There's a possible internet first at the foot of this message (a poetry recital by a lion), but first....
Earlier this week I waffled on about Humility and talked about it generally being assumed as being a manner that an individual conveys as opposed to as a feeling that one holds, which is how I see it.
Whilst I used the analogy of the sun and the lion being both arrogant and humble at the same time implicit in this is that humility involves the indvidual's acceptane of their own nature.
You wouldn't expect a lion to behave like a shrew or a meerkat to act like a cobra, so being humble doesn't necessarily imply being "quiet and unassuming", it means acceptane of your role and your current reality.
Acceptance of your nature is important but I oftentthink of the current reality as "the cards that you are holding in your hand at the moment". They are the magic you have at your disposal whether Aces and court cards or fours and fives.
The poem I published about "Lazy Leonine Ways" was in written form, but I thought a poem about leonine behaviour would be voiced better by a lion. So, here is an internet first
