Ethics

Definition - the rules of conduct recognized in respect to a particular class of human actions or a particular group, culture, etc.

What it means to me - Ethics are like moral principals. They're a standard that we choose to live by. Ethics are the way we present ourselves and how we should respect others. It's the proper way we should act toward or around others. Without ethics everyone would be rude and self-serving, they would do what is right for them.
