Finding Honor

Honor in a box, honor in a bag,
Honor on a shelf, honor with a tag.
Honor in a store, honor in a name. 
Honor isn't like that; it isn't quite the same.
Honor can't be purchased, but it does come with a price. 
It must be earned; it isn't given like advice.

Honor is received by the diligent and brave.
For the best at heart, true honor is saved.

Are you qualified for honor? Do you have what it takes? 
Are you a hero to your neighbors -although you make mistakes?

That was really nice Andie. What was your inspiration for it?

Umm, well the first stanza came to me as I was falling asleep one night. It just came out of the blue.... But I guess the inspiration was all around me.
