Humility
Thomas Merton wrote, "A humble man can do great things with an uncommon perfection because he is no longer concerned about incidentals, like his own interests and his own reputation, and therfore he no longer needs to waste his efforts in defending them." If he were writing these days, I am sure he would have included women in his quote. When we are busy with our own needs, it is often easy to overlook that there is a whole world which can use our help. We can't change everything but we can give the world community the tiniest nudge in a better direction.
