The values that I hold dear are being a good person, persevering until you achieve success, and always being their for their family members. I believe that these values make me who I am, and without values I would not be me. I have learned what is right and wrong, good and evil from my parents; they are the ones who have taught me hard work leads to success. Not everyone has the same values; each person develops their values by learning from their environment and parents. People are able to distinguish the difference between good and evil by looking at the events that have happened in their lives. Normally, I think that being a good person is natural in society while the bad person is someone who has learn being bad. When I was a kid, I watched The Lion King that made me think about what made a person bad. This movie has received many positive reviews. This movie is one that children watch because the story is relatable in the way that life goes on. It inspires people to take pride in the life that is given to them and live it to the fullest.

Sometimes it can be hard to figure out what you are truly made to do. When I was younger, I did not know what I wanted to be. I was wondering why do I need to choose a career and why cannot I be on my own. Simba left his place of belonging as he thought no one needs him (Allers, Minkoff, 1994). But the truth was everyone needed him. As he was the son of Mufasa, everyone looks up to him. Sometimes people assume that I am smart because my parents are. I think everyone is unique in their own way. Also, everyone can accomplish their goals. They only have to be willing to put in the effort. Simba was afraid to go after Scar after he found out what he did to his father. Reflecting on this, I have to be willing to do something or believe that I will be able to do it; otherwise it will not happen. I faced the adversities with positivity and made it
Some values that my family has instilled in me is that, they help me get through a lot of things in I need help or if I am having trouble with some things. In his family they gave him courage and strength because
Everyone has their own personal values that the gain throughout their lives. Some of these values are passed down through the different generations of their family. Values can change over time and some people learn more values as they grow up. I personally have gained a range of different values in the past eighteen years of my life. My own values include: respect, honesty, empathy and trust. I gained the value of respect through my parents as I was always told to show respect to others and they would then show me respect back. When I was really young I had to respect other people’s things and their feelings. Through my parents I was brought up to believe that it is always better to be honest and tell the truth about everything. I feel that
The difference in the way humans perceive things is part of the complexity of mankind. What is thought of as evil to one person can be seen as good to another, and vice versa. The issue of good and evil is brought up in William Golding’s Lord of the Flies, when innocent boys are set on an island to bear the weight of society on their backs. What happens to them? How do past influences effect them? Are their actions good or evil? The actions of the boys were not a matter of being good or evil, but were actions for survival. A man’s environment does not influence him towards good or evil, nor is he born with it inside. Man has instincts and inner drives that are not matters of good and evil, but of survival.
It is amazing how a seemingly educated woman that has won Oscar awards for her documentaries, could possibly be so far off base in her review of the Disney movie “The Lion King”. Margaret Lazarus has taken a movie made for the entertainment of children and turned it into something that is racist, sexist and stereotypes gender roles. She uses many personal arguments to review the movie but offers few solutions. The author is well organized but she lacks alternate points of view and does not use adequate sources. Lazarus utilizes the statement at the end of her review that “the Disney Magic entranced her children, but they and millions of other children were given hidden messages that could only do them and us harm” (118). She makes her point by saying that “the Disney Magic reinforces and reproduces bigoted and stereotyped views of minorities and women in our society” (Lazarus 117). She makes comparisons such as elephant graveyards are like ghettos (Lazarus 118). Other lines of reasoning Lazarus gives us are about Whoopie Goldberg using inner city dialect, the villain Scar being gay, and only those born to privilege can bring about change (118).
Respect is important; however the most influential values I learned were kindness and the power of knowledge. As a kid, I was taught to work hard and have fun later; we were not allowed to leave the house to party or go out unless we had all our homework done. This meant learning to think critically and efficiently in order to do great work in a small amount of time. My parents dropped out of college so that they could give my sisters and I opportunities they didn't have, for this reason I have learned the value of har...

Values are things that we feel are very important to us. We live our lives by what we value. We hope that people share our values. We hold ourselves to a specific standard according to our values. These are some of the reasons why I believe we should stand up for our values, and share them with others.
During everyone 's lifetime, there is always something we hold closest to our hearts; it maybe our principles we live by, values, and even our own beliefs. Values are those things that are very important to us but never really realize how much we actually value them in our life. Have you ever been asked to define three of your main values and rip them up? I have and I never noticed how much they meant to me. Each and every one of us believes in our own personal values. These values are what gives us strength and strive us to do what makes us happy. These values are very important to us and are standards that we live by whether we realize it or not.

Understanding who we are as individuals can be a struggle for people throughout life. It can be difficult to comprehend who we are and why we exist. There are daily outside influences that help create who we are and what our values are. Values play a significant role in our lives. They shape the choices we make and reveal a big part of our identity to the world. Some values may be more important than others, but they still manage to influence our lives in one way or another, whether we know it or not. Values can range from a tangible item to an idea that has influenced us to stand by and remember those values. The values we hold with the highest importance act as a guide and help us prioritize our purpose and goals in our daily life. My family has taught me a list of values and traits that have helped me become a well-rounded individual. I value my family more than anything because most of my core inner values have started from their teachings at one point or another. My top values that I have developed from my family are dedication, honesty, and wisdom. I will discuss who I am in terms of the important values that shape my personal belief system and decision making framework that, in essence, describes the direction of my life.
Although all of the values on the list are very important, there are a few that are more important to me in that they influenced key decisions in my life, and my life as a whole. The first value that is extremely important to me is “Family”. I wanted to start off with this one because this is definitely the most important one. Family is what motivates me to do my best everyday. From my supportive parents
