Virtue always sounds a bit too big for us.
Like it belongs to people with statues.
The old meaning is plainer.
Being good at being a person.
The Stoics split it into four.
Wisdom. Justice. Courage. Self-control.
We use all four most mornings.
A pause before we reply.
The last slice split evenly.
The awkward thing said kindly.
An app closed before the scrolling starts.
Too small for a statue.
The right size for a morning.
