I’d like to see people embrace humility.

A lot of people are walking through life as if they are the superstar at the heart of everyone’s big movie. It’s all about them. You need to shut up — because only my opinion matters. I am always right. You are always wrong. Pay attention to me because I am a very important person.

Allow me to recommend learning to read Shakespeare. Shakespeare had a keen insight into the dark side of human nature. If you read Shakespeare with the understanding that you, too, are Macbeth . . .

But come to think of it, humility is not exactly happiness inducing. As they say, “the truth hurts.”
