Mine right now are: kind, helpful, thin.

I know the last one is terribly shallow and I should say "healthy" instead. :blush:

Yours?

Kind, generous, wise.

I wish that as a kid, I had seen working on personal growth modeled. I mostly saw people aspiring to economic growth instead.

Kind, patient, healthy.

Those were my thoughts upon reading the thread title.  But I’m thinking it should possibly be ... patient, patient, patient.  🤣

Compassionate

Honest

Knowledgeable

Actually, honest has been one of mine since I was twenty years old and a book I was reading did this exercise.

Wow, you gals all went for the higher virtues! 

 

I really had to think hard about whether I wanted joyous or thin. I only want joyous a tiny bit more than thin.

We love you, @StellaM. image.png.5ea1cf3f6b82688b06029efb333c57b8.png You are very worthwhile! 

My behaviors also do not show a true aspiration to thinness--but I am trying to change that! Hence posting it publicly here. Even if it's not one of the more higher virtues, LOL. 🙂

That's funny.

Sometimes I realise my bar is so low, and this is one of those times.

I aspire to not waking up thinking I am a worthless piece of rubbish 😞 

Though I'd like thin too!

(I did think about thin...but decided that my behaviours did not indicate a true aspiration to thin!)

This makes me sad!   I think you are more than worthwhile.

 I put merciful......because I lean hard toward being unable to forgive which is a real problem.  There is a song in my religion that says ‘mercy is a virtue that we all should cultivate.  It will keep us from resentment and the bitterness of hate..’. It is a beautiful song, but I usually cry through the entire song especially that line.

I didn't read other responses because I didn't want to be persuaded. Now I read.

No, thin is good. I almost put fit, but it was for shallow reasons.

I don’t know you outside of the forum, but let me assure you that you most definitely are NOT a piece of rubbish. That much I am certain about.

Honest

Calm

bored/disengaged/slightly rebellious/perimenopausal/everyone else can jump in a lake - until they can't because I'm a hypocrite and actually care a tiny bit but then I don't

I lack sufficient vocabulary for that last one.  😳
