Ignatian values are universal values. They are universal because their essence is for the greater good. First and foremost, the most known Ignatian value is genorosity. Generosity is defined the quality of being kind. It is the willingness to share what one has for someone in need. “Magis� or more demands one to excel in his endeavor. “Cura Personalis� or personal care is directed towards the care of self. The spirit of service, because we can do more, we can serve more. We can change the world and make it better place to live in. Each of us can live his or her place to serve his fellow men.
I’ve learned that Ignatian values denies one’s self and carry his cross. He goes out to the world and serve his fellow man because in doing so he becomes closer to God and exemplies the Ignatian values. All of the Ignatian values are toward the greater good and therefore whatever religion you belong does not alter or contradict your faith. No religion teaches us to be evil and Ignatian values exemplies goodness so therefore they can be interrelated.
The effect of the Ignatian values is that I should practice it. I have realized that I have to integrate the Ignatian values in my daily activities. In doing this, I would become a better person. A person that is not selfish but is directed toward others. In learning the Ignatian values, my eyes were awakened to the reality of things. The reality that we all have short-comings and we should therefore strive to rise above our imperfections. And what better way to do this than to follow the Ignatian values.

In the beginning God created man, and man said "Let there be mayonaisse!" and there was mayonaisse. He looked and he saw that it was good. Not to be undone, woman said "Let there ketchup!" and there was ketchup. She looked and saw that it was good. Later that evening when having roast animal for dinner, they realised fire wasn't invented yet so they used a microwave instead. Adam decided roast animal tasted better with mayo, but Eve assured him that ketchup was better. And that, ladies and gents is how the battle of the sexes began. You heard it here first! Now, were it not for Ellery "Tha Debatanator" Ivaan who's masterful debating skills convinced Adam and Eve that you could actually mix ketchup and mayo, we would not exist today. So in tribute, you better show him some loooove!
