Here - here's another way of explaining it.

"Values", are what you "store in memory". They're things like "thou shalt not murder".

"Morality", is how you apply those values.

Morality, is how you personally, select from among your set of values, "which ones" to apply, in any given situation.

See? "Morality", is a process. It's an "active choice".

"Values", are static. They're the "total collection of everything you have to choose from", when you're making a moral choice.

Make sense?
