Time and time again I find myself in a conflict with others who laugh at me for having a code of ethics. I am not saying im perfect and I have broken my share of rules its just I'm the type of person who if they found a million dollars in a briefcase I would return it. I am laughed at for this and told my ideals are way out of date.

No, your ideals are not out of date, it just isn't easy to live by. Most people laugh it off because they don't have high standard of morals and values for life and self that you have. They find it easier to live by the "everything exists for me" rule. The don't care about who they hurt or what they do.
Continue living your good life, it's much more rewarding spiritually and you're richer in mind and soul for it.

Its hard to have a code of ethics with no basis behind it. If, for instance, you believe that the world evolved randomly, you are an accident; a mere freak of nature. Who says you shouldn't be able to do whatever you want to bring yourself pleasure in the short life you have to live? I think there is a shortage of people with ethics these days, because of what our society teaches--you don't need anyone else, you don't have to care for anyone else--you just have to take care of yourself. If we evolved, there is no basis for us to have souls, so why should we have morals?
I personally have morals, because I follow a God whose way is love. I'm called to love my neighbor as myself, so the good I do, I try to do out of love for others.

Yes, I have a code of ethics I live by. As a Norse Pagan, I live by the Asatru Nine Noble Virtues. It isn't always easy, but then it's not supposed to be. If it were everyone would do it.

Life is hard, but meaningful.
The purpose of evolution is to face our problems and grow in wisdom by overcoming them.
A man is made "perfect through sufferings". (Heb. 2:10)

there's a saying "you in basic terms stay once so stay many situations" and in respond to it someone reported "in basic terms cowards stay many situations" in connection with the party and the way it pertains to dignity and respect. The initial quote observed the very shown truth that when we seclude our selves to be the chief or the follower we stay all our existence a similar way, by residing many situations it became meant to be each and every of the pieces that you desire so that you'll locate trough others. the answer is meant to damage the honour that the first man or woman presented with the quote to been ok in case you decide on to decision from been ideal, and the answer disrespects the perspectives of the guy of the first quote in route of speaking of ones self. I surely have continuously believed that we is in simple terms no longer satisfied until eventually we first settle for ourself as what we quite are, lairs, cheaters, solid hearted, angels, or what ever we extremely are, and no man or woman is acquainted with yet our selves. As for judging our selves as you ought to assume from the previous we talk pretty of our selves on a similar time when we expect of we are putting our selves down, there are continuously situations of been ideal to ourselves. Is in our nature to study yet for the most section advance to ourself and our vanity to percentage what we study making certain that's our view. solid party Einstein no longer a ineffective guy or a grasping guy yet subconsciously he made certain no man or woman will forget who he became. solid success on your challenge and ought to we meet again and with slightly of success have the answer to the thanks to settle for ourselves for what we are..
