Blog Prompt 1

 When did you realize there was true injustice (or true virtue) in the world? Tell a story that describes either your first encounter with injustice or a significant one.

Selflessness is helping people in need. True virtue means being morally good.

The first time I realized there was true virtue in the world was when I helped my grandmother clean up her backyard even though i had other priorities i had to do. This was a couple summers back. I was living with my grandmother at the time working at a pizza place in Galt. At this point in my life I just wanted make money. If it didn’t have anything to do with money I wouldn’t want to have any part of it. I was working constantly if I wasn’t at my grandmas and would come home sometimes close to 12 in the morning. On my days off I relaxed and wouldn’t want to do much like many other people would. My grandma being as old as she is, she can’t do much as she wants to. But still does things around the house like cleaning the inside and outside the house. Let me mention theres always family members moving in and out my grandmothers house because she has a good heart and doesn’t mind it. I think this to can be mentioned as a good virtue also. Saying this there are many people that can help her do things inside and out of the household. For example my cousins, aunts, uncles, and even my self. Yeahs they do help out but not as much as one would think. Sometimes just lazy and don’t want to do anything. My self included, although I have a soft spot for people I love more than others like my grandmother because she does so much for me. While I was staying at grandmas I tried doing as much as I can to help her when needed. She wouldint even have to ask me twice. Because most of the things she asked me to help her out in where cleaning outside I would most likely get a little dirty. Even after I just got done taking a shower, getting back from work, getting ready for work, or relaxing on my days off. The love for grandmother always comes into play. Knowing that there were other people living in the same household that instead could have helped her out, but knowing them, I knew they most likely would not have took time out there free time to help her clean the yard.
