[tmtranscripts] Abraham 3/28/05

[Pam Sanderson]

Hi Marshall,

         Some one once defined humility for me as "teachable".  I 
understand it better with that
definition.
         This time last year I was quite ill.  In meditation I asked the 
disease what it was that I
was to learn from it.  It gave me three things and one of them was to learn 
humility.   It is the
most difficult concept of the three; I still don't have a good handle on 
humility, but I am learning.
And now I notice it a lot more when the subject comes up!
Pam
