This course
is for those who want to address and resolve tough choices through
energetic self-reflection, a sense of vision, some deep core of
ethical values, that gives them the courage to stand up to tough
choices.
These tough choices don not center
upon right versus wrong. They involve right versus right. They are
genuine dilemmas precisely because each side is firmly rooted in
one of our basic, core values. Four such dilemmas are so common
to our experience that they stand as models, patterns, or paradigms.
They are:
Truth versus loyalty
Individual versus community
Short-term versus long-term
Justice versus mercy
