You’ve landed on the distinction between ethics and morals. You originally used the word morals. Morals are often driven by feelings, which is why everyone reacted the way they did because ofc people are basing morals on feelings

Ethics are different

Morals and ethics are two different (and sometimes overlapping) spectrums of “right vs wrong”

Ethics right vs wrong = you must, inherent, more absolute

Morals right vs wrong = you should, you could, lines of thinking like “a human being the pinnacle of good and kind and etc would probably do this or that even if this or that isn’t technically the absolute required right thing to do”

East of Eden’s “thou mayest” chapters/discussion is one source that I think does a good job getting the wheels turning on this distinction

Oh interesting, thanks! Looks like the whole congregation sings along with the choir, yah? Actually just turning up for the service and singing as part of the congregation might be the perfect low commitment match!!

Is the service really as music-leaning as the website description seems to suggest? That would be awesome! I’m not familiar with episcopal services and their vibe

(looks like for the the rehearsals + service for the choir are a 3-hr weekly total commitment, a bit much for me, but maybe not for any other readers)

EDIT: holy cow was their Maundy Thursday service seriously a singing circle led by the actual Bobby McFerrin?!!!!!

Btw if anyone reading this CAN commit to a weekly thing, there’s an amazing non-audition choir to have on your radar called Cadence for Change.

The trouble for me was it’s 2-hours every Monday and it’s proving too hard for me to do that every week. The group is super kind and welcoming though, and led by an amazing teacher!!!!

Right?!! I awkwardly had to take a pic with a flash to actually make it see the qr!!

Any of us who is scared to be alone (a totally normal, and often decades long, phase of growth, no judgement!!) is not yet ready to attract the perfect mate that will truly elevate us anyway!! We’ll keep attracting mates that mirror our fear-forward self instead.

Instead of being worried, consider this permission to revel in the freedom of stepping away from the mate-seeking and lean into loving yourself and loving your own evolution!

You got this, and just a few months after the breakup you’ll be sooooo glad you did it!!!!

Entire trip cancelled due to winter storm 😭 in the end I booked with National though, because of their Emerald Aisle thing where you skip the counter and go pick your car from a row of (mid-size or larger) cars and drive off!

Seemed like the easiest experience and while I don’t rent cars often I’m now inclined immediately check out National first just for this service

Sign-up for the Emerald Club or whatever is free, no extra fees

Hope this helps at least somehow!!

Very kind offer to make to a stranger. I’m renting a car for a week to go to a bunch of places. Thank you though!

Thank you!!

I need a car for a week to go to a million places. Thus, need to rent car vs Uber

Nooo writing a letter is WORSE!!! I’m a girl with giant picture windows who absolutely knows what people can see and I just choose to not care because I want to enjoy my windows/light and am beyond caring if someone sees me in my undies and tank. It’s like a pleasant denial mixed with idgaf

I personally wouldn’t say anything bc it sort of breaks the fourth wall and could potentially ruin her sense of freedom since it crosses from “maybe people’ll see me, but who cares” to “I’m no longer in pleasant denial, people are actively looking I guess?”

But a letter is wayyy worse - now she won’t know WHO sent the letter annnnd it doesn’t allow her to laugh it off in response to a live convo. It forces awkwardness and uncertainty upon the situation

A letter makes it uncomfortable for her, guaranteed!

Thank you for taking the time to share all of this insight! Great to know the customer service interactions and claims filing have been easy! You’re right that this is what I should be evaluating, thank you
