I love how Rick Warren in "The Purpose Driven Life" explained humility. He said, "Humility is not thinking less of yourself, but, thinking of yourself less." This clarifies humility for me. When we focus on something bigger than ourselves and work toward that purpose, our self-esteem grows (through experience and hard work we gain competence) and true humility grows at the same time as we understand that we are not the center of the universe.

Coddiwompling reminds me of the etymology of the word, sauntering -- purposeful and reverent travel on foot through nature to the "Holy Land" -- within ourselves.
