VIRTUES OF THE WEEKPatience: is quiet hope and trust, expecting things to turn out all right. Patience is being calm and tolerant when difficult things happen. It means showing acceptance when you or others make mistakes. Patience is doing something now so that later it will bear fruit, like planting a seed and waiting for it to grow. Patience is a commitment to the future.

Cleanliness: is washing often, keeping your body clean and wearing clean clothes. Cleanliness in you mind is concentrating your thoughts on things that are good for you. You can “clean up your act” by deciding to change when you have done something you aren’t proud of or have made a mistake. Staying clean also means keeping your body free of harmful drugs.
