I am thinking how I shape my most important life values so far. I studying every day in the campus. I consider studying is one of the top important part of my life. Maybe there are not too much relationship between studying and the above form directly. I still belive that the five factors affect my studying indirectly. As the No.1 important factor, my family encourage me to studying in a country that I do not familiar. They consider studying can help me to get a good career future. Because my parents suggest me studying is so important that I shape my value I need to go to school every day.

My goal for my future is all around my family. Family let me know that studying is a reasonability. Personally, because my parents want me to studying, so I work hard for my studying. For myself, if I want to improve my family’s life I need to get a job and become wealth, For each person, I belive that they have different kinds of standard for their value. I consider people’s value are mainly depend on their different satisfaction for their life. I haven’t got too much plan for my future. But what I know is I need to improve myself that I can create a better environment for my parents and my family.

 

 

Value

Apr9

In Lewis H’s  article(1990), he talk a lot about the topic what value is and how people shape their value in their life. I consider this is an excellent article. I totally agree that Lewis divided  6 ways for people to shape their value. As Lewis mentioned in the article, there’s no one can identify whose value is right or wrong, people’s  instincts can shape different kinds of value. I come from China, a county with an long history. long long ago, Chinese philosophers begun to argue that people should shape their value according to their instincts or not. A Chinese philosopher whose name is Confucius encourage people to focus on their inner cultivation, he consider human should use ritual to reduce the evil inner characteristics like sex, greed. Confucius’s idea is a important part of traditional Chinese education. I agree that society can get benefits from educated people by ritual, however, I disagree that count the characteristics like sex as evil. Humans are born with instincts. Some people come from eastern might oppose to show artworks or photos of sex in the museum until today.  Because the education they get from school and family describe sex as a  mystical things when they were still young. I consider sex is an holy actives. It’s only way human can produce descendant.  I think people who consider sex as evil shape their value from authority. Family and school are a kind of authority. Human can shape their value by authority. Actually, I consider each people is individual, they all get unique value. For value, people might no necessary to judge right or wrong.  Human live in the community. They can affect each other and modify their value by themselves. No one should be the role model, people should choose the value they want to be. I found that people cannot shape their value only just see or hear the things. When I was a little kids, I hear a lot information about US people treat Chinese as an enemy during my school. However, after I been to Unite State, I found that what I hear is totally different from what I saw. I still not sure how people should shape their value, but what I thought is people should have their own judgement, have ability to analyze different kinds information, then studying and accumulate their knowledge.
