I guess humility is a thing of the past

Interesting take at this link about what is true humility:



“‘True humility is not thinking less of yourself; it is thinking of yourself less.’
– C.S. Lewis”

“Our desire to avoid being seen as proud or arrogant has overwhelmed our desire to speak our truths or follow our highest potentials. To avoid the blow to our egos of being seen as proud or arrogant, we sacrifice the most precious callings we have. Our ‘humility’ has, ironically, been turned to the purpose of protecting egos invested primarily in the opinions of other people.”

“In other words, our desire to avoid being seen as egotistical is a profoundly egotistical one.”

“If you want to live humbly, stop worrying about the perceptions of others and focus on what you can find to be independently true and valuable. Consider the wisdom of others but ignore their attempts to manage you through your own ego.”

“Ironically, your single-minded, unilateral choice to act at the risk of being disliked is often the most humble choice you can make.“

Now it seems the models are trending a bit warmer in NC by late next week than originally shown? As you’ve heard me say since I work outdoors depending on the day it has been nice on these warm days but seeing a March snow storm would be good too. If it’s a tough task in January I can only imagine March is even tougher.
