Being humble

Man should be humble before his elders, for the elders have more experiences and wisdom. A child being humble is clothed with serenity and will gain more from his interaction with his elders. The elders will appreciate the humbleness of the child and the interaction appears more joyous. A humble mind is also open for learning, and truely, we human only understand a fraction of the available human knowledge. While I may understand accounting at a pre-bachelor level, there are more than 100 different degree courses in the university, each offered up to docterate level. Be humble, for truely, we only know a little. At the same time, be confidence, for the little you know is sufficient for your life, as long as you remain humble.
Being humble is also part of order. All of man should be humble before authority, for authority is meant to guide and to help you. A man of authority, being humble, is even more appreciated, for he understands the measure of respect. The more you climb up the social ladder, the more accolades you may receive, though being humble is a measure of virtuous integrity. A man at the peak of his success, being humble, is more able to take good care of his resources to continue his level of success.
