The Five Virtues

I went for a run on Friday afternoon and as I was going through the field of a local school here in Sea-Tac I noticed this painting on the wall. My first thought was that I was pleased that it hadn't been tagged with graffiti yet. I ran past it and read all of the words on it and then decided to go back and take a picture because something struck me.

In a world so filled with sin and immorality is was nice to see a message that encouraged virtuous behavior. We live in an "MTV / Real World" generation filled with sex, violence, and rude behavior. It is a breath of fresh air to see images around our kids that are more positive.

I posted back in September a picture of a sign I saw on a neighboring school to this one. It said "GUN FREE ZONE." Definately a contrast to this wall mural.

• Caring
• Honesty
• Responsibility
• Respect
  
• Faith

May we all walk through life remembering these virtues.
