Never acting unwillingly nor hesitant is the result of a clean conscience which itself stems from a coherence between values and actions. It's more of an utopia, an ideal, and even being able to say "I'm in complete congruence with my inner convictions." in 70 or 80% of one`s actions is to be seen as a huge success. And yet, doubt is a nagging companion most of the time. The action itself does not determine nor control all its outcomes and effects, and even good, pure intentions can cause the opposite. Hence, discovering "consideration" as a core value for oneself bears many advantages. Starting with consideration means in first place taking a step back and contemplating possible effects from different points of view or perspectives, an act which takes the dangerous acceleration of the emotion partially out of the equation. Consideration protects in first order the the society or community, but also oneself, the own being and living, from harmful decisions. Not entirely, and yet noticeable. Additionally, it leads to a certain autonomy of the considerate, granted that it doesn't overwhelm the spirit, paralyzing it.

It's the first time in a long while that I'm writing more than involuntarily encrypted notes. I gave my best to make it somewhat readable.
