Fidelity

Fidelity is an interesting word, with several meanings.  Defined as faithfulness to one's duties; accuracy, or exact correspondence to some given quality or fact; loyalty, especially to one's spouse; the degree to which a system accurately reproduces an input (en.wiktionary.org/wiki/fidelity).  Each meaning sets off a different train of thoughts.  I wish there was more fidelity in the world.  Unfortunately, not everyone values fidelity as much as other things in their life.  Each of us has our own set of values.  Once in a long while, we become lucky and meet someone who shares those same values and brings hope and joy back into our life.
