The Storm has Faded......
Glad that I reasonably predicted that things were going to return as they were, because they did. We are now around one week away from the Fall Luncheon, and I'm looking forward to that. Anyways, this week I practiced my virtues strongly. This week I went to my ''cousin's'' house(not really but I've known her since I was like three, so we basically just call each other that), and she asked me how school was going, and I remarked that it was going just fine, although there were some bumps on the road along the way. Although I did leave out that high school honestly does rack your brain, a lot. So, honesty was pretty good this week. Prudence wasn't something I actually practiced a lot this week, but I promised myself that from now on I will make it a JOB to make sure I am more careful around certain things. Sometimes I underestimate how important prudence is, to be completely honest with you. As I walked outside, I had my phone held out, and I tripped over the gravel and dropped my phone. It didn't break or anything, but it could've if I didn't have an ''Otter Box'' cover for it. So, moral of the story: no prudence=big trouble. Anyways, I practiced acceptance in a very interesting way today. I accepted that humility is something the world needs more of, because honestly, when many people get the things that they want, or are successful, it's super difficult to not be boastful or egotistical(to an extent), and I understand why you would boast. It's part of human nature. I've done it a few times as well, but for the most part, I think that we should remain humble. That will help us a lot in our future jobs, disregarding whatever colleges we go to to study a certain career. Anyways, I am excited to spend time with family on Thanksgiving break, and to celebrate my birthday two days later on Saturday. G-bye y'all.(P.S. The twelfth blog already?! Wow, time sure flies by fast...)
I am glad that you have made a lot of progress on your virtues; I wish I could say the same for myself. Anyways, In terms of being prudent, I feel as if that virtue just flew over my head, as it is one of the many things that, I feel, I must practice. I totally understand why you say that without it, chaos is inevitable. Also, I 100 percent agree with you that humility is so important. Moreover, I am extremely clumsy, so I fell like this would have a perfect virtue for me to practice... I digress-- happy early birthday and I wish you further progress within the weeks that follow.
