5. Never send anything via email that you wouldn't want published |
|
Not really the rule I LIVE by (which is treat others how you want to be treated) but MAN has it saved me a world of trouble.
Can't tell you how many emails I've re-written to be more diplomatic, and then found out that someone (purposely or accidentally) forwarded them.

Sorry, lioness.
I'm very good about being generally and broadly moral, but I have to think about what would be sacrosanct. I am too good a rationalizer to be hard and fast. My goal is not to hurt people, but sometimes I choose actions that could hurt someone, normally because I can make an argument for it at the time.
I am interested in how others answer.

22. *ALWAYS* keep your word, no matter what.. |
|
I guess I'm still old school on this subject. I think a person's handshake and their word are more important and more binding than any legal contract. If you're gonna talk the talk, you damned well better be able to walk the walk. That's just how I feel, and if I don't trust you, no amount of legal contracts are gonna change my mind about having anything to do with you.
My standard reply, when listening to something I know is bullshit: "Hey, I lived through Hurricane Andrew pal, so I've heard the wind blow before. Save that shit for someone else!"

use, abuse, or take advantage of anyone less fortunate than myself - either economically, socially, mentally, or psychologically.
Not that I've always been able to pull that off. I'm only human. :shrug: - but it's what I try to do. And if I fail, to admit it, apologize, and try to make amends in some way. Even if I can't to that particular person, then to someone else, ya know?
Sounds kinda cheezy - but there ya go.
Oh yeah - my "betters" are fair game! :evilgrin:

That said, It is the golden rule, the voice of my conscience, my great master, and humble servant.

85. Mine: "Every rule has exceptions." |
|
Edited on Wed Jan-24-07 10:43 PM by MJDuncan1982
I'm not saying that because it is paradoxical. I've yet to find a rule that is airtight.

92. Honesty is the best policy... When you tell the truth it feels good! |
|
I've always lived by that rule and it never has
betrayed me. Sounds corny, I know but there
is nothing like having a clean conscience and
sleeping well every night

97. Free the feet you free the mind |
|
Actually that means don't wear socks to bed or when I sleep if I can help it.
I have several rules
Hat on a bed is bad luck-I got that from a movie but I still live by it No smoking at a gas station-since I don't smoke anymore this one doesn't come up too much

98. Do not be silent in the face of injustice. |
|
Speak up. I feel if I don't in certain situations, no one will...and I've usually been right about that.

108. Never kill another person |
|
Even in self defense. Mortally wound, yes, but never take life.
I'm more pro-life than operation rescue.
If it has tasted life - then we are in no position to take it.

114. I'll NEVER strike my son. Ever. Period. |
|
He is 26 months now so of course spanking etc... isn't even an issue at this point but I'm talking about a permanent rule to last throughout his childhood. I can be very stern, even strict, with him when necessary. I will discipline him and punish him as needed to insure that he understands my version of right and wrong and sticks to it but I am going to find a way to do it without relying on the physical violence and intimidation that my, and many parents of that generation, depended so heavily on.

116. Besides God, nothing comes before my family... |
|
Especially when it comes to my daughter, my SO, and my mother. In that order. If either one of them were ever in a serious predicament that requires me to drop everything (ex. my job), I'm there for them. I put them before myself all of the time. :hi:

Seriously, it may be that there's nothing I absolutely wouldn't do...but there are some I hope I'll always be able to follow:
Never be unfaithful to my wife. Never be the first to resort to violence. Never use more than the barest minimum of violence.

125. Never hit below the belt. |
|
This is especially true with those one is closest to, because you know their Achilles heel, just as they know yours. One can have a disagreement with someone, even an raging argument, but hittin' the person where it hurts (I don't mean literally hitting them; I'd not do that) is the lowest of the low.
