Virtues Reflection Card courtesy of The Virtues Project™
Questions for Reflection:
- What are some ways I stand up for what is right?
- Am I reliable in keeping my agreements?
- What have I done recently with excellence?
I'm not kidding when I say the person I am thinking of exemplifies all of these virtues and many more. This person grew up in the housing projects in the Bronx of New York, was diagnosed as diabetic at age 7, gave herself her own insulin shots at age 8 because her mother was afraid to, lost her alcoholic father at age 9, and grew up in poverty, without any role models in higher education or professional careers. Through determination, hard work, self-discipline, purposefully working toward her dream, this woman exemplifies the American Dream.
