High Moral Character

By Abe Newmeyer, November 5, 2019

Relationships & Others

Character is the mental and moral qualities distinctive to an individual and moral is defined as holding or manifesting high principles for proper conduct. Proper is defined as truly what something is said or regarded to be or genuine. One possessing “high moral character” could be defined as holding genuine principles. I had to look up those definitions after a conversation with Mike last night.

He and I had a conversation regarding my behavior towards Sarah and I was explaining how I’d been slightly disturbed; as if I’d missed out on an opportunity. Mike thoroughly and explicitly explained I’d behaved like someone with high moral character. My behavior wasn’t something to regret but rather something to be admired. I’d behaved with character.

The older I get, the more important long time friends become. Having relationships with those who’ve known me for decades is vital. A simple, concise, and candid conversation alleviated trepidation and anxiety within mere minutes. A trusted conversation with valuable counsel fit the bill.

Today, Tuesday, November 5, 2019, I am grateful that:

Mike and I had a conversation beneficial to us both. Probably more so me than him but beneficial nonetheless. It’s great to have strong members within my circle.

Abby and I had a great conversation today. I’m considering starting an alliance with her and learning/teaching her about some opportunities to generate an income that’ll allow us both to become self sufficient financially. It’s challenging to live within an environment when I’m certain my abilities can help impact more people yet feeling as if I haven’t done enough.

I sat down and revisited my purpose and the benefits of accomplishing said item. I’ve been living with focus for more than a couple of years and I will continue on that path, yet, at certain times, it’s appropriate to make course corrections. Yesterday was a time of contemplation and reflection and having done so, it’s time to move forward resolutely.

Display High Moral Character. Move Resolutely. Be Impactful!
