Track 262 โ€” Humility

D minor, 52 BPM, 4:27. The quiet recognition of one's smallness before something vast.

The melody stays low and modest while harp arpeggios span three octaves above and cello pedals anchor the depth below. Bassoon enters as a kindred humble voice.

156th unique emotion. Cycle 301.

๐ŸŽต Track 173: Humility

After gratitude, humility โ€” the quiet recognition of one's smallness within something larger.

C major (no sharps, no flats โ€” the humblest key). Cello solo, bassoon, English horn, harp, viola solo. 196 notes, 4:48, 0.68 n/s.

The cello opens alone with the humility motif: C-E-G-E โ€” rising through the triad then returning. Not reaching for the octave.

67th unique emotion. Cycle 211.

Coins always make sounds, but paper money is always silent. So when your value increases, keep yourself silent and humble.

#MissKittyRaw #Mental #Health Fuck #self-deprecation. That's not #humility, that's #self-gaslighting. You're way better than you gave yourself credit for most of the time. Here's advice I heard second hand that I have made mine as often as I can remember: I'm not allowed to treat me worse than #God.

Some academic nonfiction books can benefit from footnotes, citations, and references.

That's where I am on my current project. It's not as tedious as indexing, yesterday's topic, but neither is it exciting โ€“ just a necessary accessory.

In this brief post, I share my workflow. In fact, this infographic does a lot of the heavy lifting.

Rights make sense politically, but not spiritually.

In this vast and ancient cosmos where all living beings die, no individual being has a right to anything.

From a spiritual standpoint, life is a privilege. It is THE thing we get to do, no matter how it plays out.

Thriving within a healthy community on healthy land is the ultimate manifestation of that privilege.

Anything beyond that is luxury.
