Living In The Light Of Truth

Martin Seligram "Signature strengths" describes the generally human abilities fall into certain categories:

• Wisdom and knowledge (which include abilities like curiosity, love of learning, judgement, and social intelligence)
• Courage (perseverance and integrity)
• Humanity (capacities for kindness and expression of mercy)
• Justice (ability to bring about fairness and leadership)
• Temperance (qualities like self-control, prudence, humility)
• Transcendence (appreciation of beauty, expression of gratitude, ability to hope, capacity for joy)

We all have capacity for each of these strengths but a few resonate more deeply in us, they are the signature strengths. We can seek good life using our signature strengths but the best life - meaningful life being on mission is when we use our signature strengths in the service of something larger than ourselves.
