As for my ethics and values, there are many things I believe in, and are against. For example, I am against drinking and smoking, as I have seen the effects it can have on a person, and how it can tear families apart, and just a person in general. Therefore, I have decided not to ever drink, nor try to get into any situation that would make me test those values on my life.
Just recently, I was in a car wreck, and I now value my life a lot more. I believe in always wearing a seat belt, because they really do save your life. After my accident, I realized how much I need to appreciate everything I have, and not throw it all away foolishly. Because, I realized I have so much to live for, and have a lot more of my life to live, so I re-thought about my values and the way I live my life.
Another value I have is the belief to not have sex before I am married, or at least engaged. Because, in today's society there are so many teenage girls who get pregnant at such a young age and have to become mothers without being able to live the life they were intended and supposed to have. Therefore, I read about those statistics and think "I do not want that to happen to me," so to prevent that, I just do not have sex before I am married. Because, I know already that I would not be able to support a child or be able to provide for that child as much as I would if I was actually ready to be a mother. In addition, my mom got pregnant with me before she was married, however she was engaged to my dad, so I think that scenario is okay, cause I am here now. :) However, my parents have both raised me to believe that true love waits, so that is what I intend to do. That belief also follows my church, which I also follow.
So, those are my ethics and values in my life.
