Following Humility


I shall not consider myself so wise
that I can call any man ignorant.

I shall not consider myself so learned
that I can't learn one thing from every man.

I shall not consider myself so without sin
that I may cast the first stone.

I shall not consider myself so deserving
that I can wrong another without remorse.

I shall not consider myself so experienced,
that I can resist the most fundamental and basic lessons.

I shall not consider myself so righteous
that I can say I would have done differently in his shoes.

I shall not consider myself so controlled
that I can implement all the above without fail.
