George Washington-a great leader in history

Today i am going to talk about one of the great leaders in history, George Washington, as you all know, the first president of the United States and famous for being the leader of the Continental army in the American revolutionary war.

I felt that George Washington was a man who deserved to be respected and loved after. He understood that freedom is far and the path leading to freedom is unstable and steep, with obstacles everywhere, but the labours of his efforts are sweet and good. He has the courage of a lion, a person who stood up against tyranny for U.S. colonies' freedom.
George Washington also shows tremendous concern for his people and look after their well being and helped them in their needy times. Most importantly, he believed in a bright future and no matter how dark and hopeless the situation gets, he always have hope that miracles can happen. He is also a fair person who does not treat people in a biased manner. He is also a person who accepts reality and is willing to let go of power.

He have superior courage, energy, high principles and moral values, and steadfastness; and possesses impartial justice and utter trustworthiness. He was calm in the face of imminent danger and terror, dauntless in adversity. He was a man who would sacrifice repose for fame and fame to duty; his thoroughness in deliberation and mastery over his strong passion.

George Washington was distinguished for his superior intellect and virtues. He lived not to please himself, not to let others suffer, but to restore peace, order and harmony to a chaotic nation and world, to work hard and never rest to contribute to the world, to donate as many as he could, for the sake of the nation and the sake of the world. He was a great leader with charisma and his selfless contributions and his love for his nation was something not many could do.

However, George Washington also have weakness. He was quite slow in the beginning and is vulnerable to others' decisions and ideas but as the days went by, he became a great leader.
