Do you define a person by their actions or their intentions?
But they both kind of go hand in hand, but if I had to choose one…I think you should define a person by their intentions. Intentions are things that determine actions. Without intentions there would be no actions, I guess?
For example, what if your friend came up to you one day and yells at you. Are still going to still be there friend? I would because maybe that friend is having a bad day or something along those lines. I am not defining my freind by what they did to me I am defining them by there intentions.
Intentions or Actions?
After reading this Story, I thought that it was okay for the newspaper publisher to make the decision of not sending the papers to the school. I think this because the newspaper publisher was just making sure he didn’t want to get in trouble for sending out somthing to the schools that would be considered inappropriate. He didn’t know if someone wouldn’t like that. I don’t think the publisher did anything bad. I am not defining the publisher by his actions, I am defining him by his intentions.
So the question is:
Do you define a person by their actions or their intentions. Some examples might end up being actions, but for the two particular examples above I have to say intentions.
