Five Virtues

     Not one person in the world can honestly say they are perfect. Individuals may strive for perfection and may never reach it. It is important for one to acknowledge the mistakes of themselves and continuously work on them to minimize them. Self-awareness is key. If I was  able to set up and follow five virtues they would be:

(1) Tolerance - Make people around you comfortable with who they are and were. Acceptance                                of people.

(2) Sensitivity - Be aware of the people surrounding you and their emotions. Look at life from their perspective. Sensitive people are often more thoughtful, appreciative and loving.

(3) Humility - acknowledge the special talents and traits of those around you. Help your friends, family, and people around you feel special and appreciated.

(4) Ambition - use any opportunity big or small that is presented to you. Have goals and make sure to reach them weather they are being a millionaire business tycoon to being a owner of a small coffee shop. Set your goals and work towards them.

(5) Exploitation - do not use anyone for personal gain. The person can be a friend of sixteen years or an acquaintance met sixteen hours ago. If you are profiting while hurting people around you, do not do it.

     Working on these virtues is important to me. It is quite simple because these concepts have been instilled in me and my sibling since the day we were born. I admit that sometimes I do not follow them. I do break these virtues and realize what I have done seconds after. To me it is important that I was aware of myself being in a wrongful situation and it indirectly affects me. I believe situations like this become a reason for me not to repeat my wrong doings in the future.
