5 Pagan Virtues

There are 5 virtues we strive to live by:
•Unconditional Love
•Unconditional Compassion
•Unconditional Respect
•Unconditional Forgiveness
•Unconditional Gratitude

In the real world, these are often difficult to imagine, let alone accomplish. They are goals towards which we reach. We choose to reach further then we know we can and willingly risk becoming more than we are right now.

Great kid, but she's got a temper from hell and comes by it honestly from both sides.

But she sometimes struggles with the respect and especially the forgiveness. How do I remind her, without being insulting. We share the same beliefs, not religion, but I'm not sure how to approach this from her perspective. She is the pagan, and I respect her choice. Are these well known virtues for all pagans?
