My Values

To find my values, I have used the task we were set in class. The values that I try to incorporate into my life are:

Fun
Success/Achievement
Family/Friendship
Perfection
Respect
Honesty
Love
Happiness
Integrity

Fun is important in my life because without fun, life would be very boring and stupid. An example in my life that shows this is that most of the time I have a lot of energy so I am always running around, being silly and having fun.

Family and friendship is also extremely important in life because basically, you incorporate values from them. Family and friends are there whenever you need it, even if it is just for love and support. One of the worst things I can imagine, is if I didn't have any family or friends.

I am a perfectionist, so I try my hardest wherever I go and whatever I do. Therefore, a perfection value is apparent in my life. For example, I love running, but I dread cross country because I know that I am not going to win, even if I come in the top 10, I am not too happy because I was aiming for a podium position.

Respect, integrity and honesty is important in my life because I was brought up to have these values, and I want to be the best person I can be.

To put all of these values into my life, I can pray to Jesus to help me through the day and for me to be the best person I can be. I usually prefer to pray when it is quiet and nobody is around because it is then easier to 'travel' into the chaos realm. It would then be sacred space because I am encountering God's realm (divine world) and leaving the profane realm.

I would also learn from the mistakes I have made during the day, and try to work harder at the values I need to incorporate into my life more.
