(175 words) Life values - this is what is most important for a person. Unfortunately, some are willing to sacrifice them for the benefit.
The author tells us about Trifon Petrovich, who rented a room from Polikarpovna for the summer. The man was so disinterested that he repaired the porch of his grandmother, and in the city he spoke with kind words about their village. After that, the residents had no end to the guests, and they began to raise prices. One of the neighbors went to the old woman and persuaded her to rent the room more expensive to a new person, and to evict Trifon Petrovich. Polikarpovna thought for a moment, but agreed - but at first she was so lamented at the lack of selflessness in people.
This act reminded me of the words of the hero in the story of A.P. Chekhov's "Gooseberry". Ivan Ivanovich said: “There is no happiness, and if life makes sense, then it is not in happiness, but in“ doing good ”. And this is his life value. No wonder he chose the profession of a veterinarian to help animals.
Thus, not everyone is faithful to their guidelines to the end, sometimes they are outweighed by false values. But there are those people who are willing to work patiently to bring their ideals to life.
Example from the literature: The hero of M. Bulgakov’s novel “The Master and Margarita,” Yeshua, heals the headache of Pontius Pilate, a judge who wants to sentence him to death. But for the philosopher, the main thing is to bring good to people. And, in spite of everything, he remains true to his values and beliefs.
Life example: My parents told me from childhood that I should set priorities in life in order to behave consistently and honestly. I remembered this, and one day, seeing my friend being rude to his grandmother, he went up and pulled him. Of course, he got angry and stopped talking to me. But then, when he grew up and matured, we began to be friends again, and a friend thanked me very much for the fact that I taught him an important lesson then.
Example from the movie: The hero of the film “Burnt by the Sun” by N. S. Mikhalkov had clear attitudes to life: despite an unjust arrest and many trials at home, he remained a patriot. When he was sent to the war as part of the penal battalion, one could say, certain death, because the fines were sent to the most hopeless operations, he put all his efforts into protecting the homeland by faith and truth.
