Many events and attitudes have over taken the values richly engrained in our society, or at least what I thought were engrained in our society. I’ve been at a loss as to what to do to combat these actions of fighting against something rather than fighting for it. I heard a great quote from a martial arts grand master this week. He said to not let our emotions overcome our values. I see so many allowing their emotions to overcome what they truly believe. Find your values and stand on them. Don’t allow them to bend one way or the other when the wind blows, rather stand tall on the values you hold dear.
