Years ago, I watched the Miss America pageant. As usual, the last part of the contest was an interview with the five finalists. Each contestant had to choose a word to explain from a large board. I remember the word Miss Arkansas chose. It was so important I wrote it down — humility. She described it this way, “… Humility is the key to success. Though it is very obvious to others, it is invisible to those who possess it.”

In this article, because it is so important to living in harmony with others, I’d like to make a few comments about humility.
