As we try to behave justly in all our human interactions, as we uncompromisingly seek integrity, we find tremendous joy within ourselves.
The 16th-century Spanish writer Miguel de Cervantes said, “The road is always greater than the inn.” The Merriam-Webster dictionary defines integrity as “firm adherence to a code, especially of moral or artistic values, an unimpaired condition, or the quality or state of being complete or undivided.”
The Universal Declaration of Human Rights states, “Everyone has the right to life, liberty and security of person.” The fact that we make excuses as to why this principle applies only to certain people is evidence of the fact that our world lacks integrity. We’ve seen similar integrity in the Indigenous community in Canada. Despite what was written in our history books about the benevolence of Canada and how we were “only trying to give those kids an education,” despite having rocks thrown at the elderly members of their community by white Canadians and having to stand off against the Canadian army in Quebec in 1990, they embraced their integrity and stood firm.
