Be Humble - Tumblr Posts
Everything will happen at the right time. In divine time.
Keep living in the present. Be patient. Be kind. Be self-sufficient. And be like the sun that keeps on giving:)))
“Philosophy teaches that we should be above pleasure and greed. It teaches that we should love frugality and avoid extravagance. It accustoms us to be modest and to control our tongue. It brings about discipline, order, decorum, and on the whole fitting behavior in action and in habit. If these things are present in a human being, they make him dignified and self-controlled.”
—Musonius Rufus

“Believe in yourself! Have faith in your abilities! Without a humble but reasonable confidence in your own powers you cannot be successful or happy.”
—Norman Vincent Peale
“Humility consists in knowing that in what we call ‘I’ there is no source of energy by which we can rise. Everything, without exception, that is of value in me comes from somewhere other than myself, not as a gift, but as a loan which must be ceaselessly renewed.”
—Simone Weil
“Goodness is the only investment that never fails.”
—Henry David Thoreau
I have to remind myself each morning that it was I. I who stopped growing and let the demons possess my soul, consume my spirit spreading poisonous energy around those I love. It’s down to me to exorcise the demons and ignite the flame. The flame that she once allowed to be her warmth, the flame that matched her glow.
There’s still a shimmer of warmth, I’m not just ash. I prey she feels the ember within and I find the fuel to relight positiveness and be her comfort, her light once more.
