Humbleness

While not a comfortable feeling, the feeling of being humbled is healthy. It reminds us that we are human, that we are limited, and that we can learn if we give ourselves a chance. It doesn’t matter what it is that we are humbled by as long as it is truthful, worthwhile, perhaps virtuous.

Do not being fooled by false humbleness or being tricked by things not worthy of being humbled. Be humbled when it is warranted. You will know this. It grows through passion, an honest desire to do better and to realize when there are those that are capable. Don’t have idles.

There is no easy way to be humbled other than putting yourself in difficult situations, making yourself vulnerable and accepting that your best is maybe not good enough. These things are reminders that we are living and that we have a lot to learn if we choose to listen, to try. To put down our facades and face the truth that we might not be able, that we might not understand.

To learn is uncomfortable. To live is difficult. To admit is embarrassing. Do these things and watch how far you can go.
