Humility feels like a thankful-awareness of the present moment. {{Humility is patient because it is neither past nor forward seeking — it is content.}} Accept your present opportunities; the pleasant and the painful, which are both seeking to perfect you. {{Humility adds lessons to our pain and suffering, turning the seemingly senseless into meaning.}} You only have a chance right now, in this moment — but only through humility. **Source:** [[books/Simple Reminders Book (2014-2018)|Simple Reminders]] <!-- bryant-content-generator:end -->
