Character Orientation
Character Orientation & Renewal of Ethical Values

In order to make better transformations in life, I believe that change should start from within. I will exercise good values at all times, strive hard to be a better version of myself, will give my best in school, and I will never stop learning and working towards my goals. The little things we do everyday affects our future in big ways so it might as well be good. It’s also important that we keep our personal relationship with God strong and intact. And let his blessings and miracles work in our lives.

There are things we couldn’t avoid in our family like quarrels and disagreements. I am trying to be more patient and I try not to talk when I’m in a bad mood to keep myself from saying cruel things that I don’t even mean. I also try to reach out to them after every fight and ignore my pride, and in doing so, I can be at peace with myself too. I admit it’s not easy to forgive and forget but my love for my family is greater than any of that. And I believe that everyone should do the same to maintain a healthy relationship with their families.

It’s easier to do great things with my friends in school. Everyday makes a huge difference. They’re all very nurturing and supportive and they can expect me to do the same too. I will also continue to share my talents and teach them the things I know. School activities can be very stressful but this is what makes us responsible, clever, disciplined etc. and some of the essential values we need to succeed in life.

I’m not a very social person and I admit that I don’t usually go out. Trying to come up with something that will make differences for our community is challenging. But maybe someday I’ll be able to support a cause, donate to charities, and use art to inspire and encourage people. For now, I will just prepare myself so that if I’ll be given the opportunity to contribute to something that will make great changes for our community, I will surely give it my best.

    Personal Ethics and ValuesPersonal ethics and values form a moral code of conduct embedded into the behavior of every individual. People are not born ethical, but have ethics thrust upon them starting at birth. Concepts of honesty, integrity, independence, trust, spirituality, caring, and courage are values imprinted into every individual from sources such as family, community, culture, education, and religion (Seneca College, 2001). Note that personal ethics and values are not always morally sound and universal, i.e., racism, sexism, and anti-Semitism.…

    Comedian Bill Cosby once said “family is conflict and it's something that we all relate to.” His words speak of nothing but the truth because we have all experienced familial conflict before; it may have been a disagreement over moving schools with your parents or even a fight with a sibling, anyways the point is we all come across conflict throughout our life and it doesn’t just involve family. However the conflict doesn’t just come and go, it changes us whether during experiencing it or after the encounter. When caught up in a rough situation conflict can make people turn selfish for their own self-preservation, which causes them to neglect others including close ones. It also can be a significant change, transforming a person into a leader that would stand for what they believe is right or altering an individual’s aspect of life. Therefore, conflict…

    Individuals that possess Character ethical perspectives tend to base their ethics on "what it is good to be rather than good to do." When judging another person's actions, he or she will look for ethical behavior based on their character. In this perspective, the character of a person is more important than their actions. "This category is most likely aligned in philosophy with the virtue theory." Qualities values in this category are wisdom, honesty and integrity. Demonstrating these qualities for those in the Character category are more important than following the rules. This perspective also believes that individuals are incapable of ethical behavior and choosing between right or wrong, without possessing good character.…

    My family encompasses such a multitude of strengths, that it’s difficult to pinpoint which ones bring about the most positivity. Personally, I would argue that loyalty is the quintessential strength within my family. Each of us knows our family members will always look out for us and provide whatever they can to enhance our own sense of happiness. My family also spends gargantuan levels of time together. Without spending this quality time together, we’d have no way of furthering, strengthening, and maintaining our relationships with one another. If you’re not willing to take an interest in your family members lives and vice-versa, there’s no chance of establishing a strong relationship with one another. More specifically, within my family, I maintain relationships using different strengths with different members. For example, my mom has always shown the utmost respect towards honesty. No matter what I’ve done, as long as I’m honest with her, our relationship stays strong. My sister on…

    Every family has its fair share of problems whether it be cultural or generational. Many families could just solve their problems and be fine with it, but many families cannot cope with work pressures, financial inconsistencies, divorce, maybe even the children of the household. But there is one thing that a family compromises of, and that is hope. In today’s modern era, family has a completely different meaning to it than past generations. Family can consist of anyone, blood related or not. Family now, is not the typical husband, wife and children, it much more different than that. Even if family does not carry the same meaning as it did in the past, that does not mean values are not carried throughout…

    In an interview with William Boyle, Beth Ann Fennelly, co-author of The Tilted World, stated, “As much of a natural disaster as a flood is, falling in love is also a natural disaster. Or it can be” (fictionwritersreview.com). The Tilted World, a novel about the great flood of Mississippi, incorporates themes of love and adventure to capture a historical event that impacted the lives of individuals across the state. During the 20th century, it was clear that men and women played very different roles in society. However, authors Tom Franklin and Fennelly use two unique characters to challenge these stereotypes. Ted Ingersoll and Dixie Clay Holliver defy typical gender expectations throughout the text…
