Humility

"Humility is a manner, a viewpoint, an all-encompassing thing...Humility is expressed through actions;...it can be demonstrated simply by stopping and listening to someone. It's essence is putting others ahead of yourself.

...A real test of humility is how you handle criticism. The natural reaction is to throw up an immediate defense, a quick excuse, a spontaneous rebuttal. The humble way to handle criticism is to try to understand the reasons for the criticism, to look for what truth there might be in it."

-Mark Hatfield

I have found that one of the hardest things to be honest about is humility. It hurts sometimes.

Thanks for the post.
