Erosion in human values in modern times
Albert Einstein, one of the greatest scientists of all times very wisely said: ‘Try not to become a man of success but a man of values.’ Ethics and values are the hallmark of character. Character cannot be conceived of without them. The way there can be no light without the sun, similarly, there can be no character without ethics and values. All great men and women of all times and in all climes have been role models of character for all of us. Each one of them stood for certain values. These icons of success embodied in themselves values that form a real character. They were men and women who displayed unparalleled perseverance, dedication, single-minded focus, and commitment. They were hard workers, who courted success with their heart, body, mind, and soul. Success made them go through many painful ordeals before she consented to them.
However, in the modern times, high morals, values, and ethics seem to have been eroded pathetically. The canker that has undermined the strength of human values is materialism. The morals have gone so down that prime purpose of man's existence is pecuniary pursuits. Man has stooped so low that he sacrifices even the most sacred relations for the sake of material gains. Gone are the days of brotherly, sisterly, fatherly, or motherly love. Man can break all ties of love and respect for the sake of money and property! All ethics, etiquette, decency, and decorum have gone to dogs. Life has become merely trade, commerce and profit earning. So wherever man finds some financial gain or advantage, he honors those relations. The rest is least said the better!
