Dignity

The concept of inherent human dignity means that everyone is born with dignity. It is part of the human being. Everyone has the right to have their dignity respected and protected along with that right comes the responsibility of earning that respect. The concept of dignity is a social concept structured by people so therefore the characteristics and qualities of a dignity may vary from person to person. I also feel that even though you are born with dignity u actually inherit it once you enter a part of life that you are proud of because dignity can be about feeling important and valuable and this feeling is brought by knowing you have achieved and succeeded. But if you do things that are not correct you will loose your dignity people will have no respect for you.

An example of a person that I feel has demonstrated what I feel is a characteristic of human dignity is Nelson Mandela. He has gained respect and honour from me because he has earned it .He is a well-groomed, grounded man.
