we are dealing with humility and how it deals with our happiness.
let me ask you? do you love to be around people with big heads? prideful people are a pain in the ... blessed assurance! and a few other parts of the anatomy!
selfish, self centered people are an irritation. nobody likes to be around them. they wreck relationships. self centered people are never happy. never happy! and because they are unhappy they make everybody else around them unhappy. they spread all their gloom and doom simply by their egotism.
but on the other hand, how many of you like to be around humble people? those that don't think they're so hot? they aren't always trying to impress you. when you tell a story they don't always have to have a better one.
here is the point. when you are humble you get along better with other people and that makes you happy. now humility doesn't mean you think less of yourself, no. it means you just think more about others.
remember this, when you become interested in others you become interesting to others. so you have better relationships when you're a humble person.
just a thought from the front porch…
