I am now 37 years old.I have seen many ups and down in my life.Now when I go back to the memory lane I understand that the UPs were for being modest and the DOWNs were for being egoistic.But the thing is that I can not relive those moments again but one thing I can do;learning the lesson I can change myself and I have started doing that.Egoism is a big obstacle in the way of our life It is so powerful that it can even families.I remember a piece of writing it goes like this...... There are a billion people in China. It's not easy to be an individual in a crowd of more than a billion people. Think of it. More than a BILLION people. That means even if you're a one-in-a-million type of guy, there are still a thousand guys exactly like you. ..........what are we?now this question should not make us think inferior of ourselves.
Humility does not mean thinking less of yourself than of other people, nor does it mean having a low opinion of your own gifts. It means freedom from thinking about yourself at all. Wash out your ego every once in a while, as Modesty is the gentle art of enhancing your charm by pretending not to be aware of it. cleanliness is next to godliness not just inbody but in humility as well.
Modesty is the lowest of the virtues, and is a confession of the deficiency it indicates. He who undervalues himself is justly overvalued by others.There are two kinds of egotists: Those who admit it, and the rest of us. ~Laurence J. Peter. hahaha.......so it was a big lecture on modesty,humility and ego........I thank the modern technologies which enable us at least to share our views .If at all it is unread ,still I have the satisfaction that I could pen it down.Let peace prevail everywhere........
