Humility

Humility is the path of happiness. We cannot see ourselves and our relationship to creation in true clarity unless we recognize our dependence upon and interconnectedness with the whole. Divisions between a man and his brothers replace harmony with self-justification and pride, while empathy is stifled by independence. Those who follow Jesus Christ's injunction to become as a little child liberate themselves from the self-concern and an obsession for control that inhibits their freedom to give and receive love.
