The Heart of Humility
I went to the hut of humility
There was no one inside
Waited and waited
Still no one came through
I decided to occupy this space
Now, I am totally at home
Inside the emptiness of being
I am in my house
Made of nothingness
It is an amazing heart of humanity
That searches for humility
Not bothered by the prying eyes of the
egocentric mind
Or the dominating thoughts of humiliation
Humility is the only home
With no windows
Just a bed made of selflessness
No one will come to you
To give you flowers, gifts or awards
For being humble
It is a personal choice
Humility is the highest form of knowledge
(wisdom)
It is not the emptiness of the hut
Nor the absence of spectators
That opens the heart of humility
It is the presence of Light, Truth and
Peace
That guides the heart of humility
