What
do you consider your most overrated virtue? Not sure what my virtues are.
Felicia, 36

Patience, I think. Sometimes you can get
more done if you're not so patient. Or maybe I should say you can get others moving faster
if you're not so patient.
Judy, 62

Tolerance.

Height. It isn't even a freakin' virtue. I
drank my milk, big deal. "Yeah, that Alias...he's a strange guy, but man can he reach
the top shelf! Finally, someone the kids can look up to..."
Alias Irrelevante
Patience, probably. Or forgiveness.

As far as people putting too much stock into
one particular virtue, I don't really see that. I certainly don't do that with other
people and I don't see people doing that with me.

The patience that everyone seems to assume
that I have since I have an 8 year old. Bwah! I get upset all the time.

My most overrated virtue is my honesty. so I
am told.
Brad, 21

A great many people refuse to believe that I
have moods of great and monumental ill humor. They are extremely naive.

I was
taught that the four cardinal virtues are: prudence, justice, fortitde and temperance.
Prudence - practical reason in discerning good in every cirumstance to choose the right
means of achieving it. Justice- contant will to give due to God and neighbor. Fortitude -
firmness in difficulties and constancy in the pursuit of good. Temperance - moderation in
the attraction of pleasures and balance in the use of created goods. (Catechism of
the Catholic Church, 1805 - 1809)
These all seem like desirable traits to
have, so I don't think any of them are overrated.

My generosity. Oh, I'm generous with money
alright but not time.

Silver Spring, MD USA
I do not know what my virtues are,
consequently, I can not judge what my most over rated virtues are...although I sort of can
relate to Alias's answer about height, seeing as some people consider me
tall...6'3.5...although I do not considerall anything below 6'6 (the height of Dr. J) to
be tall...but whatever.
Luki, 31

Hmm, I don't think I have one, but if I did,
it would be my penchant for doing favors for others. While I do like to make other people
happy, I usually do it in the name of preserving relationships in case I need a favor done
for myself in the future. Aren't I awful?

I'm sorry to say that I have few virtues
that are still talked about, so I doubt if any is overrated.

Patience! All of us lose it at some point.
