The people who have a sense of shame is the people who are honest with themselves, honest to their people and honest to their nation, too. Because lying is an embarrassing trait that is not possible owned by people who have a sense of shame. People who have a sense of shame is not possible treacherous because the treacherous is a trait that must be avoided by people who have a sense of shame. Prophet Muhammad puts shame as one branch of faith : "The Faith is no more than sixty branches, and shame is one one branch. "(Narrated by Bukhari).

The act of being shame of something is not the reason to pull yourself down. The best thing to do, find ways to make it right. If we become a minnow and continued to feel so small, nothing will happen.

Shame is a humane trait. We are not complete and wrong doing may happen to me too. If we realise that we did wrong because we were really wrong then a feeling of shame blosoms in our face. Sometimes we feel shame whenever we face any inhumane manner or words. So its scientific.

People who know shame are good people. RESPECT you - People who know shame are good people. RESPECT yourself!
Yes, I agree that people who know shame are good people. But nowadays many people are just pursuing materialistic gains that they will resort to any means. That is the reason why we have so many cases of cheating, robbery and corruption. I just hope that the young children now won't grow up thinking that it is all right to want to be rich with whatever means. We must emphasize the importance of self-respect.
