Learning What's Important!

If you live anywhere near Central PA, this past week has been tough for you.  As the scandal at Penn State unfolded, our community was rocked with questions....that frankly we never imagined having to contemplate!  Emotions ran high and you found out very quickly where the lines were drawn.  I stood on the side that your morals prevail over any policy that your institution may or may not have in place.  This wasn't the most popular side to stand on, but when I begin to think of our society not stepping up to do the right things...I'm disgusted by what I see.

The later part of this week, my family personally experienced a loss of a great women.  As I watched her dying in the hospital a good friend of her's commented to me that in the end all you have is who you were as a person, your family, friends and love.

Talk about helping me put things into perspective.  We are faced everyday with having to make decisions, that not only affect ourselves by those around us (family, friends, co-workers, clients)  As realtors we have to complete ethics courses to get and keep our license.  Ethics defined by the Webster's Dictonary states "a system of moral principals".   I want to challenge each of you today to ask yourself...."Where do my morals lie?"  If you were dying tomorrow...how would you be remembered?
