For me there are only two that matter.
Truth- Not telling the truth, but discovering the truth. This is the one thing that I want out of life.
Honor- This is something that I need to work on. I do alot of little things that I'm not proud of and I'd like to change that.

Definately honor and dignity. I do what I think is right regardless of what others think. I'm pretty old fashioned given that I am only 19 I guess. Like my friends have told me that I don't need to pay for my girlfriend's meals and stuff because, and I quote, "We aren't in the 50's anymore". To me the guy pays and that's just the way it is. I try to be a gentleman and paying for the meal is proper behavior.
Being honest with my girlfriend in everyway. I tell her everything and I mean everything. Even when I know she would rather have me lie I am still honest.
I love discovery. I NEED to discover new things within me and around me. I am one of the most curious people you will never meet. I always questions people of what they do and why they do it that way. I know I get annoying sometimes but I can't help it. I just need to know everything.
In the course of a week I tell dozens of little lies and I want to eliminate that ASAP.

if you read the "I want weed" thread you will see that when i was younger i did drugs for a bit. that bit was between 6 and 12 months. hardcore for 6 months and sparatically for 6.
when i quit i was a completely different person.
My mind had been so completely changed its scary. I have hurt many a persons's feelings and put myself in ALOT of trouble for not lieing but i stayed true to myself. I am not above lieing BUT i do my best not to do it.

honesty.............. I am ALWAYS honest... Sometimes it gets me into big trouble but I am always honest. My dad always tought me that you have to take the consequenses of what you did. If I pulled some **** at school and somebody asked me if I did that I would just say yes and take the punishment... Even when I am chatting on AIM and I have to take a **** I am honest and just say... BRB, I have to take a ****... For me there is no point in lying.
Honor is important as well.... I think about everything I do before I do it and if I make a choice to do something, I do it good! If later I found out that what I did was wrong then I'll take the consequenses of my actions but at least I don't regret what I did because IMO it was the right thing to do.

respect, honesty, integrity, trust, etc.
everybody knows the proper way to live a life. that's not the hard part though. the hard part is keeping those values during the dark times.
if you can hold true, and not let the world drag you into ****, then you accomplish what 99% of people cannot. at that point, you can rise above the rest.
i dictate every action of my life upon:
IT IS NOT WHERE YOU STAND BUT IN WHICH DIRECTION YOU MOVE
and that will tell you and everyone else in your life what kind of a person you really are.
