    Yes!!!! That is getting to the essence of existentialism.Is it honorable to comprimise ones ideals for the survival of oneself or ones family?Are our ideals malleable?

    Honor is the lack of hypocrisy in a personal code of being.

      Lack of hypocrisy is definitely important in the definition.
      But when I close my eyes and think of an honorable person, I also think of a person that allows themselves to have a calling in life. This person is not trite.

        pleanty of people are trite. triteness and lack of originality have nothing to do with whether or not one is honorable. If ones code of honor has to do with being trite, then one remains honorable, if ones code of honor has to do with being dishonorable one is honorable.
        honor is the vacuum of hypocrisy.
