Humility is difficult. Often I’m reminded in the middle of feeling sorry for myself, that the world is in fact, not about me. I’m reminded that my actions, feelings, expressions, words, etc. do have an effect on people. Everyone is bound to have an off day every so often. I just frequently fail to remember that I’m still held accountable for my actions even on an “off day”. I think that sometimes we think we get a get out of jail free card. “I’m PMSing” “I have a headache” “I’m just tired”. Ultimately we’re still responsible for the hurt or anger that we’ve caused. That’s not to say that grace isn’t given. One of the most humane and humble things that we can possibly do is to extend grace to those who don’t seem like they deserve it. Keep giving grace to others and to yourself.
