What does honor mean to you

Ok well iw as tlaking to a fellow member.. a person on this and yeah what i elarned from him is well something mroe i got reminded of is how many people dont have honor.. so what does the word honor mean to you????

im curious how many of you live by honor

honor to me is the way i live.. i live everyday trying to make sure i hold my honor.... so yeah

I think honor is simply always taking the high road, no matter how easy it would be to slide. To do what's right because it's right, and for no other reason. Accepting that what is honorable might be difficult or terrifying or even mundane and iniglorious, but doing it anyway. Fighting the fights of those who can't fight for themselves, while never, ever using your power over those who are weaker or disadvantaged. And, also, treating everyone else as if you hope that they possess the same honor as yourself.

Hmm... the word "honor" makes me think of a shield. Interesting that it's not a sword, mm?

I agree with you Sibellyne...In that taking the high road equates to honor...But then in many societies honor seems to be long held reputation and pride in one's family.

It's not my definition to honor but in many cultures it is. I mean the word "Honor Killing" says it all.

No, my definition of honor is trust and pride in one self. No matter how bad your life is, honor is the way you are prepared to face that b**** we call "life" wrestle and tame it.

Honor means be proud of yourself and do what you believe in ...

Haha = ] good to see people with honor ^_^ but ive never heard of honor killing o.o ...

Haha nothings up with me.. haha i always love eharing what you ahve to say about stuff... so in depth and i agree with so much of it... i wish i lived in a time where honor was still important to people... i eman its sad when our government doesnt have much honor left... this world is truley losing its honor.. it really is a sad thing but yeah like last foolish i stand up and try to hold onto honor.. my honor is one of the msot important things i have and i refuse to give it up... no matter how far away from it the world slides.... i will stil hold my ground with my honor

Lol

i beleive guns are one of the first thins that started taking away peoples honor.. because now they all sjut hide behind them i dont know... i dont really respect people who sue guns to me they are dihonorable... the chickens way to fight is how i see it

Yeah i neevr said i woujldnt sue one if i had to i jsut think thats it is a chickens weapon... and yeah i dont have any less respect for you for caryying around a gun.. i mean a greatest honor is being willign to give up your honor to protect... but yeah i do not like guns....i mean now adays its no longer survivial of the fitest or anything like that.. its who has the bigger gun.... but yeah if i really ahd to i would use a gun and probably one day in my lfie i might.. i dont live in an area like yours so i ahev no clue what it is like but i know similar situations that could happen there but its not every day life here so yeah... but i still have p most respect for you which is more then i can say for many people in the world

Haha thanks.. and i do hope you get a better life soon = ]

Yea i know iw as really hoping to see mroe people who cared about honor but i guess this is an example of what ahs become of the world

I do to i do to

Honor to me is doing what's right no matter how much harder it makes life for you. It's never letting your personal dislikes or hatred take control of your actions or words. While you can still hate or dislike people you will treat them the same as everyone else simply because it right. Honor is loving the one you love and being prepared to do anything and everything possible to help them to the best of your ability.

1. honesty, fairness, or integrity in one's beliefs and actions: a man of honor.
2. a source of credit or distinction: to be an honor to one's family.
3. high respect, as for worth, merit, or rank: to be held in honor.
4. such respect manifested: a memorial in honor of the dead.
5. high public esteem; fame; glory: He has earned his position of honor.

I just pulled that directly from the dictionary

Lol! :)

Well, honestly, honor to me.... to do things that you are proud to say you have done, are doing, or will do. things that may not matter to anyone else, shouldn't really matter to anyone else, but what you base your life on and what makes you destinct in being who you are.

i'm proud to say i honor my achievements ive made in my career. others may not see it that way. thats why i believe it's important to you and not to anyone else.

does that make sense or did i just ramble!?

Thanks lol!

Honor defines you. honor is standing point in society. without honor you are nothing, to the outside world you are an empty shell.
men have died for honor, bled just to get back to where they were. many were brought low for the sake of honor.
honor gives you the ability to look in the mi9rror and see a halfway worthwhile person.

Honor to me is remembering someone in the best of ways, showing that you are proud of anothers acomplishments. its a word used to say thank you for all you've done for me.
honor is to think highly of oneself or oneother.
to me honor is the highest thing one could be called.
when i die, i want people to honor me..
to come and remember myself and for them to be proud.
<333

Thanks to a fall. i appreciate it

Hmm wow great convo, i see, has been going on while i was away... it is stills ad to see so little people with honor... such few of us who still have a grasp of what is left of the word.... i would really like to see more people who hold honor close to them.. who truley live by the word... that is what i was hoping when i amde this... to see many people who held true to honor... to prove myself wrong that it ahs fallen from the world... but so far i was right... i still wish to be proven wrong though ... so it is very sad that we are the few who beleive in honor out of all the people on this site....

Aww welcome back foolish = ] *sigh* hmm haha i was kinda hoping it was someone new but you always great to have around in here.... hmm yeah this is really sad

Doing the right thing despite the difficulties

Sibyllene NAILED honor. Good writing there, matey.

Indeed, indeed. We should huddle together and pat Sibyllene's back. Sexually.

Jason your first post reminded me exactly of william...ANYWHO
