1. What is freedom?
Freedom is not spitting; freedom is not hitting people at will; freedom is not cursing at will; freedom is not infringing on others at will.
Freedom means that a person independently decides his own behavior and bears the corresponding results on the premise of not infringing on the [legitimate rights and interests] of others.
Legitimate rights and interests refer to the rights and interests owned by a person, unit or region that conform to [universal human values], regardless of whether the rights and interests are supported or opposed by [laws and/or customs of a certain space and time].
Second, what is integrity?
Integrity refers to credit in a broad sense. It is a code of conduct for dealing with various social relations. It requires people to deal with various social relations in good faith and actively abide by the principles of universal human values.
Good faith refers to not harming and not seeking to harm the legitimate rights and interests of others, or: to actively safeguard and promote the legitimate rights and interests of others.
3. Integrity is the boundary of freedom
Human nature likes freedom and is always pursuing freedom. Freedom is also the source of human happiness and the source of human innovation. Therefore, freedom is the purpose of human beings, and it is a beautiful purpose for human beings.
Freedom has boundaries, and the boundary of freedom between people is whether to infringe on others [legitimate rights]. Society is an abstract subject, and the free boundary between people is the free boundary between people and society.
However, the essence of honesty is good faith, and it is also a requirement: not to harm or not to seek to harm the legitimate rights and interests of others. Therefore, honesty is the boundary of freedom.
4. Pursue freedom and abide by integrity
When a person is pursuing freedom, once he crosses the border and violates the freedom of others, he will be defended and punished by others, and instead become unfree.
Therefore, we advocate: Pursue freedom and abide by integrity.
Hereby advocate!
The 819 International Integrity Day is hereby advocated! Share with all walks of life!
