True Humility, True Forgiveness

Some people think humility means thinking of yourself as lowly and inferior, but that's not right.

Evangelical Christian author Rick Warren attempts to correct this misperception with the famous saying, “True humility is not thinking less of yourself; it is thinking of yourself less.”

But that's not really it either.

True humility is the realization that the very thing you've come to think of as your "self" is an entirely illusory construct.
