The Principle of Attribution in action

How I have applied the Principle of Attribution to the things I write and the stuff I post online:

ON ALL PRINTED MEDIA
Example, see words in purple:

"The world is not divided into good guys and Death Eaters. There is good and evil in all of us; it is the part we choose to act upon that makes the difference." -- or something to this effect. I quote Sirius Black, played by Gary Oldman, in the movie Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix.

I observe that, most of the time, J.K. Rowling has a "show, don't tell" attitude in writing her stories; she does not get all preachy about her characters' ethics, morals, etc. Rather, she presents her characters as-is and as they are in parallel to real-world people. Thus we are left to judge her characters for ourselves.

This is pretty much how I analyze the daily news: the daily reports the facts, makes little comment and thus leaves readers to make their own conclusions. [Image: Warner Bros.. Sirius Black quote: J.K. Rowling; Michael Goldenberg]

I don't know much, but I know I must do these things:

1) Meet the needs and desires of my friends
2) Don't belittle people, but find ways to uplift them
3) Solve people's problems, walk into their lives; don't condemn them and leave them to dirt
4) Save people from danger
5) Support medical work to build a safer world, and use natural remedies more often
6) Explore my sexuality and be aware of its potential. Encourage everyone to do the same.
7) Rejoice when people are happy doing things that they love and that aren't harmful or damaging
8) Let children learn lots and lots of things, and teach them to be kind, sweet, gentle and honest
9) Don't hurt or harm people in any way, unless you have to stop them hurting or harming other people
10) Use tact, sweetness and logic in solving conflicts and disputes
11) Be thoughtful, kind and considerate; let love go around and come around. Don't make people hate life.
12) I have loads to learn from others, so I must be humble, teachable and patient. Arrogance and an exuberant ego ain't love.
13) Listen to and follow advice that is meant to sustain you and provide for your own good
14) There is pain and suffering in this world, because we do loads of foolish things, do not love each other enough, do not love the planet enough
15) Science has the answers, but we wield it stupidly. We should be more careful.
16) Sustain life, don't snuff it
17) Work hard, run the economy and take care of the environment so that love and sex can persist

...and last but not least...

18) I have a Maker (a Creator) and I'm here for a purpose: to meet someone else's needs. Each person has this sort of purpose.
19) I'm looking for the true 'God', and
20) I am a sexual being, and so is everyone else, girl and boy.
