My thoughts lately:
Sometimes we all get too big for our britches. That's britches, not bitches. Even though we sometimes become bitches when we need new britches. Which is actually kind of the point of this post.
Don't you hate when you're around people that just think they've got it all going on and they make sure they let everyone know it? Entitlement. Bottom line. (That wasn't an intentional reference to bums there either, it just worked out). I understand some people gain a sense of entitlement throughout life due to past circumstances. Maybe they are self-made successes that came from nothing as a child and feel they deserve everything they have. I honestly get that. But, I still feel like those are actually the people who should be the most humble by how far they've come. Right?
I live daily trying to portray myself as a humble being. I may have a lot to some and nothing by other's standards. In any light, I try to live with peace and gratitude. And I try to never treat anyone with any other mindset differently than I would want to be treated. The Golden Rule really is pretty golden. But, sometimes there are those that just test your limits, ya know? You want so badly for them to realize they are not above you but you are trying to be that example of humbleness yourself and don't want to come across as knowing more than them by mentioning so. See my dilemma?
So, how do we maintain being humble and peaceful beings while teaching others to do the same? This is a question for you, not myself.
