Tutu's work explores important values that are hopefully owned and maintained as personal or collective values: have a courage to dream, decide and take steps towards our dreams; have patience in the process, open-minded and sincere in meeting other people; be careful in deciding and taking sides, because there are many things that we don't know behind everything that we see. In carrying out our role in this life, we must not lose our identity. Hopefully, whatever the circumstances, we can have, maintain and share personal values to make our surroundings better.
