Humid Humility
Humid Humility is a feeling of humbleness that is deep, overwhelming, and intense. I recently encountered this feeling not in a sermon or a poem, but on the side of Mount Stanley, which is the highest peak of the Rwenzori Mountains in Uganda. I had been planning the ascent for months. I'm an experienced hiker who has climbed big mountains like those in the Alps and Rockies. I had the best equipment, trained hard, and felt extremely confident. I knew the physical effort would be intense, but I was mentally prepared to simply will myself to the top, regardless of conditions. This, I realize now, was modesty, not true humility,

Thoughts
Action in inaction and inaction in action This means an action without a target and without will is an inaction in nature and do take no action when you don't have will and a target is taking an action itself. When you don't have to make a decision don't make one.

The Identifiable Victim Effect:
Most people think their compassion scales with the size of a tragedy. In practice, the opposite shows up again and again. One injured dog will pull more donations than a barn full of starving animals. One missing child will draw more public outrage than a report about hundreds of children living in the same conditions.

Our Frozen Rituals
The cold was like an invitation to adventure, and one we looked forward to, like the fourth of July, anxiously anticipating the first hints of snowfall like fireworks. As Christmas break drew closer, we watched excitedly, as the sky turned the color of old iron. Suggesting that old man winter would soon be slowly and methodically making his way across the corn field graveyards and settling in, as if he was giving us permission to begin.

The Silence Beneath Winter's Trees.
One day in December, I walked beneath the wintering trees and listened to their silent voices. Their bare branches rustled in the moaning winds...the sounds were heavenly - like the whispering of angel's wings into an earthly microphone, inviting us to listen. The yearly ritual of cold and chill had begun, it seemed to murmur happily to the filled and unfilled spaces...

Dead Traditions . Honorable Mention in The Ritual of Winter Challenge.
I tell myself and others it's my favorite time of year. Then the wind snaps; outside the colors fade. Pink blossomed leaves shed their coats. I watch them swirl away with blue feathers joining- lost forever in their dance. Just brown decay; emptiness left in their place. Darker each night gets. Colder. Time for artificial light. There is oil to prime and windows to close.
