Personal Values

My values?  Ok then:

First of all, I would define "values" as things either physical (like family, and friends) or more ethereal (like faith, or morals) that have a lasting presence and impact in our lives.

I may have mentioned before, but my main values are family, my faith, and music.  My friends and my fraternity are also both very valuable to me.  On the more immaterial side of things, I value honesty, self-respect, and optimism.  Punctuality is also something that is important (and something I need to work on), that in today's society is sometimes taken for granted.  Let's see......an empathetic mindset is something I appreciate, as conversation is much more intelligent when all parties take the time to look at opposing viewpoints, and formulate a bigger picture.  

And finally...

It's been said that laughter is the best medicine, and I find that to be the case.  I feel like if you can laugh with someone, then everything else comes naturally.  It is the most effective icebreaker.  I try to crack a smile out of people when I can, because I know for a fact that if you can laugh with someone, other people gravitate toward you.  Granted, it is also important to know when laughter isn't appropriate.  So no more dead baby jokes.

Haha
