Shira is a SPARROW,

She is the Tiny Virtue Hero of MODESTY

Shira, the sparrow, is the Tiny Virtue Hero of MODESTY. At the end of Mary’s life on earth a holy woman named Mara was a friend to her. Shira, the simple sparrow, admired the modesty of both Mara and Mary. Mary didn’t want to talk much about herself. She found her joy in talking about Jesus.  The way Mary never drew attention to herself, helped both Mara and Shira to gain virtue strength in modesty themselves. Mary lived modestly in how she looked, dressed, spoke, or acted.

Shira’s Virtue Power: MODESTY is an “It’s not about me,” selflessness.
