IN—TE-GRI-TY. I N T E G R I T Y.
It feels like such an expensive word nowadays.
It used to mean something.
It seems like an outdated word or feeling, or way of life, falling in such disuse that the ones who actually still own it are the weird ones.
Is it really so hard to understand its meaning?
Is it really that hard to live by it?
I understand the thin line between ETHICS – and INTEGRITY – and what needs to be done in order to get the job done.
Even so… even when the job needs to get done, there are so many ways to do it that resonate with a glimpse of RESPECT.
And Integrity.
No one is perfect.
We all know the diference between claiming it and actually walking the talk. It’s putting your money where your mouth is.
How often do we do it?
How often are we even aware of the discrepancy in these opposite sides?
We may not be saints, but for sure, we can be better at UNDERSTANDING, LISTENING and positioning ourselves in a non-bias way.
In such a way that we don’t turn reality into a circus.
In such a way that we RESPECT those around us as HUMAN BEINGS and give a bit more of our LOYALTY, especially to those who believe in us.
In such a way that we ask ourselves a simple, clear and objective question: would I like it if someone did this to me? Would I like it if I was “handled” like this? We’re all lacking a bit more EMPATHY, a bit more in-depth vision, and a lot more SELF-AWARENESS.
In the end, we all settle with the typical, all truth speaking:
it is what it is.
