When you Google the word humility or even look it up in the dictionary the definition is still the same. “ Humility: a modest or low view of one’s importance; humbleness”. The power of humility in the world around us is very strong. We may doubt ourselves and appreciate the good in us but no good ever comes from bragging about who you are.
