People here do not irritate me.
I am here to observe and learn and see viewpoints other than my own.

true, the sheeple can be irritating, but it can be no small pleasure when, thanks to what advice or observation you may cast before them, one of the sheep finally realizes just why the shepherd is really keeping them.

Treat others like you would like to be treated.

Always forgive, but never forget.

Stand apart from the crowd when needed.

choose with your heart and steer with your brain.

I think those are my common codes I follow. The first one is really the way I live.

Take care of #1. Who #1 is may depend on the situation, but in the long run it´s me.

Choose your battles wisely. That doesn´t mean you should only fight the battles you can win.

Water under the bridge is water under the bridge. Be ready to forgive.

"A Catholic is a person who has plucked up courage to face the incredible and inconceivable idea that somebody else may be wiser than he is." - G.K. Chesterton

In keeping with that "incredible and inconceivable idea," I don't have a personal code of ethics. I don't think I'm special and wise enough to write one.
