WALK HUMBLY

Ian and I attended the retirement function last night of a very dear friend and colleague.This man had so much to be proud of in life as he had achieved so many different things in his specialised field and travelled all over the world promoting events and giving lectures.Everyone loves him deeply.I suppose you could say, what is so endearing is the fact that he cares deeply about people and just wants to make a difference for good, but in a most unassuming way.I've been blessed to witness his complete humility.He was quite overwhelmed by the number of people who he said "gave up a valuable evening just to wish him well".His thank you speech was very moving, as he continually did everything he could to divert the limelight from himself and praised his family, colleagues and friends for their assistance to him over the years.
Last night, I learnt the meaning of the phrase-

"Walk humbly".
