Analyze/Doing everything to remain who we are, so as not to become a counterfeit version of what we truly are, is what we must do in a world where moral principles are challenged by counter-values which have in some way become norms, in societies where certain significantly unfortunate realities remind us that choosing to be virtuous, is not an end in itself. It is a choice that requires additional efforts to remain what we are, in order to avoid falling into the dark side of an existence also filled with very attractive propositions located at the antipodes of a norm which would not want to be confused with the counter values that some people have chosen to adopt, in order to bring as many people as possible to show less consideration towards the true dispositions to do good, which imply firm commitments to be renewed on a daily basis, in a world where appearances are sometimes disguises that hide the true intentions of those who have chosen to adopt as way of life, actions that cause crises in society.
The crisis of values has created confusion in people's minds. What is bad is justified by an incalculable number of reasons motivated in part by the lure of gain or the frantic search for the satisfaction of a set of interests, by employing all possible shady means because, as those who adopt these confusing choices believe, only the end justifies the means. In other words, when the objective sought and achieved is “satisfactory”, the means used to achieve this goal do not matter. However, a society cannot evolve properly by advancing at the pace of insidious trends whose the only real objective is to make the living conditions of the lower classes of society even more precarious, particularly in geographical contexts where development processes are hampered by a wide range of ills whose impact on the daily lives of populations is catastrophic.
This is not about judging anyone; it is about showing that real change depends on the commitment of each individual in any project that contributes to the well-being of the greatest number. Indeed, when somebody has freely made the choice to do this or that, the true goal sought must be the satisfaction of the subject, his loved ones, as well as the society in which he lives. Choosing to do what is morally right, promotes a fulfilling life which is a source of inspiration for others, who through models of virtue, find the means to free themselves from a set of social calamities that do not promote a truly fulfilling life. Indeed, when Men finds himself a slave to his pernicious choices because of the unhappiness that this engenders in his life, and the society in which he lives, we can no longer speak of a truly fulfilling life, in our societies particularly influenced by aberrant behaviours such as corruption, armed robbery, and depravity of morals among others, which involve providing additional efforts which clearly express our choice to say no to these tempting and veiled proposals, which have heavily impacted the development process of African countries in particular, where some people feel obliged to indulge in what they do not want, because they believe they have no choice, while it is not the case. Indeed, as Nelson Mandela's philosophy on personal responsibility and the power of decision illustrates, "in life, we always have a choice, to love or hate, to assume or flee, to confess or lie, to be oneself or to pretend." We even add to be virtuous or not to be, because that is what it is about.
Human beings are free to be or become what they want. Faced with multiple proposals, Men has the freedom to say yes or no, and to assume his choices, because he is always called upon to show responsibility, without being constrained by anyone, when it comes to validly defending his right to remain what he is; that is to say, a virtuous Men always concerned with doing good, because his own happiness or his reason for being on earth, which is also that of many others, depends on this responsible and reasonable act which emanates from a free choice to do good, in season and out of season; that is to say, even in the face of pressure from the insidious tendencies of a world where we must show firmness, in order not to become the resigned victim of a group of individuals who adopt all possible means to bring Men to adopt not only what he doesn't want, but which above all does not fit with the moral force which leads Men to do what is good for him as a person, and for others, as a member of a society which has rules.
So we always have a choice. This certainty is even more significant when we are aware that our happiness or our raison d’être on earth, does not depend primarily on others, but on ourselves, who have made the choice to preach by example, by adopting choices which imply that we remain firm in our choices, in a set of contexts where the followers of excess and countermeasures in particular, continually seek to impose very attractive pseudo values, which they present as solutions to all evils, when it is simply a hoax at the root of the crisis of values that we observe in a world where Mens continually seek solutions to their problems, to the point of settling for anything; that is to say, what they know is bad, but which they still choose to do, letting themselves be comforted by the fact that many people do like them, and that they are not the only ones. There lies the difference between a virtuous Men, and another one who is not. He who is aware of doing what is wrong but who does it, while identifying himself with others to console oneself, is not to be confused with the one who knows that what he is doing is good, and who does not necessarily need to be praise to continue what he has to do, or what he has made the free choice to do.

The implementation of counter-values are insidious acts consolidated by individuals who promote mafia systems and the law of silence, which have their share of responsibility in the persistence of insidious choices which are at the origin of the fact that some Men have lost the sense of good, because they have made the choice to adopt counter-values that ultimately doesn't actually bring them anything good, because good must contribute internally to a well-being which translates the love we have for what we do, because we do not only take pleasure in doing it, but also in sharing it with a world that thirsts for true models, whose willingness to continually do what is good, are means of resistance to copy, in order to avoid being corrupted by counter-values which continually harm the existence of all living beings.
The purpose of everything a person does should contribute to his happiness, which is his reason for being on earth as a virtuous person. Good does not need other reasons for satisfaction. It is good because it is good, and that is all. The act must have a long-term impact in order to positively impact a society threatened by counter-values. The effects of a virtuous life always have positive impacts in all aspects of human existence. It is therefore not a question of doing human trafficking and laundering the money from this macabre activity into legitimate activities, and then doing charitable work to support the poorest. Children who have been sexually abused and sold as merchandise are victims of a choice that causes the unhappiness of some and the semblance of happiness of a group of individuals who think they are doing the right thing, when in fact, this is not the case, because within the formal framework of the law, no one has the right of life or death over another. The same goes for those who are forced into prostitution to buy back a freedom trapped in the vicious circles of pimping.
If everyone were content to do well not only what they have to do, but especially what they have freely chosen to do for the good of their loved ones in particular, and society in general, without being forced by anyone, society would be more better. The followers of counter-values and excess are real public safety problems which threaten the daily existence of a group of Mens who nevertheless find reasons for satisfaction and hope, through those who have chosen to persevere in goodness despite everything. Virtuous Mens, through their actions, must continue to stand against counter-values which are at the origin of the multiple evils that undermine societies which are constantly oppressed or very influenced and threatened, by the recurring assaults of the followers of counter-values whose objectives are to spread as much as possible the links of discord and excess which harm social coexistence, while handicapping or further undermining the development process of many countries which can still count on the determination of a minority to continue to have a positive impact on societies threatened by crisis-causing acts that must be condemned with the greatest firmness, for the greater good of future generations who must have as models, true models of virtue, so as not to plunge the world into chaos.
