Loyalty
Loyalty is a virtue
that the majority of people don’t have, but I believe everyone should. Loyalty
has many different forms whether it is that you are loyal to a person, the
country and/or state you were born, or a cause. Loyalty is a person’s
faithfulness or a devotion to a person, country, group, or cause.
Loyalty is considered a
virtue because It strictly co-insides with someone’s character. If you are
loyal you will stay that way and if not then you won’t. If people aren’t loyal
in at least one thing in their life they will not make any kind of bond with
anyone and thus making them lonely for their life’s deration. The people that
are going to be the ones you want in your life are the worthy ones. You aren’t worthy
if you aren’t loyal. For example if your friend tells you a deep secret
trusting you not to tell and you go out and expose that secret you just
exhibited disloyalty. This makes you unworthy of your friend’s friendship.
- All worthy people are loyal
- All kind people are worthy
- Therefore all kind people are loyal
Loyalty can also be
considered a virtue because it is completely up to you if you are loyal or not.
We were all born with the ability to make right or wrong decisions. We have the
power to choose for ourselves. The same principle applies here. If an
individual decides to be disloyal then it all up to that individual. Loyalty isn’t
something that is taken or given. It is in every individuals own two hands.
Whether you chose to use it or not is completely up to you, that is what makes
it so special.
Loyalty is a virtue
that is a person’s faithfulness or a devotion to a person, country, group, or
cause. In order to be loyal you need to be worthy. Having loyalty to someone or
something is all up to you and that is why it is so important.

I do agree that loyalty is a character trait that everyone should strive to develop, and I believe your definition of loyalty is accurate. However, what I do not agree with is that a person who is not loyal is incapable of becoming a loyal individual. In your post, you state, "If you are loyal, you will stay that way, and if you're not, then you won't" Loyalty is a characteristic, no doubt, but individual characteristics can change. If a person finds the fact that they are not loyal to be a character flaw, and they are determined to change that aspect of themselves, then I think change is possible. Not everyone will have the determination to change, but those who do seek to better themselves, I believe can and will change their character.
