Integrity

The quality of being honest and having strong moral principles

The dictionary definition

Here is another one

Internal consistency or lack of corruption

For me

It means being true to a set of principles, a set of values or set of beliefs

What are my values or set of beliefs?

Its hard to pin down.

It really does depend on the situation

What one man classes as integrity another will class as disingenuous

It comes down to point of view

What a captor and a prisoner call integrity are two different things

Or a buyer and seller

So to go around and hold people up to different levels of integrity is naive

And to hold myself to a broad range of principles is also quite silly

But in terms of defining people who have integrity or not, it comes down to individuals perspectives and situations.

Its a matter of taste

And I if you refuse to do something because of integrity and loose from it then its your choice and you have to be happy with that choice

But you can’t go around and say i have higher integrity then that person

Because my freind

That the game

The game of life
