some thoughts
It would be folly of one to assume
that the truly humble man is weak,
for you know not his personal demons
he has wrestled all of his life
his ego

It is a most formidable foe
unyeileding and strong
relentless and cunning
unrecognized by many
unchallenged by most

Overcome by insight
acknowledgement of a Power
greater than himself
a life void of self
simply service to others

Self second
is where the battle lies
where it begins
where it ends
