Not sure really where this would need to go but I find myself struggling with this often. I am a black and white kind of person. There are gray areas but I tend to look at things in one way or the other; I stay away from the middle and pick a side. I understand that 9/10 of a persons perception substantiates their reality but is it really so unusual for a person think this way? I mean right and wrong is simple. Honor, justice, integrity, commitment....why have these just become words? Why is it most people, in my experience, throw these under a doormat and ignore them? I get so irritated when I see these values thrown aside. Is that so different? Should I get irritated? I only ask this here simply because I find myself struggling with frustration to the point of anger sometimes over this. Maybe I am just a naive idealist....but for example, I have no question that I would give up my life to save another, that others should be treated with courtesy at a bare minimum, that your significant other should be treated with honor and respect, that owning your mistakes and taking responsibility for your actions is a must; is this crazy of me?
