Humility


Be humble. Phew! This is one lesson we are taught since the moment we gain consciousness about our being. What does actually humble mean? Because to me, the word humble brings an image of a person too terrified and dependant to be an individual and is always timidly hid behind others. Is this what our elders teach us to be? Eh, I don’t think so...
Let us reconsider the definition of humble. Humble is someone who is not bossy but respects everyone according to their ages and has manners and politeness. Sounds good? Moving on…
Why be humble? I have seen people being the boss over GOD whilst praying. I have seen people reprimanding their parents for no mistakes of theirs (consider the movie Baghban). Is it right? Of course not. One must understand the value of being humble. A humble person ultimately gains the respect of others. Don’t feel humble? Consider this. Let us think that all creation is in the palm of god. Billions of people form the planet earth. Hundreds of planets, stars, and other celestial objects form a galaxy, there are millions of galaxies. So we are millions of nanometers smaller than a speck of dust. Feeling small, eh? That’s it! If you understand that you are just a miniscule part in the whole history and universe, you’ll ultimately know what you got to do. Be humble; respect others for that’s the new cool.
P.S. - When you wake up tomorrow morning don’t forget to say a bright ‘Good Morning’ to everyone ^_^
