Values

Am I strong enough to be challenged by others on my values?

As we grow older, there are a lot of things we have to take charge of, to decide. One of the most important things is choosing one's values. Based on that, one further make other decisions. That rule of thumb, that belief, that compass in everyone's heart, that whispering sound, is our last line of defend to distinguish right from wrong, to say something is important, and others not.

Different people may have different values. Different values lead to different priorities. That's why some may spend their whole life to earn something that others think irrelevant to any kind of success.

The question I have to myself today is: If I were to be challenged by others on my values in life, will I be able to defend myself? Can I walk home after straight 48 hours of work, and still satisfy with my life?
