I am writing to you on the eve of my 45th birthday. I have been struggling with my values and spirituality lately. Maybe it has something to do with this milestone birthday. Ironically, I have a homework assignment to write my ethical will. A document to pass along key morals, values and life lessons. Grandma always told me that God hears the prayers that live in your heart, both the joys and struggles. And He answers them, you just have to listen. She also told me that struggles are…

In the case of societies that have certain values, there are members of society that follow the societal rules and those that are overcome by emotion who cannot see the rules’ necessity to society. The Bhagavad-Gita has In this paper, I will argue how in order to overcome desire in the Tao Te Ching and The Bhagavad-Gita, one must understand the negative effects that desire and greed have on society and the Way. In the society of The Bhagavad Gita, everything is done with a purpose and a reason…

In the essay “Why Abortion is Immoral,” philosopher Don Marquis uses utilitarian principles to argue that “abortion is, except in rare cases, seriously immoral…[and] in the same category as killing an innocent human being” (223). However, he deliberately avoids relating his thesis to abortion in the specific contexts of rape, maternal death, and severe postpartum health complications. Thus, in my analysis of his claim, I plan on adopting Marquis’ utilitarian perspective to evaluate the…

In today’s society and through much of society in the past few centuries, showing respect towards others is essential to human interactions. Many consider chivalry to be one of the best ways to show respect. However, since chivalry has become expected of people, the actions that come with being chivalrous, often lack sincerity as they are forced. William Faulkner’s “A Rose for Emily” criticizes the other side of chivalry by showing that judgement and isolation often come with empty gestures,…

aforementioned definition, I believe that Source A is an example of a personal mission statement. Mahatma Gandhi lived his life as a non-violent man who did not fold into injustices. He accepted the consequences of his decisions which were firmly based on his values – for example, been jailed several times for consciously breaking the law in order to challenge the political order. His personal mission statement reflects his life and how he lived, where justice was a key driver in all his…

There are many different aspects that contribute to a society and its flourishing. Respect is a main component that is present in societies and is used in our everyday lives. First we have to ask ourselves what respect really means: the admiration for someone or something and its greatness or worth. Having respect is something our parents and teachers teach us from a very young age because it is an important life skill we end up using for the rest of our lives. We are taught that to earn respect…

civil strife. In addition, the nation’s economic wellbeing deteriorates, to different degrees, during the transition (Duch, 1995). There is a temporary disequilibrium during transition from a communist authoritarian system to a democracy, when new values and norms come into contact with and/or disrupt older social patterns, weakening formal as well as informal social control. Transitional societies, therefore, are associated with growing cultural heterogeneity, or the state of anomie (Ruohui,…

Who would we be without culture? Culture shapes who we become as people. The definition of culture is the arts and other manifestations of human intellectual achievement regarded collectively. My definition of culture is something that impacts you everyday and shapes you into who you are. The three strongest cultural influences on my life are family, basketball, and school. My first cultural influence is basketball. I began playing basketball at five years old. Playing basketball in the…

care of and spend time with them. By not being totally enveloped in his work, Josh is still able to financially support his family and support them emotionally by being present in their lives. The “Ethics of Care as Moral Theory” also states that it “values emotion rather than rejects it” (10). By listening to his inner emotions of feeling overworked and unhappy, as well as recognizing that his constant stream of emails and obligations were affecting his family life, Josh is valuing his emotions…
