ON Ideals

              On  Ideals

    Everyone cherishes his ideals, fanciful or     substantial. We dreamed of becoming scientists when we were school boys and girls;now we hope for a better society and are determined to work for it.And we strive,one way or another,to realize our ideals.

    One should be sensible whether one's ideals is wall-founded or not.If it is,one has to plan and work hard for its realization.Effort,skill and persistence are all necessary.And very often,one has to get help from others,including advice and support in different forms.

    In most cases,the realization of personal ideals is in the interest of society.On the other hand,social ideals such as the preservation of natural environment for the improvement of human living conditions and the production of sufficient material wealth for the world's population concern the whole of society,and their realization calls for contribution by all.We should always try our best to help such ideals come true.
