Here are the twenty classical values that embody core traits of the person you might want to be and/or 
be around:
| LoyaltySpiritualityHumilityCompassionHonestyKindnessIntegritySelflessnessDeterminationGenerosity
 | CourageToleranceTrustworthinessEquanimityAltruismAppreciationEmpathyToughnessSelf-RelianceAttentiveness

This writing is going to be a short one due to personal considerations for the author; it is a long form of 
the Awkward Question of the Week (AQW)
While this author considers self navel gazing a powerful tool towards self improvement, some room has
to set aside towards the examination of other peoples tummies as it were. 
The value of your friends ought to the values you hold yourself accountable for. The values of your 
community are the values you hold yourself to be accountable for.The values of your government ought 
to be what you hold yourself accountable for. 
In consideration of the 20 values above, check of the rules under the categories of self, friends, community, 
government. Then ask yourself, when people make the claim of 'diversity is our strength' what are they 
referring too?
For this author, skin colour, gender, and sexual preference seem to be absent from that traditional
list above 
and that aught to be noted.
Now, this author will consider some values that have risen to the top of our current social construct:
| There is just MEOnline LikesTrollingApathy ConvenienceNarcissismConvenienceEgocentric-ismUBI*Virtue Signaling 
 | Don't be noticed - Cancel CultureIntoleranceTribalismFear, Uncertainty & Doubt (FUD)Virtue SignalingExpectationWhat everCapitulation Who do I hire to fix thingsWhat Ever...
 | 
* UBI stands for Universal Basic Income - where the government takes care of all your basic needs at the 
expense of others, as the government has no money based on any value. 
Once again one can see that the immutable characteristics of a person are missing from Table #2. Perhaps
more people should consider or be apathetic to the fact that there is more to an individual person than 
just having two arms, two legs, a head on the top, or any specific amount of melamine (skin colour).
So now the choice is up to the reader and any future readers, which set of values would the reader purport 
to make a better world? The next seemingly obvious question to be asked is; a better world for whom?
One last point, what Rights do you have that those in your community do not? 
All regards, your author

invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet,
balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders,
give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem,
pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die
gallantly. Specialization is for insects.
