Values
Saturday, April 15, 2006
I read an article from a magazine and i qoute, "Which is more fearful? A world without values or a world with too many values?
We should be more careful of using values as a basis for our actions. They cant be justified all the time. Defending your cause using values makes it hard for others to refute you. At most, they can blame you for the consequences of your actions, but it will be tricky business to fault you for your motive. Using values to argue immediately casts opponents into a moral black hole for the undiscerning third-parties. Powerful indeed. One's value is truly important in today's context of mob voices, many opinions and ideals. The value of compromise, give and take. Contrieved but mutual harmony can nature into an enduring one. Otherwise we should be careful of how we use values as a basis for our actions.
At the same time, bear in mind that others have their own set of values too."
Thought of sharing it with you. So what are your values? Do you even have one in the first place?
