How human’s values be defined

In the article, the author, Lewis, talks about how values be defined and how they have been changed in different culture and society. Values, which in some ways can be synonymous with beliefs and personal evaluations, are always defined upon those positive, beautiful parts (Lewis 3). It is hard to give our beliefs or personal evaluations a certain way to be described; thus values, like a general tag of our beliefs, has been created. About half year ago, I took a course that asked us to do a PowerPoint to introduce our top three values that influence me most. At first, it is quite complicated to come up with a certain word to describe the cryptic ideas of how I feel to be affected by some “values”. In my mind, there are only some general ideas of how I feel and do in daily time. To define them, I went to Google and search about what are humans’ values are, and try to find my feelings and beliefs which are fitted into these categories. After what, the How comes out: how our values being changing overtime? When I trying to figure out which value category fit me, I am considering my culture, my identity, my personality and some thins in general, like science. As a consequence, can we say that our culture, our society build our values? or even like if our values, are what the society taught us, our culture built us?
