I wish I arrived at humility out of love, minutes often I arrive at its doors through the pain of humiliation. My self righteous anger brought me to this moment of the beauty of humility as I cradle my bruised hand after punching a wall. I am a human being that makes mistakes, and the beauty of a spiritual life happens through progress not perfection. I am growing little by little, and slowly breaking the cycle of violence passed from my father, passed to him by his father... I cannot spiritually grow alone and without help. The beauty of humility is that I am not alone, and I am neither the worst or the best. I am human.
