about the need.
The virtue of humility is essential to come to understand the truth about ourselves. The arrogance of autonomy is the deceitful antagonist of our souls as it falsely convinces us of a confidence we should not have. Enter Humbled - an unpretentious endeavor in itself, crafted to underscore our desperate need for this humbling experience.
