To be Humble

To be Humble is...

      The willingness to listen, to Open and learn from Something Wiser-- 

 Even to admit that there could be “Something Wiser” is a first step in learning to be humble.

   To hold one's tongue until Spirit has spoken;

    To admit that we don't have all the answers;

   To realize and accept others both as teachers and students

    To know that I sometimes need help to get to the willingness to see myself as I truly am and bring myself more into line with Spirit’s gifts & will for me.

These show a healthy, powerful humility.

     Spirit has engraved on me its image and revealed to me her Beauty.

    Shall I count myself a puny form, when within me “the universe is folded”?
