We love all noble and humble people, who are nothing but anyone else, who promote the importance of knowing their own limits through their actions and who do not make an unnecessary fanfare of virtues and goodness.
The nobles flee from false and affected humility, from “I do much better”, from narcissistic pride and from unbridled selfishness. It turns out that the pride of these people with airs of superiority is as unbearable as it is despicable.
- However.
- As we will see below.
- Talking a lot and assuming too much is usually a reflection of a kind of lack.
- Emptiness or dissatisfaction with one’s life itself.
- That is.
- What we normally express with “too much noise and little result”.
“I was walking with my father when he stopped at a bend and after a little silence he asked me:
? Besides birdsong, do you hear anything else?
I heard my ears and a few seconds later I said, “I hear the sound of a car. “He is — he is — he said my father. It’s an empty car.
I asked my father: “How do you know it’s an empty car, if we haven’t seen it yet?” Then my father said:
? It is very easy to know when a car is empty, by noise, the more empty the car is, the more noise it makes.
I became an adult and now, when I see a person talking too much, interrupting everyone’s conversation, being inappropriate or violent, feeling powerful and despising people, I feel like I hear my father’s voice say:?The more empty the cart is, the more noise it makes?.
Humility is about silencing our virtues and allowing others to discover them, no one is more empty than the one who is full of himself.
Complete people are the best because they do not need to compete or be right, nor appear or lie, because what they are manifests in their attitudes, in their moderation and in their knowledge of being.
Humility, therefore, is based on respect for others and kindness, is the depth of sincere gazes, authors of these feelings born of the heart.
But there are people who, unfortunately, are so empty that their cart makes a lot of noise, these kinds of people only show off and brag, do not contemplate the emotional reality of others and need to prove their worth through hollow words and ajar doors.
This dark void is the result of low self-esteem, lack of opportunity and emotional rudeness, so it is always necessary and important to work on our gaps, our needs and our abilities.
However, when we do something very important to us, it is normal and common to be proud, but the pride of effort and purpose achieved with pride and arrogance is far from over.
In this sense, to be humble with our achievements and successes, we must be clear about two premises that form the basis of nobility:
Nothing we can accomplish makes us praiseworthy or superior to others. Only kindness and humility help us rise and support our happiness along the way.
