Integrity

By definition, integrity is the steadfast adherence to a strict moral or ethical code. I view integrity as more of a skill. As with all skills, they are developed and learned over time, kind of like math. I believe that this is also true with integrity. Integrity must endure years of exposure because integrity is not necessarily inherent with a person's personality. Integrity is a reference or goal that is used to make decisions that are both affiliated with truth and honesty. The foundation of our integrity is formed when we are younger and continues to be built as we grow old. Certain events that occur in our life add support the building of our integrity. I also believe that it is critical to note that integrity can be lost or compromised beyond recognition in a person's life. If you come to this point in your life, you need to pick yourself up and help to restructure your building blocks. In the end, integrity holds our true values and it is up to us to let them out.

About My Blog Title

When asked to choose a title for my blog I found it very difficult to pick one that best described my journal and personality. I wanted it to be something that best fit my profile, applied to the assignment, and at the same time expressed a little creativity. Courtney's Corner was the one thing that stuck in my mind, and I knew then, that that was going to be the perfect title for my online journal. I like to think of this blog as my own little personal space where i can write about my feelings towards certain topics, and work on putting the pieces together for my writer's toolbox. During my childhood, one of my favorite things to do was go to the little desk in the corner of my room. This is where I would go to get away, and do things like color in my favorite coloring book, read some of my favorite Dr. Seuss books, and write letters to my mom and dad so that they could put them on the refrigerator. I thought adding "Corner" into my blog title would not only be a creative name, but add a personal touch to my journal because this is truly where my writing career took off.
