Never Forget HUMILITY



Often times we let slip the life lessons we were taught in our kindred days.
The toxicity of this world has made us divert from the teachings were taught in so many ways.
We seem to have forgotten what we learnt now that we are elevated.
We have become unconscious of our conduct now that we are promoted.

We seem to have forgotten humility was our childhood friend.
And now that we have all the power and intelligence we think we are self-made.
Have you forgotten that a prideful heart breeds destruction?
You will be honored and exalted if you only follow humility’s instruction.

Never be mistaken to think she’s there to devalue yourself.
Having humility by your side only improves one’s self.
Spend time with her and breed wisdom you need to succeed.
If you neglect her one day you will be humbled and never succeed.
