As she called to ask for some advice, she posited...’I just love your humbilty.’ Taken off guard I blushingly said ‘thank you’! Then I wondered, where did that come from...did she just read my book - Living a HIP Life, Humble, Intentional, Prepared! Hmmmmm🤔
Once we finished sharing ideas and I was able to give some direction, I came back to thinking about humility, what it meant and how it was manifested!
Humility is about being:
Vulnerable
Transparent
Able to admit our fragility
Able to go inward and self reflect
Being humble then is about being self aware, the American-Webster Dictionary explained it as this “Having or showing a modest or low estimate of one’s own importance, not proud or haughty; not arrogant or assertive..”
When we ‘are,’ we ‘allow!’
When we are welcoming, vulnerable and transparent, we allow others into our ‘space.’ Not defined by status and accolades - we also open ourselves to loving, listening, serving, and supporting!
“Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves,”
Philippians 2:3 NIV
