Core Values

I've been doing a lot of thinking lately.. Mostly because I was asked by someone what my most important core values are... and was asked to choose 4.

I was perplexed and couldn't give an answer off the cuff... there's so much to say and so many but after much thought... I finally came up with those:

1. Honesty
2. Humanity
3. Self-evolution/knowledge
4. Modesty/Humbleness

Now .... Do we think of our core values when we choose a partner in life and whether it is essential that they share the same values? when we start a new job? make new friends? I don't want to dwell on "what if's?" but ... what if we did pay attention to them... would our lives have turned out this way? Would we have made different choices?


Not my usual post... just needed to vent. What are your four core values?
