The Gift of Humility
The act of receiving a gift from another requires recognition of our
dependence on those around us. Yet it can be difficult for us to live in
a space where we're confronted with the notion of giving up control.
"From the air we breathe, to the body we each inhabit, we are living a
profound gift, and yet, we can struggle to see and relate to life as a
gift," writes Colette Lafia, a San Francisco-based spiritual director,
workshop leader, and writer. In this article from gratefulness.org,
Lafia examines how we can bring more gratitude into our lives by
accepting humility as a component of our humanness, and offers a
practice to cultivate greater togetherness.
