Hi X,

I hope all is well.. I was directed to your thread a day or two ago, so I started to read it.. I was particulary taken by this statement, since I have thought about this for a long time.. Thank you for bringing it up.. A good topic...

"My oldest daughter and I were talking in the car about what makes a good person. And so we began to discuss the qualities we each decided a good person would have."

Kindingence ranks first.. (For the cookbook types that head for a dictionary, I doubt if you find it, but interestingly it got by the SI spellchecker..hmm) It is my own word, (I thought until the above, I don't know, I don't care )),. based upon "Kind intelligence".. Also including the word "kindred".. VS.. "Killingence".. which I hope the same cb types will understand.. Many examples of each..

The following: has to be always combined with first..

Ranking second is integrity.. especially "self integrity", but all integrity..
Telling the truth to thyself is so hard..Harder than doing it to thee..

And thirdly, I might add is objectivity, remove thyself "from the box" so you are able to view thyself..

I have trouble with them all.. Once I can overcome this, I will have wisdom, I am not there yet,, but I am working on it..

Take care..
