After all I want to write that everything here not so much a peculiar and unique for the Russian people. I am sure that the same characteristics can find in other nations. But I could find just this things looking from the side of Russian citizens. I do not think that exactly these traits distinguish us from other nations. This is just a short list of what I could remember!
1# Russian people choosing to listen their heart rather than logic or rationality. Trying not to betray their heart and soul.
2# Russians have large soul, thirsting for open spaces and open skies.
3# Truthful people. Can express all that in their mind to a friend, acquaintance or just random visitor.
4# Russians are really hospitable people. Even if it's an unexpected guest. At each feast a lot of food and alcohol! If russians make a birthday party he must pay for everything and NEVER ask their guests pay for themselves.
5# Russians can survive almost everywhere! In the heat and cold. Endurance of the body is amazing. In fact russian men doesn't forget the main purpose for which tolerates all suffering!
6# Employability of russians is boundless. We need just a good boss =)
7# Not greedy! We have a lots of everything. And sometimes russians can give remnant without any regretting.
8# Russian people are not offend by self-irony. Never. We have a lot of good books which wrote russian writers about russian stupid things. Very good funny books =)
9# Russian are very talented. Who know a little bit about of the world history of science, poetry and music can find a lot of outstanding Russian men.
10# Supple mind. We can use the same objects for different functions!
11# We always said: "If pitiful, means love." Sometimes no logic russian woman can be with some man only because She have pity on him...
12# Russian people always longing for their homeland!! No matter how good they live in other country.
Of course here is only a few good things about my people. And of course we have a lot of bad things in our characters. For example russian people not have any rules and disciplines. That's why our mafia is most cruel and many people are stiles nationality recurses. But as Russian people have very strong community ties during an emergency. In they souls wake up the spirit of noble heroism! It's strange, but true!
Many bad and strange even for us things, without any logic.. But that's why I try to remember tha good things in my people.
maybe you can do the same about your people? Please do it and write here. It should be very interesting for me, my friends!=)
