HUMILITY IS KEY
Humility!!
Let us briefly explore the personality of Humility
Truthfully,
Humility as a personality cannot be faked. It is a virtue that comes naturally
from within. Humility is simply the freedom from pride or arrogance. Humility
does not have a mindset that one's opinions and thoughts are better than that
of others. Humility goes hand in hand with selflessness and generosity.
Humility is KEY!
The
word "Humility" was derived from a Latin word, "Humilis"
which means low. Now let's get something clear, the fact that someone is humble
does not mean one has a low self esteem. They are two different things.
"Low" for humility simply means welcoming the opinion of others,
subjecting one's self to corrections, allowing the free flow of what other people
think and utilizing them in becoming a better person. Low self esteem on the
other hand is lack of confidence in one's self.
It
is no news that the opposite of Humility is Pride. We say someone is Humble, We
say someone is Proud. The formers are nouns while the latters are verbs. One
can never subject a proud man to corrections, it's impossible.
Humility
makes sacrifices, Humility makes a Leader wash the feet of his followers,
Humility leaves no room for hatred, Humility is not competitive, Humility is
like life's super glue, it bonds, Humility is Key, Humility is life. The reason
why some people will never succeed in life is the absence of the personality of
Humility in them.
I
once heard of the story of a young man who once stood up for a Man of God that
urgently had to board a particular plane and so someone needed to stand up. The
young man stood up and He prayed for Him. Although the man who prayed for him
is no longer on earth, his prayers are still very active. Today, the young man
who volunteered to stand up out of the many that boarded that plane is ranked
as one of the richest men in Africa. Question: what made him stand up? Humility
is one of them. Humility is Key! Have you come this far? One thing can bring
you down Pride!
Humility
sincerely helps others without expecting anything in return or glorying over
it. What goes around will definitely come around. A humble person believes that
we rise by lifting other but does not intentionally lift others so he can rise,
he just does it because that's him! A proud person never wants to lifts others
above himself, he helps others with the consciousness of subjecting the person
and constantly reminding the person of his place and how he got there through
his help, he always glory over every little thing he does.
Humility
is disguised Wisdom and Pride is disguised Foolishness.
Life
is a network only the Humble are stable, life is a test only the Humble are
Scholars. Life is like a Hill, a mountain top. The proud think they should and
must be the lead and so they try climbing very fast above the others and they
do it alone, forgetting that they may miss a step and fall all the way down without
anyone to grab their hands, and since they know it all, they end up climbing
all over again, ALONE!
...End Note
Humility
in You allows others grab your hands, hold unto you and put you back on track.
Pride is Foolishness, Humility is Wisdom!, Humility is Key!
