THE FREE MAN AND WOMAN....

OUR MORAL VALUES AND ETHICS

Besides the laws of a country which is controlled by the courts, there are natural laws which are controlled by light and darkness. These are the laws which balance our emotions, our mental comprehension and the outcome of our lives. Moral values and virtues are what gives us our humanness, these are mostly unwritten laws  which uplift us or drag us into the darkness of confusion, fear, depression and helplessness. We have the natural virtues, also called the cardinal virtues, which is justice - fairness, equality, etc ; prudence - discretion, privacy, etc ; temperance - moderation and calmness under stress, self restraint, etc  and fortitude - strength of mind and endurance under hardship and testing. We also have moral excellence, righteousness, responsibility, probity - integrity, uprightness, honesty, goodness ; conformity to morals, obedience to the laws of life and coexistence with all of creation, not only just people ; chastity - purity, decency, modesty ; efficacy - force and power, strength, courage and valour ; sanctity - saintliness and godliness, safe from trespass and temptation...cannot be bought or sold. We have dignity, respect, loyalty, trustworthiness, dependancy reliability and many more. All this has far more to do with the inner man than the flesh. It costs not a dime, these things are not for sale, therefore no can say they we too poor to obtain virtues and values. Certainly some of it we learn by example, some we learn through the way we are treated, some are mental lessons that we will ourselves to obey, we train, we practise it, we use it. Much of it we gather from simply recording within our brains that which is happening around us. Except for sexual morality which affects the body, the rest is mainly an inner process of attitude.....virtues are what balance and bend our wills to do what is proper and right. When we live within the value system and ethics of what us good and right we remain on good footing with most people, as we do not cause harm to others which can boomerang back onto us, therefore keeping peace and serenity within our lives.....these homes are blessed with joy and happiness. We say we love and yet we cheat....what type of love is that ??? ©

Tomorrow we see how it affects our spirit, soul, heart and mind.....
