Personal Narrative: I Am Pilot Knob

The formation of our own personal identities often begins at birth. As you grow up, your parents are a major influence on you. They teach you many things and help to shape your personal identity. They teach you the basics, from knowing right from wrong with your basic moral values. Your moral values are often built upon the basic morals your parents have and what they have taught you in return.

Talking about the defining moment of personal moral challenge, I had one experience facing challenge related to my moral code before. While I was at my elementary school, I was kind of person that trusted everyone without any other thoughts. I just simply believed what other said to me, and was not dare or dislike to reject other’s request. Once there was a classmate and also friend of mine tried to borrow some money from me. He said that his mom was having some financial problems and he and his sister were in bad condition. I knew that his family was a single family and I therefore went to the

I can easily communicate and interact with almost anyone. I do believe that I have a strong “moral compass” since I can tell what is right or wrong and based my decision off of that. But even so, I do not feel like I have made the right choices nor stay on my righteous path all of the time. On many occasions, I find it difficult to identify what the right course of action is due to how both choices can either hurt another person or me. Regardless, I will follow my instinct and do what is right to me, even if it isn’t right to others. To me it’s a necessary evil that will bring the goods

One of civil air patrol's motto's in the cadet program is "rise to the challenge". When I first joined shortly after my 12th birthday I had NO idea what that meant. BUT over time I've learned SO much about myself and my abilities despite my age. Like most cadets...I want to use MY TIME in civil air patrol to inspire and lead...BUT--most of all I want to offer my service....to my friends , my family and my community....

My personal beliefs have formed me over the course of my lifetime by many different influences. Many people have made important impact in my life that have changed my beliefs in society and my life. The major two values that help determine my worldview are God and Ethics they are the ways that help me shape my beliefs, and life decisions. I feel the strongest aspect of my worldview is my tremendous sense of spirituality and the relationship I have with God. All of these beliefs help me every day with my decisions. The moral values I have learned are from many different influences through my

I took a deep breath. It was the big championship game and we had 10 minutes left on the clock and the score was 10-7 we were down by 3. We had 3 runners on the base and 2 outs I was on deck and Brooke was up to bat. I pulled her over to the side and said “you got this were only down by three and I got your back. We have no outs so take your time and hit the ball.” Brooke said “ok thanks and we got this”. The pitcher threw the ball and Brooke hit the ball. It went straight down the 3rd base line. She got a single and now the score was 10-8, I was up. The pitcher through one right down the middle I hit a line drive right to center field and got a double, MG was running home as fast as lightning and slid into home barely making it. The game was

There are many factors that shape us into who we are, and who we will become. Some of these factors we can control, while others we cannot. While we are born into many traits of our identities, much of our other behavior is learned. My identity, for example, is “based not only on responses to the question ‘Who am I?’ but also on responses to the question ‘Who am I in relation to others?’” (Allen, 2011, p. 11). My identity and the question of who I am, are both influenced by many aspects of my life, including my hometown, my family, my friends, and my beliefs and moral values.

In my personal life I value, respect, honesty and loyalty to the highest regard. In the past my morals and values were tested, but never compromised. By creating a code of ethics it has reinforced my values and generated a guideline for upholding them.

Heights - When I was younger, my sister and I was playing in our tree house one day. We were playing tag and I was running by the door. Needless to say, I fell out of the tree house and broke my left leg and my arm.

A person’s identity, is made up of what they think about themselves as well as what other people think about them. There are many stereotypes, based on skin color, race, and even as simple as someone's gender, that can affect how someone portrays themselves or others. Since some of the stereotypes are negative, you have to expand your moral growth and make it so you don’t take the stereotypes seriously, and to make sure that they don’t impact how you see yourself, and your own identity. Moral growth is affected by many factors, but the one factor that can influence someone's moral growth the most is their moral universe. Moral universe is the idea that what goes on around you and how you act in certain situations show your morals and can change based on the situation that you are in.

“Hard right!” shouted my brother. Immediately, I threw the flight simulator into a massive right turn, hoping to line up for a shot at an enemy. Unfortunately for us, it was a little too massive, and we swung to the side, facing the wrong way. I wrestled the controls, and finally stabilized on target.

My moral character was being tested and because it could have a negative effect on other people’s lives, I wrestled with my own beliefs. I needed a

Observing the effect that your moral code has on your thinking will allow you to realise that you are simply reacting to questions, instead of seeking truthful and honest answers. It will also show you how your reactions are based on your moral code and on a lifetime of society’s relentless

Everyone in the world has some sort of ethics on how to live. It is a way to examine what is good and right and an explanation of how people think and act. Everyone also has moral absolutism, which acts as a moral compass for right and wrong. There are numerous types of ethics but one main one I abide by are the Ten Commandments. This includes commands such as: no other gods before Him, do not steal, murder, commit adultery, do not misuse the name of God, and keep the sabbath holy. Each one has a reason I value and believe is important to keep. For example, the first commandment is “no other gods before Him”, this is important for me to keep because, as a Christian, I must regard God as the most important thing in my life. Sometimes this

My personal values act as a basis for determining right and wrong in my daily life. My life, my parents, my husband and my children have all played valuable roles in the development of my core values. The following is an ever changing personal ethics creed, that I plan on using to help guide me in my endeavors.
