Values?

:cry:  My blog has been viewed 323 times, but nobody has commented yet. Please comment?


My mother stressed the importance of seeing the other person's point of view.  I still find that to be challenging, because I felt a lack of support, sympathy, & loyalty for me from her at times, so as a result perhaps I haven't stressed seeing the other person's point of view enough for my children, although I have tried to teach them to be kind & to be respectful, which I feel are all important.  After all, it feels so good to be treated kindly & to be respected; & it hurts to be treated unkindly, & to be disrespected.



So much of life is getting along with other people, life seems like one big game of Survivor, all about building trust & alliances, but at the same time looking out for number 1?! 

 

I think we are placed, or choose to be, with our family in this life for a reason, & that family should look out for each other, & be loyal to one other.  I don't understand people who put friends ahead of family - well, unless their family members are all no-hopers I suppose, but even then our family are ours to help.

 

I think life's challenge is to overcome negativity, & to keep ones eyes firmly fixed on how one intends it to become.

 

I believe in following one's conscience, which is strengthened the more one listens to it; but weakened the more one ignores it. 

 

I value prayer & meditation, examining oneself often, being honest with oneself & realising our personal failings & resolving to do better.

 

One guide is to ask oneself:  "If everyone did this, how would the world be?"

Hi Bronwyn, Im Elizabeth. I hope you will visit my blog as boring as it is. I hope we can chit chat all the time, nice to meet you and i love your paintings and your blog, very nice. "I believe in following one's conscience, which is strengthened the more one listens to it" that's what you wrote, I agree, I have a huge conscience and I can feel when I have done something wrong or something is not right.
"I value prayer & meditation, examining oneself often, being honest with oneself & realising our personal failings & resolving to do better." Very true, I love alone time very much too. I have 2 girls, 5 and 9 and some time to spend alone is very nice. I hope to talk to you soon Bronwyn. Tell me more about yourself ok?

elizabeth
