It is good to be taught humility when we are young. If we do not exeperience pain as children, we will cause pain as adults.

About This Quote

When we experience pain in our lives it can cause us to change our ways. If we never exeperience the pain in our lives, we will continue to live the way we do now. Only when we experience the pain of life can we grow and learn what is right and wrong. Humility can be learned when we are young but if it is not experienced when we are young, it will only be learned when we are older. The greatest lesson of all is that humility teaches people to be better people.
