Recent surveys have shown a decline in morals and ethics. Integrity seems to be a forgotten word. By definition, integrity means “soundness of moral principle and character, complete honesty and uprightness with no masking of intent.” Its opposite is hypocrisy. It means that a person must be openly honest, making certain that he conveys no false claims either in word or in life. Integrity excludes lying, stealing, cheating, and every form of deception. Integrity makes a man completely trustworthy. Proverbs 19:1 says, The Bible describes the blessing one receives for his integrity. A righteous man that walketh in his integrity, blessed are his children after him. In the Bible we find these words of advice, (Deut. 16:1920).

When General Dean was a prisoner of the Communist forces in North Korea, there came a time when he was told that he was soon to be executed before a firing squad. He was given time to write a letter to his wife, in which he included instructions for their son. Under these most severe circumstances he wrote briefly but powerfully, Tell Bill the word is integrity.

Today the Lord instructs us so: “I tell you, the word is INTEGRITY!” Shall we take an oath today to remain completely honest and upright in the sight of God and all men? Lets do it ..........

Integrity, hmm this reminds me about how people sexually abused other in bus or public place. Some might grab the chance of abusing others in a very crowded train. They maybe come from a rich one, a poor one, a person who is religious, a person who often pray. But why those things never had changed their integrity?

The simple is, integrity comes from the realization upon oneself. The realization is the process of valuing himself, respect himself, and has attain a perception of why they self respect, self value, and self understand. By only loving oneself, then one could love others. By respecting oneself, one could respect others. By loving oneself and loving others, one understand the struggle of life, and thus not being selfish, by lowering their ego they realize not becoming hypocrite.

Time changes, so do the values, the system we live in and hence definition of every phenomina around us keeps on changing.Moral values are relative of the environment you are referring to. Integrity you talk about will also change according to the contexts. Today integrity stands for combination of values; including righteousness, honesty, sticking to the norms;and rules and eventually following and setting up standards for new comers. Business environment has core values, which mostly include integrity but the fact remains; there are always two sides of story one evident and second hidden one and at the core. Ultimately we try to remain under our frame of reference. Given a choice our intended behaviour will definitely deviate from the standard one!
