I think honor in its fullest, is nothing less than glorious, beautiful to behold and partake in, admirable, and inspiring. Almost a super human trait that has been imbued into humanity. And even possibly within the animal realm on some levels.
When did 'honor' begin? And, is this precious attribute all but lost now, in these post-modern moral wasteland societies?
Honor is within every culture, yet varies in what’s customarily expected. And even within different cultures, there are various groups, which uphold their own distinct convictions.
Yes, and like you seemed to indicate, the standard of “honor”, for whatever reason, does vary from human females, to males, well at least as I can see, in “caucasian” societies.
How does a person determine their degree of honor? Doesn’t it really rely on who they are looking towards for approval? I’ve heard countless people say “I want my mother/father to be proud of me”
Innumerable people die for honor, and I think it’s something in which everyone ultimately strives for, because “no one” seems to want to die ingloriously...therefore yes of course honor has much value.
I guess to me, honor represents something in which displays the amount of sentience someone has achieved. This thus determines the real value of that soul’s experience.
Can honor be translated as ones level of devotion or allegiance to a particular group? Whatever it is, a person in the end only seems to be honored as much as they devoted their lives to their proclaimed cause.
As for white dominated societies, especially in the U.S....presently things are looking kind of bleak in regards to honor and common sense of sustainable morality...it’s disintegrating before our own bleeding eyes.
If we don’t reawaken these qualities within our hearts and views, we will surely be undone (“exterminated” ), as a people in the world, for the pestilent scourge of “roaches” we’ve allowed ourselves, our children, and our governments and industries to become...
