We are humble when we have enough sincere, mature love for our own selves that we do not need to pretend to be something we’re not; when we are able, even eager, to learn from the instruction and example of others so as to make of ourselves better human beings; when we are able to look back squarely at our mistakes and, by admitting our faults, learn how not to repeat them. We are humble when we are content to be ourselves: right here, right now.
