness.
Patriotism is the love and respect for one’s country. It is not about blindly following the beliefs and cultural values of the country. It is to take pride in one’s origin and work for the prosperity of the country. Patriotism is very important. The feeling must especially be born in the youth of the country so they act as responsible citizens. Youth is the future of the nation and for the bright future of the country it is important for them to protect and preserve the nation and act in its best interest to make it outshine.
We should stop complaining about the flaws of our government and instead work for the growth and development of the country. It is better to be the change first to bring the change. It is important to love the nation we live in and focus more on what it has given to us and what we can give back to it. We need to be united and stand together for the progress of the country for its improvement.
