Humility seems to be very much out of fashion in the world today. Many political and business leaders, influencers, and their minions, reject being humble as a profound weakness. Instead, they think they know everything worth knowing and can accomplish anything they want, and if they can’t it isn’t worth doing. And it’s not just ‘those people’, it can sometimes be ‘us’ as well.
Yet humility, not knowing, not assuming, can lead us to openness to what is new and understanding what we don’t know, and what our limitations are. We will explore how humility as a virtue can be a support to inner peace and a gateway to gratitude. We will also celebrate the changing of the seasons, as the Summer Solstice will have occurred on Friday evening, June 20.
