3RD MEETING: GUIDE QUESTIONS FOR JOURNAL ENTRY
If you will have one outstanding virtue, what would you want it to be? Why?
My Answer:
If You were To ask me I think It would be my personality of being humble and patient. Maybe because I am really a nice person or maybe because being patient has always been a part of me. Its kinda like a reflection of who you really are and what you are to the eyes of other people. I really find it funny when people try to test this value that I had. Because its always has the same result, when they fail to intimidate me in doing something rude besides being bad is not a part of my true self.
