Humility means understanding that the joys, pains and needs of others are just as important as our own. When we practice humility, we can begin to minimize, laugh at and even set aside our self-importance. We can willingly examine our own faults and acknowledge the strengths of others. When we are humble we are teachable and recognize how much we have been given that is unearned.
Humility makes us aware of our personal limitations and the limitations of the human condition. We can acknowledge that there is so much we do not yet know. Having a humble heart opens us to increasing growth and love.
