Part of the quiz that I had with my Philosophy of Human Person subject is to discuss briefly about what I know about Aristotle's Doctrine of the Mean. Here is my answer:

Aristotle's Doctrine of the Mean simply emphasizes to live life with or in moderation. That one should clearly give love or live life not to the extreme. That persons need to reserve a portion of himself to God. But there is a great question about Aristotle's concept of idea because no one can ever share in moderation especially in loving God, family or friends. That, in this case, we have to rely on the provision of the natural law when we do things. We should do an activity which is in accord to perfect virtue that every human activity is filled with various happiness that defines his absolute being.
