Character Building

How do you define character and how does these effects people nowadays. Well, this might be odd to us but some outstanding people build up their character through experience and also hardship in life. As stated by Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe that, ‘Talents are best nurtured in solitude. Character is best formed in the stormy billows of the world.’ Therefore, it is true that the great wave does build up our character. It might be hardship, painful experience and also turbulence. However, I should convey my thought on young generations (In Malaysia) nowadays. In this country which is trying (or struggling) to achieve a developed nation in year 2020, the complacent feelings of young generation is building up. Their hardship in life has been minimized by the government effort since day 1 of independence. Their forefather had struggled to make sure that their children would have a better life. Lack of appreciation on the meaning of life and freedom channeled them, to unforeseen circumstances. Living in their comfort zone they then start to feel blessed. Nurtured by greatness of development is obviously bring them down. This even change how we communicate with lovers, friends and neighbors (McKenna, Green, and Gleason). Or we don’t? Well, Spoiled by what we have might bring a future that is not certain. No certainties on their survival as a professional, leaders and human being. The question is, how are we in a developed nation 2020?
