Personal Values and Spiritual Beliefs
Values and beliefs are the important aspect of anybody’s life and growth and as human
beings we all have some beliefs, values and attitude that changes overtime. It has significant
impact on understanding, analyzing and decision making capability of an individual. Our friends,
family, experiences and community contribute to these values and beliefs and shape our decision
making capabilities in the future. For me, understanding personal values and spiritual beliefs are
one of the most important aspects of individual’s growth and these open the doorway of self-
respect and respect of others, calmness, kindness, understanding other’s pain, etc. (Glanvill John,

issue but these are driven by anxieties over cost and access to health care coverage and quality of
care.
One of my spiritual beliefs is “Live and Let live” but in healthcare the medicines are first
tested on animals. This action results in increase in sufferings of animals but is important so as to
generate the most effective medicine for man that can reduce sufferings. Furthermore, the quality
of medicines are also improved using the same method and is important for the advancement in
biological and medical knowledge, which is in contrary to my belief as this action results in
harming of animals. Furthermore, another issue that affects the health care policy is the physician
