My Personal Moral Development of

Morality
(reflection)
I’m ethics commonly fall under what is called utilitarianism. This means that when
confronted with ethical dilemmas you are most likely to maximize the greater good for the
majority people that are affected by your actions. “Greater good”, essentially means happiness
of pleasure according to this utilitarian perspective. Therefore, how you deem what is right and
wrong is based on what decision optimizes happiness, and also, I’m stage 3 in good
interpersonal relations, this stage is in kohlberg’s second level of moral development, known as
Conventional Morality. Most adults operate from this level of moral development. Morality is
viewed in a way that takes one’s perceptional of his or her circle of influence into account.
Expectations of what is considered” good” behavior to family or the community circle become
important in evaluating moral decisions. Moral is concerned with the principles of right and
wrong behavior and the goodness or badness of human character. And also holding or
manifesting high principles for proper product. I’m the person with high morals. To
acknowledge my fear. It’s alright that my feeling some fear. Trying to repress it so that you don’t
feel it at all will only make it bigger and scarier. Feel the fear. Sit with it for a bit. Then let it go.
I shouldn’t stop to become a moral courage because the only way to become a person of great
moral character is the think, speak and act like one all the time and to accept the inevitable
suffering that it may well bring you. There are no shortcuts and it will never be easy.
