This week was very uneventful and I really didn't notice any change in terms of my virtues. Moreover, I feel like my progress has been generally static over the past few weeks, and I want to do something to change this. The most important part of this experiment is progress and change, but I feel like this is missing. Additionally, I am unsure of what I should do in this case, considering the fact that I have tried, but to no avail. If I really dig deeper into the week, I guess I could say that my optimism was at a high point this week, considering the fact that I am looking forward to Thanksgiving (in 14 days). This ties into my optimism because I, for once, have accepted that there is some time between now and then, but I have yet to dwell on this. That is basically all that happened this week, and I am sorry if the previous sentence made absolutely no sense. Thank you for reading.

Hey Lauren. I am sorry to hear that you don't feel like you are practicing on your virtues. What I have realized is that even if you don't know it, your virtues are tested and practiced everyday. Opportunities can stem from school, or home. If you are having trouble finding situations to practice them think about all the things you encounter every day, and apply whenever necessary. If it may not seem evident at the time, you are making progress. I'm happy to hear that you are excited about Thanksgiving, which could be another opportunity to become virtuous. I hope you can see the progress you have made and I wish you the best of luck. -Kendrick Cua
