There are five professions which I admire most. First and foremost is the profession of teaching. A teacher is a nation builder. He is a role model for his students. In the modern materialistic age the teachers have lost the high status they used to enjoy in society. Still, one can say, teaching is the noblest of all professions.
The second profession I admire most is the profession of a doctor. There is no doubt many doctors have these days grown very greedy. They try to fleece the poor helpless patients. But I’m here talking about an ideal doctor only. Such a doctor has the milk of human kindness in him. He considers service to mankind his mission. He charges moderate fees and works wholeheartedly to mitigate the sufferings of the ailing humanity.
The third profession which I admire most is the profession of a soldier. A soldier is the savior of the country and its people. He is ready to sacrifice his life for the sake of his country. He must be given due respect, regard and status in society. The fourth profession I admire most is the profession of a farmer. A farmer supplies food to all the people. Nobody can live without food. So, all of us depend for food on the farmer.
ADVERTISEMENTS:
The farmer must be given better treatment and facilities. The fifth profession I admire most is that of a politician. This may seem strange as the politicians are condemned everywhere. The reason for their condemnation generally is because they are mostly corrupt.
But, I’m talking here about an ideal politician only. Such a politician is a model of service to society, country and mankind. Before independence, we had such great politicians as Mahatma Gandhi, Jawaharlal Nehru, Balgangadhar Tilak, Gopal Krishna Gokhale and others. I wish we had such great selfless leaders and politicians now also.
