let values be your guide. it is important in this life to know and to act on what we feel is important to us. A life driven by values is a life with direction, and direction is the feeling like we're moving somewhere, somewhere positive. if each day you can act on what you value then you can enrich your life, make it better, improve it. For instance I've been writing letters to friends some of who are nearly strangers, others good friends, but it is the act and the effort which i put into every letter that publishes what I value like a stamp; For Friendship. i write to you because i care to make stronger ties. i write to you because you can make my life rich, and I in turn (hopefully) can yours. I wish to have friends, and to be close to people. This is something I value.
Values can be all sorts of things, but a life driven by value is a life more satisfying, richer, and better for the one who seeks through its pathways.
