Integrity

in⋅teg⋅ri⋅ty
adherence to moral and ethical principles; soundness of moral character; honesty.


The other day my kids are in the car and this is the conversation going on.

Annie: "Charlie I have intellavision" (that is what she calls super power vision)

Charlie: "No you don't"

Annie: "Yes, I have intellavision, I can see everything"

Charlie: "NO, you don't!"

Mom: "Guys, stop arguing, Charlie leave Annie alone"

Annie: "YES I DO, I HAVE INTELLAVISION!"

Charlie: "Annie, you don't have any INTEGRITY"

Mom: "Charlie what does Integrity mean"

Charlie: "It means you tell the truth and you don't lie and Annie is lying so she doesn't have any integrity"

Really, how do you argue with that! (Charlie learned about integrity at Taekwondo - it is part of the creed they recite every practice)

Taekwondo Creed~
Courtesy
Integrity
Perseverance
Self Control
Indomitable Spirit
