Daily Question, September 16

Our core values are among our greatest assets. What are some of my values?

  • GCharlotte

    One of two of my values is my way of shopping with “pennies” and getting a lot with the bargain. The second value is fasting.

  • Mark Featherstone

    the ability to forgive.. to be grateful… and to see the roses among the thorns, being positive, hopeful, optimistic.

  • Malag

    Love, nurture, trust, integrity, growth, creativity, spirituality, adventurous on the road less travelled.

  • Dakota

    Core values include loyalty, trust, hard work, courage and love.

  • Hot Sauce

    My core values are love, wisdom, courage, justice, loyalty, respect, following one’s dharma, open-mindedness, and forgiveness.

  • Dusty Su

    A sense of the genuine, congruence, creation of welcoming inclusive spaces within myself for myself and for others wherein all can feel safe, able to be ourselves, feel valued, loved, and flourish.

  • Linda

    It is important to me to financially support reputable and truthful news sources. I have always been in the helping professions and it is a core value of mine to reach out and help others. Staying fit is important for my long term health and I do all I can to maintain that so as not to be a burden on others.

  • Ose

    To love everyone as myself. As the recent quote of Thich Nhat Hanh said, it is an indispensable prerequisite to love myself first. And I treasure stillness, to which I sometimes can open up. I feel it is gift of sorts and fills me with great joy to share stillness with others, which can be even in the midst of a jam session for example. With deep gratitude for much support of dear ones and friends to open up to live these values is work in progress.

  • DeVonna

    I am a deeply spiritual person and all my decisions and actions come as a result of my core beliefs in God and humanity. I am also a former foster kid, so I value relationships with those I love and trust above everything else.

  • Present Moment

    I am a spiritual being having a material experience.

  • Will Saunders

    My most desirable core value is being giving and thoughtful to others, unconditionally. It’s my way to pay it forward.

  • Ed Schulte

    The “core” Truth behind the ‘Word of the Day’ today. is what I value.

    “Sometimes people get the mistaken notion that spirituality is a separate department of life, the penthouse of existence. But rightly understood, it is a vital awareness that pervades all realms of our being.
    BR. DAVID STEINDL-RAST

  • Mica

    kindness, but I don’t always succeed in my practice

    • Will Saunders

      I think it’s the effort and goal towards kindness that matters most. As long as we keep striving toward that goal, it’s okay if we do not succeed at it.

      • Mica

        Thanks, Will – that’s an optimistic thought

    • Javier Visionquest

      Neither do I. . . It’s a practice, and the universe throws constant opportunities our way so that we can do just that. Skill and persistence, and much love to you, Mica.

      • Mica

        Thanks, Javier – the universe throws me opportunities to fail, too, mainly by being too quick to react unkindly. But hopefully I’m getting better. Love to you, too, Javier

  • Javier Visionquest

    Trust, empathy, and respect are the foundation of any love. . .

  • Zenith

    I notice that the word “core” is used rather than the word “moral”. Is it our values that give us virtue and therefore moral? I think ultimately, we all have the same values. The foremost of which is Love. Everything leads back to love. Forgiveness is another one. And patience. Without love there is no forgiveness which leads to patience. These three. But the greatest is Love.

  • Michele

    Trustworthy, kindness, compassion, loyalty are some of my core values.

  • Christian McEwen

    Do my best to keep steady and kind, and to listen to other people, trying to remember that each person has what George Eliot once called “an equivalent center of self…”

  • Papilio

    Integrity. At lease that’s what I’m always striving for.

  • sunnypatti
    I strive to be genuine, compassionate, loving, and non-judgmental. My belief in God and the Universe and our energetic connection to each other. I am also a hard worker, but I balance my personal well-being with my job and am sure to take care of my body, mind and soul. But I enjoy leading others and teaching them in some manner, as well as being a strong player on a team. Continuing to grown and learn is very important to me, from my professional life to my personal life to my spiritual life. ...

    Being joyful. Life is short. Do things that bring me joy. And NEVER do something I hate for longer than is necessary. I Enjoy the small things. Music, other people, working out, walling, laying down, reading, and so forth.
    I try to be Authentic.
    Be the same person at every occasion in life. Don’t act differently in front of your parents, friends, co-workers, in-laws, and strangers. Stay my true self. And never be afraid of other people’s judgments
