To be Noble is to be a good citizen. Truth and honesty is the most important thing.
Nacho Figueras
Noble in the common French language means being an aristocrat, i.e., descending from an aristocratic family. As you know, aristoi comes from ancient Greek, meaning the best, noble character, and right nature; the French aristocrats did represent, until 1789, the very best of our society, and often they were, especially among the military. However, that social class died from having too many privileges and not following the modern rule of equality under the law.
Now, being “noble” in my eyes means being generous, loving, acting for good, and giving to others. When I was young, I wrote about elevation and behaving in the most elevated way. Human nobility is elevation and dignity.
The noble possess the character to rise above vulgarity in society. When the word Noble is used as an adjective, it is to qualify the moral quality of someone who demonstrates nobility. It is synonymous with worthy, heroic, honorable, chivalrous, courageous, and distinguished. These values are recommended and demanded by ambassadors who are defenders of Noble causes. It is important to internalize that being Noble does not mean being superior to others.
To me, to be noble is to have dignity. No matter what you do. It's all in the doing. To do right by people, give back (even if it's merely a smile to a stranger), and follow your path.
Noble means to be a vulnerable and loving human being. Noble is the awareness that with each meeting and path crossed, we share the human experience. It is the understanding that the wounds of others are also a reflection of my own, including the shadows. To be noble is to prioritize the well-being and happiness of others --- this is my driving force and mission in life."
"To be noble is to be kind, considerate, and to be of service to others. Noble is responsible for making the world safer and healthier for all."
We all feel the time change, going from this huge overgrown commercial market to well-thought purchases. I believe that ‘Less is more’ is the way. Nowadays, I like the idea that I’m not alone in thinking that. It’s not a big secret anymore what incredibly bad circumstances our clothes are made in and how much they are overproduced. With the big overproduction of food, clothes - pretty much everything - and this growing gap between rich and poor on the planet, we can start paying attention to using what we already have produced. At our scale, our free will as a citizen and humans may be empowered by acting on consumption daily.
I think it means standing by your principles, being respectful, and taking pleasure in life.
To be Noble in the 21st century is to be selfless and fearless, willing to take a risk to do something to improve the lives of people everywhere.
