ACTIVITY 2: REFLECTION ESSAY

I never thought about ethics. I'm aware of the definition of ethics, but I have no
idea how much it encompasses or how important ethics is in our lives; I was unaware of
how it covers our whole lives of how we must live in this world that the ethics is at the
center of people’s everyday life. When I thought of what ethical conduct means to oneself,
it always left me with an open thought and in answer situation, and since I didn't know
anything about ethics or how significant it is in our lives at the time, I did things I didn't
realize were unethical. If I look back on my life and the choices I've made, I'm sure I did
things I didn't realize were unethical. However, this does not imply that I have committed
numerous acts of unethical behavior; all I want to express is my lack of thorough
knowledge about the nature of ethics in human.

Nowadays, everyone has their own set of values, principles, and ethical standards
that they adhere to, and these things are the factors that influence our life choices. Day
after day, our values and morals are tested. The most important thing, in my opinion, is
to stand firm in your convictions. Whether I do so knowingly or unintentionally, I might
encounter or make unethical life decisions in the future, and I believe that's exactly how
life is. There will be times where I'll have to make tough decisions, particularly if any of
my options will have an impact on anyone, but in the end, I know the decision is still up
to me, whether the decisions are both complicated it's still up to me to make or find
possible ways to avoid unethical life choices and choose the right and best decision.
However, not all tasks and challenges in life include making a decision, nevertheless, the
manner in which you complete them can be viewed as an ethical or immoral decision to
complete the challenge or task at hand. So far, I do not have much broad knowledge
regarding ethics as a whole, but I'm certain that as I progress through this class, I'll gain
a better understanding of the subject and as well as adapting it of what I will learn in this
class on what I should and shouldn't do while making ethical decisions and dealing with
life's challenges.
