More About Different Thinking Styles

This us just something I would like to add to the blog I posted the
other day about the different ways people think.

I wanted to address two very specific thinking styles that are
extremely opposite, and that just happen to be evident in my family
members. One thought process is Doing Things Because They Are Right.
My brother, AJ, and my dad both posess this thinking style naturally.
The other one is Doing Things Because They Are Beneficial. Now, this
is a kind definition for this thought process that both my mom and I
posess, because it sounds much more moral than it is. But we--and I'm
mostly speaking for myself in this post, though I'm pretty sure my
family would agree with my assessment--both feel the need to do things
that will benefit ourselves, despite their moral standings (within
reason). Being moral is something that I have had to learn through the
grace of God and from my brother and dad.

I felt the need to share this, because it is another great example of
different thinking styles in different people. I think it's
interesting to consider that we don't all think the same way about
morals naturally.

Also, this strengthens the concept for myself that we are saved by
grace alone, because sometimes I jest feel like, since AJ naturally
feels the need to be more kind and generous etc. than I naturally
feel, I'm not good enough. Now, that's not to say I blame all my
problems on my thinking and reasoning styles, because I don't. I have
learned to be a better person, and becoming a Christian has definitely
altered my thinking and reasoning. It's just reassuring that we are
saved by grace.
