i woke up today and was thinking about meekness and humility. i don't really know why, it was just an idea that was stuck in my head after a long, dreamfilled night.
meak: mild of temper; not easily provoked or orritated; patient under injuries; not vain, or haughty, or resentful; forbearing but submissive; showing patience and humility; gentle.
i'm trying to be meek today, a task that is made more difficult due to the fact that i'm in the office alone. how can one be meek with out other people to see and judge?
well, i'm doing my best to be meek. it says the meek will inheret the earth and that doesn't sound like such a bad thing. i wonder what the meek would do with the earth? there surely wouldn't be any 'war presidents' around.
the rest of the day i will try to be more meek, for what purpose i am not sure. i guess people will be more receptive to me, they will open up more. the meek will inheret the earth may simply mean that those who interact with others meekly will bring about understanding; the meek will be the ones who bridge the gaps that naturally form becuase of historic and cultural differences.
it may pay to be meek. i'm gonna practice in an empty office.
