In the world of corruption, dishonesty, manipulation, struggle we are constantly either battling to align ourselves and find a way to safe existence or pose ourselves as tough and resistant. Does the integrity and individual goodness even matter? The frustration level increases when we are constantly attacked with the opposites while we exemplify values and ethics.
Stephen Covey author of many best seller books comments, "The more people rationalize cheating, the more it becomes a culture of dishonesty. And that can become a vicious, downward cycle. Because suddenly, if everyone else is cheating, you feel a need to cheat, too.". Very soon we want to establish this strong ideology, "you need to fight your way out" and communicate through all of our walks and talks.

Because suddenly, if everyone else is cheating, you feel a need to cheat, too.". Very soon we want to establish this strong ideology, "you need to fight your way out" and communicate through all of our walks and talks.
Let me present the ideology of each field of science and the core message it wishes to communicate;
Philosophy says, think your way out.
Psychology says, try your way out.
Science says, invent your way out.
Communism says fight your way out.
Fascism says, bluff your way out.
Stoic philosophy says, endure your way out.
Worldliness says, entertain your way out.
Religion says, work your way out.
What we notice is that each branch of science including religion emphasizes its own philosophy, but unless we are empowered by a supernatural power that steers us to value humanity, dignity and integrity, we may just try everything as an option but can still remain unchanged. In the Bible Jesus claims, "I am the way, truth and life", and assures to transform the character and behavior of human life.
Solomon the wisest king comments, "A wicked man puts on a bold face, but as for the upright, he considers, directs, and establishes his way [with the confidence of integrity]". (Proverbs). It is a wonderful gift from God to be a human and when we start valuing, respecting and spreading the essence of love we may surely influence each other to live a life with peace and happiness and restrain pushing our way or fighting it out.
