Whoever loves becomes humble. Those who love have, so to speak, pawned a part of their narcissism.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
One may be humble out of pride.
The next time you feel unworthy, inadequate or inferior, remember that these experiences have nothing to do with humbleness, any more than lowering yourself to connect with another individual has to do with humbleness. There are no lower or higher individuals in the perception of a humble person. There are only souls. There is only love.
Being humbled has been a part of my life for a long time.
It's a deep and all but certain truth about narcissistic personalities that to meet them is to love them, but to know them well is to find them unbearable. Confidence quickly curdles into arrogance; smarts turn to smugness, charm turns to smarm.
True humility is expressed in deeds, not words. The humble are those who truly walk the same ground as everyone else - not necessarily with grovelling, hunched backs, but certainly not lording it over others, either.
Humility is always a good thing. It's always a good thing to be humbled by circumstances so you can then come from a sincere place to try to deal with them.
I am not the humblest person in the world. I admit that.
God will have a humble people. Either we can choose to be humble, or we can be compelled to be humble.
Humility is a grace that shines in a high condition but cannot, equally, in a low one because a person in the latter is already, perhaps, too much humbled.
There is a pride, a self-love, in human minds that will seldom be kept so low as to make men and women humbler than they ought to be.
