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,…

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…

Personal Core Values and Empathetic Leadership Personal core values are essential in empathetic management when balanced with other traditional leadership methods. Personal core values are those things that guide your life, things you feel strongly about, and are always with you at home or work. Some people call it their inner voice or consciousness (Stosny, 2010). When your core values are align, you feel great about the decision you have made and when these values do not align, you feel the…

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…

For many people culture has influenced them in one way or another, as a result culture informs and affects how people view others and the world around them. Despite arguments others may have against it, it all depends on their upbringing. In the stories "An Indian Father's Plea", "Everyday Use" and "Two Kinds", there are copious examples that can be drawn supporting this claim. Not only are these from authors real experiences, they also showcase the extent to which one's culture affects their…

you will continue to use good judgement even if your ego has to be temporarily sacrificed. Being able to negotiate shows that you are willing to compromise and make a smart decision for the good of the company. It even shows that you value friendships more than you value being…

that place. If you were to put a grown adult in there that has done many wrongs throughout his life, he will suffer as well but I would understand why he was put in the room. Our life shouldn’t revolve around happiness. There a are other important values in life. Our world today has similar patterns as those from Omelas. Although the government might hide information from us, jails and prisons are similar to the room the child is kept in because our purpose for putting them in there is related…

“BEing” the beloved, we will go through our entire life searching for who we are in things that hold no value. Henri Nouwen says that this leads to depression and “our life ends up nothing” (Nouwen, Being the Beloved sermon 1 of 8). Admittedly, I still struggle with this even though I believe that “I am the beloved of God” (Ephesians 5:1, NIV Thinline Bible). I recognize that I place too much value on what people think and say about me, and not enough on what God says about…
