Honor
This month, we will be learning about Honor. What is honor? The word honor has multiple meanings. Some of them are:
Respect
A feeling of pride or pleasure from being shown respect, or the act of showing respect to someone or something. For example, “It is an honor to meet you.”
Title
A title of respect for a high-ranking official, such as a judge or mayor. For example, “if your Honor please”.
Recognition
A public celebration or recognition of someone or something. For example, “the newlyweds were honored with a dinner given by the bride’s grandmother”.
Privilege
The privilege of being associated with or receiving a favor from a respected person, group, or organization. For example, “I had the honor of serving on the Pulitzer Prize jury.”
Evidence
A symbol or evidence of great respect, such as a title or medal.
Quality
A quality of a person that manifests itself as a code of conduct, including elements such as honesty, compassion, chivalry, and valor.
Do you show honor? What does honor mean to you?
“Honor is doing the right thing, even when no one is watching.” — Unknown
TODAY IN HISTORY
Nearly four decades after he became the first American to orbit the Earth, Senator John Herschel Glenn Jr. is launched into space again as a payload specialist aboard the space shuttle Discovery on October 29, 1998. At 77 years of age, Glenn was the oldest human ever to travel in space. During the nine-day mission, he served as part of a NASA study on health problems associated with aging.
Glenn, a lieutenant colonel in the U.S. Marine Corps, was among the seven men chosen by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) in 1959 to become America’s first astronauts. A decorated pilot, he had flown nearly 150 combat missions during World War II and the Korean War. In 1957, he made the first nonstop supersonic flight across the United States, flying from Los Angeles to New York in three hours and 23 minutes.
