My duty is to take care of the ones I love, to make sure that they're happy before I even begin to think about myself. When you think of duty you think of something that you're committed to, something you could be (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Obligated) possibly be obligated to doing.
To me there are two kinds of duty; one meaning you're committed to doing something, and the second meaning you're obligated to doing something.
Take a police officer for example, he/ she's duty is to protect and serve the U.S. Should he or she fail to do that chaos is created and stupidity runs rapid and who would we have to blame? The police force because they failed to do their job.
Now take a random student at school for example, he/she might be committed to having the best school year possible or even having better grades than they did last year. That's the duty that they are committed to if they were to fail at it then nothing bad happens maybe a little sadness will occur, but nothing big. Why? Because it was something they were committed to not obligated.
Now me I'm both obligated and committed to taking care of my son Johnah. He is my world the reason I wake every morning. He is someone I will give my life for someone I will put all my time effort and life force into. If I were to fail in raising him the correct way then I have failed his mother and myself. When I saw his face I promised myself that I would make sure he got everything I didn't yeah its just like every other dad, but I am gonna see to it he does.
I made it my duty to take care of the ones close to me the ones I love as I previously stated. Not a lot of people can put others in front of themselves the way I do.
