a basis form Aristotle ‘s view that ethics can be ingrain in our humanity. I was raised in what most people call the “Bible belt of the South”. I grew up in a strong Christian family with a defined view of right and wrong. The Golden Rule was displayed in a frame on the wall. “Always treat others as you would like to be treated yourself”. Ten commandments were ingrain as well as my definition of what is right. After marriage and a somewhat professional life‚ I started to develop my own

What is Life Like as an Educator? I use to think that the best part of being a teacher was the brightly colored bulletin boards‚ the smell of freshly sharpened pencils‚ the Crayola Crayons‚ and the endless supply of organized office supplies neatly placed on the teacher’s desk. I spent countless summers of my childhood assisting my mother‚ a third grade teacher‚ with the annual set up of her classroom. On those hot summer days‚ I admired the creativity‚ organization‚ and enthusiasm my mother holds

What Peace Means to Me… “Peace cannot be kept by force; it can only be achieved by understanding.” This is quoted from a great scientist Albert Einstein. Peace seems to be one important thing that we need nowadays. It’s not the power that makes a person a better one but it’s the peace in his heart that would lead him to a brighter future. Peace‚ for me‚ has to start within ourselves‚ as human beings of this world. We need to achieve an understanding of ourselves‚ finding and seeking our own inner

To me virtue means to be loyal to something that is important to you. In order to be virtuous‚ you must be willing to be truthful with others who care about you or the cause your group is working toward. The combination of loyalty and truthfulness (and probably some other important values like being a generally good person) make up virtue. Virtue is both an act and a state of being.

I don’t know about you‚ but the phrase “…all the rest have thirty-one…” still comes in handy many decades after I learned that song; even though I’ve since learned that it doesn’t delve deeply enough into the formula for assigning Leap Years. The word “mnemonic” – that initial M is silent‚ so it’s pronounced as though it were spelled “nemonic” – is rooted in the name of the Greek goddess of memory‚ Mnemosyne. Like many other names of Greek gods‚ her name is itself a bit of a mouthful:

When someone says they’re Jewish‚ that can mean a couple things. Either that is their religion‚ or their ethnicity‚ it could even be both. Judaism is the term of following the Jewish religion. Judaism isn’t a religion based off of one single founder or central leader‚ nor is it based off theological decisions made from a group. The Judaism religion is better described as an Israel way of life that’s based off of the Tanakh. The Tanakh is essentially a different version of the Christians “Old Testament

For example‚ David Sedaris cannot tell a difference in the quality of food‚ and sometimes can’t even recognize what is on his plate. Food to him is just colors‚ and about having enough to eat. While on the other hand‚ Anthony Bourdain loves all food‚ and can definitely appreciate the quality. He is a chef‚ and appears on some culinary shows. His life
