Traits

We all have traits within our soul that make who we are till old. 
I explored each one and came up 10 that makes me want to shout AMEN!

Strength is at top of the list, its shows confidence and taking risks.
Sincerity comes in number two, you'll comfort me when I'm blue.
Honesty at three, well that's a given.  Nobody want to live in liar heaven.
Humor is the key for life, its gets you through any strife.
Humbleness is sweet and endearing, too much ego keeps you searing.
Honor is my favorite one, for it keeps you grounded when you've won.
Trust is a slippery slope, but with it it will give you hope. 
Respect should really be at the top, nevertheless its what makes you rock. 
Loyalty lies deep within, brought to the surface its a beautiful violin.
Kindness lays with your heart. Its shows on your face, like fine art.

IF all these traits come together, your close to perfect , no stormy weather. 

These building blocks you can attain, i own them all, they keep me sane.
