Being a Venezuelan: in appearance or in truth 

Greetings to the entire Read.Cash community, today I will share a very controversial topic.

Have you heard the phrase Confidence is Asco?, I do and today I will apply it to the following:

Could it be that the Venezuelan, because of the trust he has in his country, gives him the right to treat it as worthless garbage? When I see the attitude of a large number of Venezuelan brothers towards our country, I really feel rejection and sadness, because unfortunately what it shows is a lot of lack of love and detachment.

There are those of us who have a sense of belonging, of having a VENEZUELAN identity ... but not a cheap identity (and forgive the frankness and the term I use) that false identity that when they listen to Venezuelan music it seems that they are more Venezuelan than Reinaldo Armas, but when they are walking down an avenue, they throw rubbish on the floor. Being Venezuelan is not just that you like our music, and have it in the CDs of your collection, being Venezuelan is defending our country by word and deed.

We see how there are Venezuelans who by seeking their own benefit harms their neighbor (the famous Creole liveliness), we can make a long list of these behaviors, an example of this is "Los Bachaqueros" are those people who resell products at exaggeratedly high prices, generally basic necessities or products that people need (medicines, food), another behavior is when standing in a line or "queue" to wait to be attended at a bank, another pretends to be attended without waiting for their turn, or when we see people who for waiting their turn in a queue of vehicles, they pass by the shoulder or canal for accident victims, when I see a playground destroyed by the community itself, when we go to the beach, field or mountain and once they enjoy it, they go and They leave it with garbage, well, if we start to count the list sadly it does not end. And the truth is unfortunate to recognize this, but it is reality.

But just as there are people who do wrong, there are also those who do good, for example, we faithfully respect the traffic rules, especially the pedestrian crossing or the line to cross the street, the traffic lights, the traffic signals, no we make noises or shout in the place where we live, never throw papers or garbage on the floor, even if they are not looking at us, we do not throw cigarette butts on the sidewalks or driveways, we take care that our streets are clean, we collect and dispose of our waste pets in the places arranged for this purpose, we do not paint the walls of the streets with offensive phrases, among others.

We must sow in our children love for their country, from a very young age it is when people learn to care for and preserve, restore the love of adults who have it fractured and strengthen the love and commitment of all those people who love it, if it is It is necessary for us to feel pain when we see that someone else harms her, because that she feels, it is true that when something hurts we take care of it with great zeal, thus we must honor and love Venezuela, the land that saw us born, grow up, live our youth, where all the families made and live here.

We must be aware and realize when we are doing something wrong, education and respect must begin at home, we must be strict in this, working the mind, conscience and love of our children, everything starts from home, to also be reinforced with the school and / or high school, in this way, to be able to see the fruits when they are adults, to see that person who “strangely” eats a sweet, and keeps the packaging in a bag and then throws it at home, that is respect to the city and the country, can you imagine that we all have positive attitudes, as good citizens? It would be wonderful, it is in our hands to achieve this so longed for and beautiful goal, That All Venezuelans Will Respect, Honor and Love our Country.

It is not fair that those of us who remain here, those of us who, for whatever reason, still live in Venezuela, sit with crossed arms waiting for the one next to do what is good, we cannot wait for the other to do for us to do, We must be proactive, do good without waiting for someone else to do it, this is the virus that should be spread throughout the country, infect ourselves with love and respect.

 Being Good Venezuelan is not enough to be born in VENEZUELA, Being Good Venezuelan also means showing her that you love her.

Let's not be indolent and indifferent to the galloping destruction of our country, it is true that we reached the bottom of the hole ... but just as we got to the bottom we must go up, make all things new with love and passion, just as you take care of your house and not you allow no one to come and dirty it and destroy it, take care of and love your country.

Many people have left, many are Venezuelans who have emigrated looking for new and better horizons, but those of us who have stayed here are that remnant that VENEZUELA has to raise and rebuild, that it is necessary to go through this hard and painful process, Yes it is true, but I believe that it is the only way to value the blessing of the country that God has given us.

We must determine to change our way of thinking for the benefit of Venezuela, when that happens, it will also change our way of speaking, change our attitude and actions in favor of our motherland Venezuela. Each of us must take the first step of being a good citizen, because:

THE WORDS CONVINCE BUT THE EXAMPLE DRAWS.
