So the question I have is...  what do you stand for? 

Do we even think about things like this anymore?  Do we stand for truth? Honesty?  Compassion?  Standing to help others?  Teaching our youth? 

I would be curious as to what your answer would be...  hmmm... 

Now what is my answer?  Ooops, that is a hard question!

Why do you think this question is so hard to answer?

So hard to answer because we try to be everything to everyone.  We mold to what the situation calls for. 

I stand for the underdog....

Chris, I stand for my family because they are at the forefront of everything I do and I stand for America because it is still the greatest country in the world! Ask the woman from Bolivia, a seasonal worker at a theme park who said she hated the U.S., I told her to GO HOME!

Chris, That's a tough question to narrow down... God, Family, country for example would definitely fit.  Ethical treatment of our clients and others...sometimes standing up for co-workers too new to be able to state their opinions without repercussions...for those in need through charitable giving.

What I DON'T stand for is one political party or the other, being treated poorly by a service I pay for...

Roger - You're welcome!  :)  Hmm...  It is an interesting question.  I can say that my family and being a role model for others is what is important to me.  :)
