Virtues: Virtues gained by following the ways of my ancestors. Some call it "9 noble virtues", Courage is having the bravery to do what is right at all times. Truth is the willingness to be honest and say what one knows to be true and right. Honor is the feeling of inner value and worth from which one knows that one is noble of being, and the desire to show respect for this quality when it is found in the world. Fidelity is the will to be loyal to one's Gods and Goddesses, to one's Folk, and to one's self without restriction. Discipline is the willingness to be hard with one's self first, and then if need be with others, in order that greater purposes can be achieved. Hospitality is the willingness to share what one has with one's fellows, especially when they are far from home. Industriousness is the willingness to work hard---always striving for efficiency---as a joyous activity in and of itself. Self-reliance is the spirit of independence which is achieved not only for the individual, but also for the family, clan, tribe, and nation. Perseverance is the spirit of stick-to-it-iveness that can always bring one back from defeat or failure---each time we fail, we recognize failure for what it is and, if the purpose is true and good, we persever until success is won.
Vices: hopefully overcome by the virtues listed above..
Occupation: horticulturist/manager at chain of garden centers in Chicagoland area
