humility  is  not  ability,  it  is  a  buried  treasure

not  a  talent,  but  a  manifestation  of  love,  flowing  through  man

Why the Shadow Departed

Have you ever stood still—
noticing the sudden absence
of what once followed you everywhere?

We think we know the reason.
We stitch guesses into tidy shapes,
as if they could fill the hollow
left behind.
But truth is slippery—
most times,
we can’t hold it at all.

We are meant to lift each other,
not pile stones in the way
of someone else’s climb.

So—
gentleness can outlast

New Sonnet 4 'Unlike a Spurgeon, I by dull words unfold'

Unlike a Spurgeon, I by dull words unfold
The limits of my Sarah's love for me,
But I realize that the rot and stink and mold
Are all within my mind, beneath my See.
There is no other person who can love
For me.  It is my duty and my joy.
It is the Truth that True Love is made

When Virtues Wait

The life you walk now sighs beneath your feet—
a path once clear now tastes bittersweet.
Even as you carry grace like gold,
judgment greets you, distant and cold.

Kindness speaks, but you hush her voice,
as if warmth is now the weaker choice.
Respect once danced at your command,
but now she trembles, bare and banned.

You wear pride like a tailored

Humility is to apologize although it's rejected
Showing respect although you're disrespected 
Being humble isn't something most practice in daily life
Most people focus on who was wrong and who was right 
Humility is the hardest quality of character to apply
Imagine being honest with a person who constantly lie
Humility can be shown if assisted by the quality

King Kane you've done it again

Ah King Kane.. you’ve done it again

Heavenly humility hums on a simply higher plane..

Angelic ability strums..curious necks studious crane

Classical charms forever waver but won’t wistfully wane

Professorial textbook tutorials..clever rhapsodies of restrain

Classy but never brassy..balletic lullabies of lyrical refrain

Dizzying dedication..insane..education.. epiphanies explain how to train

Eureka seeker...aurora explorer..yielded iconic pedagogic logic..

Willow wielded wonders sprinkled with sparkle…

Heroic champagne

Premium MemberHumility Road


There is a road travelled by just a few
It's a beautiful road, but it's not new

Many of us refuse to take this 'high road'
It often requires carrying a heavy load

Even though it is assessable night and day,
This road never gives anyone a freeway

We cannot travel this road with pride;
And selfishness too, must be set aside

A Call For Humility

I don't think about Tr*** often
I don't like to

My guess is a third of you
are at this time   
ticked
triggered
troubled
torn
turned off
or
tickled

Avery few feel that
tripled in spades

And the rest have buckled up
in a mingled mess of 
confusion
curiosity
or careless concern

Take your pick

Only the most humble
learn their lessons anyway,
and earn a table
at the hearts of the yearning

We're

Pedagogical Veracity

Socrates to Plato
Emerson to Thoreau

When the student is ready, the teacher will appear
Invaluable lessons will be on display for him to feel, see, and hear

Ali to Larry
Jordan to Kobe

If the student is willing, he will do the valiant work
He would rather not be the teacher; instead, he aims to show his worth

Picasso to Warhol

On humility

Defeat and failure grow people sad, 
Neither cultivating humble instead
Humble, the core elements of humility 
With self-restraint and obeying the reality

The pros and cons of oneself accepted 
As well as other people's interests recognized 
Humility contributing harmony to a community
While arrogance bringing in animosity

I have once been in a hierarchical situation 
Where is full of

CRUELTY

I've been in a city
In this city
They won't let you grow 
Even when it's your time to flow
They're always against your glow
Steadily wanna make you slow 
Always wanna keep you low.

People ride against good
Then protect wrongs
Feeling stronger 
By hurting another 
Laughing and bullying 
Taking advantage 
Whosoever is simple and live with humility.

The less privilege

What Does the Lord Require

The prophet, Micah, was inspired to pen
three righteous goals which are good for all men.
Three kinds of behavior on Jesus' A-list.
with viewpoints He requires must not be missed.

LOVE MERCY, first one that Micah mentions
much-more-involved than mere good intentions.
To love our brothers like we love ourselves
means what we might like, we put on the shelves
to do
