Grounded In Humility Poem by Qiniso Mogale

Not overwhelmed by success
Not overexcited because of success
Their egos are not inflated by success
They have not developed swollen heads
Their success has not made them proud
They have not allowed success go to their head
They are grounded in humility.



They remember that life is short
They remember the importance of respect
They respect all people regardless of status
They respect the law of gravity
They realize that as much as they are powerful today tomorrow is not guaranteed
So they remain grounded.

They are not arrogant
They are not self important
They are not uncouth
They are not haughty
They are grounded in humility
They are grounded in humility.
