There are quotes that come to mind
when the word honor is brought up.
"Honor thy father and thy mother
that thy days may be long upon the
earth." Ex. 20:12 . . . And of course,
"Honor among thieves," along with
its own lurid history.
I have always understood that honor
is important; hugely important! I
often heard my father referred to as,
"a man of honor." I know this meant
a great deal to him. We all know that
person about whom this can be said.
We get it!
I believe the way one treats others
directly reflects the honor one
possesses. This is truly important
to me; I certainly hope this will
always be so!
A new year is soon approaching,
so obviously, we're all thinking
about those things in which we
wish to do better. I am certainly
going to pay attention to honor.
This matters . . .
"Honor is a gift man gives himself."
~Ricky Gervais
as my father lived
longing to live with honor
so matters to me
