What Is Value? After compiling a list of the world's most valuable items, recalled what the Dalai Lama told Stanford students in 2010. Follow these five virtues for success in school and life Forgiveness, Patience, Tolerance, Compassion, and Self-Discipline. These virtues are also the values we hold dear, priceless treasures bringing us calm & peace that passes all understanding. Another value is kindness Helping others in need as if you have angelic wings giving warmth to receivers. Trust is a value essential for lovers Dante's love for Beatrice made him journey through Hell ascending to Paradise. The Book of Proverbs tells us to find wisdom & understanding for they are more precious than rubies, silver and gold. Ways of wisdom are pleasantness, and all her paths are peace. A Swiss sage blessed me "May peace be with you." In Einstein's last interview, he advised a Harvard student "Try not to become a man of sucesss, but rather try to become a man of value. He is considered successful who gets more than what he puts in, but a man of value gives more than he receives." Peter Y. Chou Mountain View, 5-5-2021 |
