~ Humility is the solid foundation of all the virtues. ~Confucius
Written in Early Spring:
I heard a thousand blended notes
While in a grove I sate reclined,
In that sweet mood when pleasant thoughts
Bring sad thoughts to the mind.
To her fair works did Nature link
The human soul that through me ran;
And much it grieved my heart to think
What Man has made of Man. ~ William Wordsworth

~When pride comes, then comes disgrace, but with humility comes wisdom.~ Proverbs 11:2
~For whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and whoever humbles himself will be exalted.~ Matthew 23:12
Humility!
Have I the abilityTo see desires of those
Who need, from me, humility
Where once I stood and froze
It would be God given
A change of self and stance
From being cold and inward
To one who wants to dance
With anyone I come across
Samaritan to all
Available to be the sort
Who's ready for the call.

These and a lot others tell and advise us how we can benefit if we become humble. But, the truth is, most us find it difficult to be humble...let's just try. It's worth it! Peace!!!
