There again this article talks about what are values and how important they are to a specific person. As of finding a great job, a lovely home, nice clothes, and whatever is the most important to them. Values impose more than just ideals or goals and they use abstract nouns such as truth, justice, love, peace, success, tolerance, end equality. These are the traits that I have not thought to be abstract nouns or so. I just learned something new that I thought I knew it was for values. We use different terms to identify thoughts to form human behaviors it is said from this reading that we use them to define our self and the group that we wish to be with. It’s interesting when Moril mentions about our values commit us to take action, to doing something, while others tells us not to do so. If our values lead us to something about them, then our feelings of sympathy may be genuine value for us to extent that they motivates us to take an action. When we hold a value it makes us take action to something that will impact the world upon us.
Forms of behaviors that we have gained is through what has been taught to us by parents. Many of the things that we learn from them are values but we have to decide for ourselves if it’s what we value it’s kind of like a give or a take. For example, if my parents believe so much in shamanism for my culture, it’s their value but then at the same time I grew up with it. I mentally made it as one of my values for my culture. But as time goes on if I do not have that belief in Shamanism I have to learn to accept it and not think of it as one of my values.
Now Moril, gives a reality check, about how to come across and discover what your values are. The author give a lot of detailed questions that make me question myself. The questions that he gives on upon if are there going to be sacrifices to achieve the goals that are connected with the value and whatever it is achieving towards will it bring fulfillment on a short- or long-term basis? In this passage it is said that we can put a whole series of questions to ourselves and gain full understanding of the values to which we are committed to. True values must be freely chosen by the person and cannot be accepted simply on the authority of another person. For instance whatever your peer likes or values you may think of valuing it too but question yourself, do yourself value it too or is it because it’s your peer and you always agree with their values and not have your own value at all?
After you have learned about what your true values are and they are not to be able to be given as any simple answers. As we continue on with life, life itself is continually giving us tests as to which values will create coherent and enduring results that will produce the greatest integrity and the greatest fulfillment of our potential.
