Blog Topic: Common Sense (9)
Has any of you been just sitting and thinking why did that person do that ? Is the girl really that stupid ? I hate to say this but many of us have no common sense. What is common sense ? Common sense is what some of would call good judgment. How many of you think you have good judgment ?
Good judgment is doing the right thing when it needs to be done. That’s like saying why did you run that stop sign. Good judgment or common sense would tell you I need to stop. I think that good judgment or common sense is linked with the all the other postings. Would you not agree that hard work, goals, planning, honesty, dependably, your attitude, and humility would give most people common sense. Not completely but it is a start. With these it is hard for a person to use common sense. Good judgment would be to have all of the above mentioned traits.
Some would also say that common sense is part of what we have learned and how we were raised. This is also true. But having a understanding of what is right, what is wrong, what is better, and what is not so good. One can have better common senses and judgment not to do something’s and to do others.
So now I ask you the question ??// did you think you have common senses ? now I ask you this did you work on your essay 2 assignment 72 hours before it was do or did you wait until the last minute. If you said you rushed to complete the assignment you did not use your better judgment ……

Humility (8)
Posted By: Robert Alexander
Topic: Humility (8)
“Whoever undertakes to set himself up as a judge of Truth and Knowledge is shipwrecked by the laughter of the gods.” ~ Albert Einstein
This word has so many meanings. Humility is the quality of being modest, and respectful. Humility, in various interpretations, is widely seen as a virtue and a moral. Humility has religious meaning. Humility in many religious and philosophical traditions, being connected with notions of transcendent unity with the universe or one’s divine.
Humility in god’s eyes; to seek God, and His truths, we must become humble. Without humility God will not open the door, and our seeking will be in vain. "And whoso knocketh, to him will he open; and the wise, and the learned, and they that are rich, who are puffed up because of their learning, and their wisdom, and their riches yea, they are they whom he despiseth; and save they shall cast these things away, and consider themselves fools before God, and come down in the depths of humility, he will not open unto them" (2 Nephi 9:42).
I think for one person to understand and to be truly humble person that person must understand honesty. One must understand that one cannot be always right. One must understand defeat. One must respect himself and others to be a humble person. With an understanding of humility one can overcome his weaknesses and become this strengths.
