This statement is not paradoxical because we do not have to sacrifice ourselves to help others. Helping others gives people a sense of humanity and a feeling of hope. 2. According to Russell, what would the traditional moralist say about the belief that” love should be unselfish.” According to Russell, a traditional moralist would agree with this statement. A traditional moralist supports this statement and says that if you love someone what you do should be for their benefit.
To remain receptive to the intuitive process, an individual must trust in himself. Emerson and Kant warn that conformity and consistency in one’s thinking and acting permits society to dictate an individual’s being; therefore undermining the notion of taking responsibility for one’s own mind. This in turn creates barriers the individual must overcome in order to reach enlightenment. In “Self-Reliance”, Emerson believes that the individual loses a part of himself by not being self sufficient enough to trust ones opinions. “A man should learn to detect and watch that gleam of light which flashes across his mind from within…In every work of genius we recognize our own rejected thoughts; they come back to us with a certain alienated majesty…They teach us to abide by our spontaneous impression with good humored inflexibility…” (Emerson, 164) Emerson stresses not the substance of the ‘‘rejected thoughts’’, but their quality of ‘‘majesty’’ or greatness.
With every opportunity of listening I will be mindful of creating a safe environment where clarity, understanding, and listening can take place effectively. More, important I should keep in mind how God listen to us. He listen to other with a love, compassion and caring heart. I want to do more listening and slow to speak. James 1:19 (KJV) says, “Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath.” Taking the correct actions when listening will allow me to mend broken relationship due to lack of communication or listening skills.
He means that if the venture needs you to be anyone else but yourself, it will lead to no good. This reveals to me that Thoreau believes strongly in the individual, being yourself, and seeking your own path. This quote is also applicable to modern life because many ventures nowadays require you to conform for some purpose. The second aphorism I remembered is “Our life is frittered away by detail...Simplicity, simplicity.” Thoreau means that our focus and attention to detail now in society and culture do nothing but to waste our lives away needlessly. He believes simplicity is the better choice.
A benefit for my position would be that you don't have to do something just because some deity or someone says its right. You do something because you know its right. Also, you are not restricted in what you do by something. You can live your life how you want to. But a drawback would be that you wouldn't be living for goodness or for a deity, you would be living for yourself and this could seem selfish to some.
You must think about the point of life is to complete your goal so why let other thing get in your way. Having individualism will help this. It helps because you’re not comparing yourself to others. You feel that if you have respect for yourself and you like whatever you do you’ll be fine. If you don’t have individualism you will always want to have what she or he has or what they do.
Also, it shows that it’s only guiding the situationist, rather than telling them, as they should make the most loving decision, and there could be two options that could have the same amount of love in their outcome. In contrast though, it states that you “must” which isn’t guiding, but telling. The second presumption is relativism, which states that there is no absolute and so you should make the most loving decision, however, no decision is ultimately going to be the right one for everyone. This guides the situationist in the way that they are again making the decision on what they feel is the most loving thing to do. However, if someone following situation ethics wasn’t a Christian, then they would be forced to make a decision based on a religion that they don’t believe in; but it could be argued that Christian love is similar to religions all around the world.
If one can remain completely honest their word would never be tarnished there by affording them more opportunities. An impeccable person demands your full trust. One of my personal beliefs is that there is never a real reason to lie. When one becomes perceived as a liar it becomes your human nature to protect yourself from them. However you may have felt about them before, you can’t help but distance yourself from them now.
According to Vonnegut , you should fine the subject that you care about In which you in your heart feel other should be care about. This is natural caring which will be the most interesting and teased element; don’t ramble, we may not discuss too widespread because it will make a paragraph out of focus; keep it simple, use simple language in order to the reader easy to understand what you mean; have guts to cut, If a sentence no matter how excellent, don’t afraid to scratch the sentence out if it doesn’t support the subject that you talk about; sound like yourself, no matter what your first language you should treasure it all your life; say what you mean to say, select the most effective words ,and relating words to one another unambiguously; pity the reader , they have to be able to identify thousand of little mark paper and make sense of them immediately; In addition , there are several elements are considered in order to make style in writing , they are :
In order to make someone else happy, you must be happy with yourself. Life’s choices, treatment of others should be made with the best of intentions and cause no harm to others. Scalet and Arthur (2014) have suggested the quality of life is determined by activities and that a happy person will never do what is hateful and mean but will live life with dignity and always do what is best. Kant’s theory suggests that actions determine morality and one must not only act in accordance to duty but for the sake of
