And that irrefutable truth of The Little Prince takes on dimensions in the current crisis of human values, whose Cuban response is the Battle for Culture, Education, Ideas, Human Health, Solidarity and the Defense of all the achievements that many times seem to us part of our daily life.
Sometimes it demands the curiosity of a visitor or a piece of news to reflect on a common fact, to then take up again the critical vision: Hey, how we have lost human values, this is every man for himself!
AND…, IT SHOULD NOT BE LIKE THAT!
The butcher mistreated his neighbor Maria, without knowing that his wife was treated in the hospital Maria’s daughter.
A neighbor responds with violence against the butcher, who has already succeeded in life: he has a motorcycle, gold chains, a house built in record time and does not care if the company was late to pay the wages, but, this butcher has children who receive free education, he does not pay health services and he thinks it is fair to challenge others with the daily phrase:
«Ah, it’s a lie that money isn’t everything!”
When a state measure or the pressure for lost time comes, the sad monologue of which few talk about arises:
Who am I? My senses in time and space.
What is my truth? That is, I know or I don’t.
Who trusts me?
How far do I believe or doubt?
Should I do or not do something positive, that is, what is my kindness?
Do I like to live in harmony or not?
And finally,
Do I want or not to contribute to human betterment?
In these reflections, many are lost for lack of orientation and knowledge, when it is vital to define the existence, your truths, what you believe in and the values that are not only defined in mere respect and knowledge.
There are also the principles.
«Principles are non-negotiable.»
That’s what I always tell my students about the role of virtue utility, and you will be a virtuous not because you have money, business skills and hoarding objects.
NO!
President Diaz-Canel holds meetings at COP28
| An All-out Fight to Social Indiscipline Author: Santiago Romero Chang By: Santiago Romero. Social Indiscipline.- If people yell at home, they also do it in the street; if a son disrespects his father, it is impossible for him to have any consideration for anyone outside the home; that is why many behave everywhere as if they were the «hub of the universe», and the worst thing, in most cases they do not know how to speak. |
«That virtue is knowledge and only if you know, if you can achieve the good!»
In other words:
Why do you hoard knowledge, if you cultivate individualism, you do not help anyone, not even to perceive the good?
Then, you will realize the serious distortion that exists on the true codes of human values.
As Cintio Vitier said:
«That Sun of the Moral World».
The formation of values: «that sun of the moral world»
