What are my core values? A Quick Game of Self-Discovery Your core Values: Empathy - To Understand and share the feelings of others Humor - To see and appreciate the humorous side of life Equality - To treat others as equal to myself and vice-versa

So @adamdolin.bsky.social created a little thoughtful self-evaluation quiz to ponder your core values.
