In the struggle against your own weakness,
humility is the greatest virtue. Humility
is having an accurate assessment of your own nature and your own place in the
cosmos. Humility is awareness that you
are an underdog in the struggle against your own weakness. Humility is an awareness that your individual
talents alone are inadequate to the tasks that have been assigned to you. Humility reminds you that you are not the
center of the universe, but you serve a larger order.
