geographic locations. Zooming in a little tighter in these areas, Germany and the United States each have their own unique set of values when it comes to, their social etiquette, self-policing, work/family balance, and even the way they engage in courtship to find a mate. The way the Germans and Americans have shaped the norms within their culture are a direct result of their values. These norms are just activities reflecting their opinion of how the “world should be, rather than the…

How do you birthduring your life even after you are brought into this world? The human condition, defined as the the characteristics which compose the essentials of the human existence. All humans experience (birth, growth, emotionality, aspiration, conflict, mortality) characteristics that people in this world feel that you need to be a moral human being. Most people aren’t aware that they’re living the human condition, but that doesn’t mean that they won’t use these characteristics during…

Ethics and morality is something that has been discussed among humans for as long as we have been on this planet. People everywhere have a set of moral codes or guidelines they follow on a daily basis. Often though, these same people may not even be aware of this phenomenon. I myself was not fully familiar with all the thought and work that surrounds ethics until this quarter. I knew that as humans we had to have some kind of moral guide to turn to when it came to making decisions, but that was…

Every culture has their own ideas of art, literature, customs and other original views according to their culture. These ideas about one’s culture are called universals. People have their own universals but the great part of universals is not having them but also sharing them with other cultures. By sharing universals of one's culture with others it can change people from another culture. When one applies Kwame Anthony Appiah’s idea of Universals in Cosmopolitanism to the character, Nwoye in…

Personal Values and Attitudes Every person is unique and has a different set of personal values, attitudes and beliefs that shaped their way of living. As a Disability Support Professional (DSP), I am going to support individuals with mental, physical and intellectual disabilities, who may have a different set of values and beliefs as compared to my values and beliefs. As a DSP, I should keep in mind that the person I am going to support has his/her own values and beliefs and I should respect…

Ethics is defined as “a body of moral principles or values” (Saskatchewan Polytechnic, 2016). It provides direction in terms of distinguishing right behaviours from the wrong ones. Code of ethics is important in businesses or organizations because it acts as a tool to achieve the desirable results and to succeed while holding its members accountable.

to the ruin of himself alongside others. While it is commonly argued that Lady Macbeth or the three witches are at fault in the play, it all falls back to Macbeth: he who allowed himself to be manipulated instead of remaining adherent to his true values.

synopsis of the aims, values and intentions of the person. It reflects their strengths, what they strive to achieve and their ethos. I agree that both A and B are personal mission statements. In source A, Mahatma Gandhi states the things that he would like to achieve each day, “I shall not fear anyone on Earth… I shall not bear ill will toward anyone.
