The most important characteristic
Although honesty, intelligence, and a sense of humor are all worthwhile characteristics, I feel the most important one in life to have is sensitivity. A sensitive person is aware if him/herself and the way their actions affect others. A sensitive person knows the place of honesty, intelligence, and a sense of humor.
Honesty is not always the best policy. There is such a thing as a white lie. You do not want to insult someone by saying that their new dress does not fit properly or that you would not live in their new house even if they paid you. You must be sensitive to when it is necessary to tell the truth and when it is better to tell a white lie.
Intelligence is a wonderful thing to have, but not all intelligent people use their intelligence sensitively. You don’t want to the reaction of the people around you. It might be appropriate for you to admit that you have the right answer, but in some cases, you might have to say, “I think this is the answer, but we might want to check it.” A sensitive person would not make someone else look dumb.
A sense of humor is always values. Different people, however laugh at different things. You don’t want to make someone feel uncomfortable by laughing at his/her mistakes. A sensitive person would understand whether a person could be teased or whether a person would appreciate a certain joke.
A sensitive person would make everyone feel comfortable. A sensitive person understands that people are different and that the values of honesty, intelligence and humor can be applied differently.
