I developed my own internal system of values or ethics when I was in high school. I thought it was great. Then I went to University, read Hume, Mill, et al. and realized that my thoughts were not original at all. That didn't make them less relevant, just made me a little disappointed. I spent a disillusioned year or two thinking University was just going to be giving proper names to thoughts I'd already pondered.
