“Humility is an attribute that for many is hard to practice. We have pride about who we are or what we have accomplished. We want to tell and show others how important we are. How much better we are than someone else.
The reality is that such feelings are actually a statement of our own insecurity. We are searching for acknowledgment of worth outside of ourselves. Yet doing so separates us from others. It’s like being put in solitary confinement, and it’s a lonely place to be.
It is only when we recognize that, like us, every person has positive and negative attributes, and only when we look at one another as equals, that we can truly connect.
It is that connection of common humanity that frees us to open our heart and care unconditionally. To look at another as an equal.”
