Will Virtue Ever Go Out of Fashion?


Pray that the day never arrives when we no longer value and honor:

  • Honesty
  • Hard work
  • Kindness
  • Courage
  • Fairness
  • Decency
  • Courtesy
  • Wisdom
  • Patriotism
  • Compassion
  • Ambition.
The list could go on, of course, and yet however lengthy, there is a greater risk than we often acknowledge that certain virtues can decline to the point of meaninglessness. Virtues will always wax and wane but there is no guarantee that they are everlasting. They need not all go at once to produce significant harm. The loss of only one can be fatal.

From your lips to God's Ears. I fear that we are on the precipice.

All at a bargain basement price....in fact we can further discount all of them if the price is right! Alternatively, if you cannot look after me on price alone what's in it for me. There are those that see the world and those that just see themselves. Find the good ones and stick together.
