Humble

Humble

What does it mean to be humble?
To be humble, don't exactly mean to
be poor. It means not to be proud.

To be Humble is - not to be pretentious.
To be humble is - to give without being
asked. To be humble is - to help without 
being told.

To be humble is - to be caring, with or 
without money. Even if we have money - 
someone will always have more then us.

Being humble - means having a caring
heart and soul. Be humble for one day
and see how your life will change...
