Moral Virtues

Moral virtues, 

although inherent in every soul, 

do not become apparent
 
unless 

moral actions we perform!

Yes, the key word here is "pretend" dearest, Sandra. But one cannot pretend for ever. Sooner or later he has to act ant then he shows his true colors.! Thank you very much. Hugs xxx

So true Demetrios, we can all speak about moral virtues but it's the actions that speak the loudest. Tom

Great write Demetrios.. Inaction is also an appreciable action for the unbridled youth.. Let morality arise in the minds without compulsion..

Under compulsion, no free will would be possible, therefore no credit gained by the doer! Youth cannot be an excuse in the realm of life. The young are not young when it comes to claiming their rights so they cannot be exempted from their obligations towards society because of their youth! I appreciate your powerful comment my friend, Jenish! Blessings
