are you old fashioned or the now fashioned?

of course i'll be biased....it's the values i was taught and brought up in..you are probably thinking old fashioned, right?..

i was born in the now fashioned values, even though i'm this old....huh!....yes, we were all brought up in the now fashioned values..how could it be?, you ask, simple..growing up, we grow up by the signs of the times were in at that time..confusing?, kinda, but not really..

times recycle, do you agree?..look at the fashions, they come back around after so many years, about every 20 to 30 years..

when we were in our adventurous years as we were growing up, we were all venturing into the wild side..some would say, no, not I..i beg to disagree..each one of us had broken house rules, right?, just so to find out for ourselves why it is forbidden to do this or that..most may not have been as riskier as some, but everybody did venture out of their comfort zones, one way or the other..what brought this up?..these were the years that shaped our thinking, our values..

the values are our MORALS..by what morals do you believe/live in?..if you live by the morals of your church or by the standard of conduct of the times you live in now, is when values differ..the church have set centuries old moral standards and are very strict at that, compared to the now that adapts to the ever changing way of life..these are the old fashioned(the churches), and the now fashioned(present) values..per my evaluation....you can disagree as much as you want..

i may live in the now fashioned values/morality of society but i pattern my way of living mostly by what the church has taught me throughout the years..i may not go to church every sunday, but my heart is part of the church..i'm starting to sound very religious....i'm not, i'm a sinner just like everybody else....just that it's how i think, my conscience dictates how i think, how i behave..

so, there's my answer..i was brought up in the now fashioned values and live in it, but i live my life comfortably, following the old fashioned values..it's what my heart/conscience tells me to....

Lets see i was brought up very maria clara type. Even wanted to become a nun at the age of 4yrs? Comtemplating??? Until my ate said they will make you bald. So, that was short lived!!!

Tapos, someone questioned my being old fashion after all the....
And being a goody too shoe??? After all these years at this age! Sino ba sila???

Anyways, being old fashion is ok. And living the now to adapt. Because life is always changing!!! Di ba!!!

becoming a priest crossed my mind too....really..alam mo, i don't really care what people around me think of and about me, it's what i think of me that i care about....with the morals, i may tweak a little bit, but generally, it's the old that i adhere to....

Well said bro... even me I preserved the good old values and manners...there is no way you can let it go and change it with new one's wherein the current norm is not good enough as replacement.

thanks bro..not just that "now" is not good enough, the morals are lost..look at abortion, they'll find an excuse just to have one, because of their mistake, and what about the soul in the woman's womb?..that's why i follow the old....thanks again, bro..
