Integrity Over Losing Dignity (Sarai)


Integrity Over Losing Dignity
Many of us value integrity in ourselves. We also look for it consistently in our leaders or anyone around us. Integrity is important because it keeps you from never having to spend time or energy questing our selves. When we listen to our heart and do the right thing, life becomes simple. Having Integrity means gaining trust of our leaders and those around you. In other words you are dependable. Having trust takes you places. Also when you hold yourself accountable for your action you become a role model for others to follow. This is what John Proctor did, he choose Integrity over losing his dignity. He did not want his name to be hanged up for public eyes to see, knowing he was innocent.

Losing your dignity will bring some hard consequences. Your name can be stepped on, cursed and hated. When your name is mentioned it can be like say the word devil to some people or like an annoying noise they can’t stand hearing. It can cause you to go crazy and every want suicide because of so many insults. John did not want this and besides he wanted his son to know him as a good man. John knew that if he told the truth he would have to hang. He preferred this over letting people stare at him and judge him strongly. In his heart he must of felt that to die this way was the best choice out of the two choices he had.
