Importance of character

Character makes a man. We are not judged by
our wealth, health, status in the society or
positions which are all short lived. A man may
earn reputation through his other acts but when
the character falls, everything goes in vain.
Abraham Lincoln once said, Character is like a
tree and reputation like a shadow. The shadow is
what we think of it; the tree is the real thing.
Only our character decides our true self and if it
is good, will remain forever for many more years
to come.
In fact, it is very easy to judge the character of a
person. Mark Twain says, A mans character
may be learned from the adjectives which he
habitually uses in conversation . All people have
Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde in them and it is only
when Hyde takes a hide and Jekyll comes out
predominantly, the character is worth mentioning.
