RE: Daily Discussion No. 11: What Does it Mean to be an "Honorable" Person?
Nope,
Society needs Honor now more than ever. Our society is being degraded morally with each passing year and it’s getting worse.
In my generation, no one keeps their word. Truth seem falsified everywhere and people are just being friends with you because you have something material. However forgiveness doesn’t exist in today’s society, if someone forgives another person he is regarded as a saint. Why? Forgiveness is a form of self sacrifice is it not? Shouldn’t forgiveness be universal? Shouldn’t everyone have the capacity to do it?
We are in dire need of some form of honor however not the one that takes people’s lives away.
It does seem like fewer and fewer people keep their word... and they make promises very loosely: They say "can you lend me $20" without actually having even the slightest intention of giving it back later.
And yes, forgiveness seems to be increasingly rare these days... very sad.
