The framework question: “What do we owe to each other?”, addresses complex questions of human existence. Regardless of the answer, the answer is subjective, tied to one's personal experiences and one's understanding of morality and inequality. However, an individual's response can be further influenced by academic study and helping others in need. Philosophy, theology, and service influence our understanding of the question, “What do we owe one another?” allowing you to explore issues of human morality, experience human connection through theology, and feel sympathy for others. Philosophy, the study of knowledge, reality, and existence, influences the understanding of what we owe to each other by prompting questions about how one should live. In particular, moral ethics, the principles on which one bases one's judgments about right and wrong, most directly influence one's understanding of the framework question. For example, in the Republic, Plato clarifies the nature of justice through associations in the human soul and the social structures of the city. Through pontification, Plato evaluates the ways one should live to have a just and moral life, offering readers guidance for living better. By engaging in the academic study of philosophy such as reading Plato, people gain exposure to different moral philosophies, such as the study of ethics, and learn how one should live according to the concepts of right and wrong. From my personal experience studying nursing ethics, I have learned about the moral philosophy of nursing, why nursing exists, and the ethical responsibilities of a nurse. Starting from the assumption that ethics can be interpreted in a similar way, the study of philosophy must allow some understanding of the moral capabilities and responsibilities of fighting poverty and the resulting educational barriers. . While extremely grateful for all the privileges in my life, it was difficult to realize my good fortune until I worked with RYP adolescents who often do not have two parents, have limited adult influences, and live below the poverty line, making education an afterthought. . From the perspective of a tutor and mentor, the educational support that kids need is indisputable, as are the injustices they face on a daily basis. Through service, you not only gain perspective on the needs of your local community, but also insight into the systemic issues of racism, poverty, crime, education and more. By participating in service and trying to counteract the sources of need of others, you will undoubtedly change your perspective on the framework issue, knowing that at least you should help others.
