Day 33 -- Hod of Hod: Humility in Humility

Everyone has humility and modesty in their hearts, the question is the measure and manner in which one consciously feels it. 

Am I afraid to be too humble? 

Do I mask and protect my modesty with aggressive behavior? 

Humility must also be examined for its genuineness. Is my humility humble? 

Or is it yet another expression of arrogance? Do I take too much pride in my humility? Do I flaunt it? Is it self-serving? 
Is my humility part of a crusade or is it genuine?

Exercise for the day: Be humble just for its own sake.
