Humility

I took this from my friends blog, after a few days of uncharacteristic lack of responsibility this was nice to read.

Reminds me of this: (i wish you success even if you wish me the opposite)

Humility

Often times, we forget to talk about humility but we usually never forget about ego, our own ego, protecting it and defending it. We often times fail to nurture our own humility or even let it grow on its own.

Humility is good and healthy. It is truly more holistic than a holistic diet. It is like a protection shield that helps you defend your joy. But it comes with risking your ego. I pondered over it today and so I wanted to share my thoughts on it.

Attitude is good, self respect is also good but knowing how and when to exercise humility is just plain and simply awesome!!!

After a while, I realized that I wanted to know more of it and so I of course googled and youtubed it!

Found this beautiful Wikipedia entry on it and also this youtube video by Omega Institute that speaks to me and fills me with light ;) you know what I mean.



and updated my FB status to this: humility is when you know that you are in no way better than the other person and that even if in this moment you are, you don't know in future you may not be a better but may be worse than the person you are judging and comparing to yourself. this is a lesson learned...and now exercised and shared.
