When you can differentiate between principled behavior and nefarious behavior you have, by definition, values and ethics; but having morals is more than just knowing the difference between right or wrong, it is showing compassion for other people and animals, feeling guilt when you know you have done something wrong, and taking personal responsibility for your actions.

misery characterised my childhood. We were raised in small one-bed room grass thatched house with no electricity, and we lived on a meal a day. My peasant parent could not even afford a bed for the three children then; I remember sharing the straw mattress with my sister that we laid on the floor. We shared the one bedroom house with rats and sometimes creep to our bed to nibble at our toes because…

banter seemed like something typical sisters would do, even though the girls were not quite the most typical sisters. The lighthearted moments that made everyone laugh continued throughout the film. The girls played a prank on Meredith by leaving her mattress out in the middle of the lake. No prank becomes great unless it results in an equally great reaction, which showed in this case when Meredith hilariously overreacted. Seeing this comical moment was a perfect way to end the movie, and it was…

People from all around the world heard the saying “nobody is perfect” and it is true, we are all humans, we all make mistakes, but to what extent does someone stop being clement when that person has endured all the hardship a person gives them after they are condoned several times.
