Humble

By Jas • April 10, 2015

Humble. To me it means to put your own thoughts, decisions, and priorities after someone else's. Being humble helped me a lot through tough times, I realised that I was simply one of the seven billion people in the world. My problems are pathetic when comparing them to others. There are people starving, homeless, or in poverty. There are cancers to cure, injuries to heal, hearts to mend, mouths to feed. But all I could think of was me. My issues. But stepping back and getting the big picture helped me to realise that there are bigger problems in this world other than mine and I need to stop being selfish and help those people in need. Being humble helped me to help not on myself, being humble helped me help others.
