Humility is an easy, universal lesson and we all know of its goodness. However, to carry out the action of humility is a difficult process that requires the lowering of one's self and needs, which is also a difficult task. The difficulty arises because of the pride that manifests in our hearts. At times, pride is a reaffirming emotion in our strengths, but in abundance, it is also our greatest weakness.

The most beautiful people are able to leave pride behind and lower their selves for the service of others. For them, their pride is controlled and kept deep within so that their actions exhibit not arrogance, but self-confidence. This confidence, then, positively attracts the attention of others allowing the individual to be surrounded by good people. 

The conclusion is that only those able to surrender themselves are able to accomplish great achievements. A caterpillar is thin and round and moves by scrunching and straightening itself; it must make itself smaller to make any hint of forward progression. In this way, people must also first make themselves smaller before making themselves bigger.

To a person destined for greatness, bending one's self is an easy task in the larger picture of walking a great path.
