Humility

I like this. Sounds like where I want to be.

"Humility is perpetual quietness of heart. It is to have no trouble. It is never to be fretted or vexed, or irritable, to wonder at nothing that is done to me, to feel nothing that is done against me. It is to be at rest when nobody praises me, and when I am blamed or despised. It is to have a blessed home in myself where I can go in and shut the door and kneel to my Father in secret and be at peace, as in a deep sea of calmness, when all around and about is seeming trouble."

Not sure the author...

good quote where did it come from?

I think the idea of doing nice things without notifying another human about having done something nice for someone is a way to find some humility too...

God does not promise hapiness, but he does promise peace. You will attain peace Tara-just keep on the right track. Happiness is fleeting-peace is eternal.
