HUMILITY
Quote
" I have been but as a child playing on a sea shore searching and screaming for some prettier pebbles than those of my companions while the unbounded ocean of truth lay
undiscovered before me".
Un Quote
So said the great (Late) Sir Issac Newton
THE MAN Who discovered the Laws Of Gravity through watching an apple fall from a tree in his Garden.
The ONE Whose mind was one of the most remarkable in the History of Human Thought.
The PERSON Whose Discoveries marked the end of one period of mankind and initiated the beginning of another
The GENIUS Whose contribution in Mathematics laid the foundation for the mechanical triumbh that followed.
AND THE HUMAN Who,with advancing age and wisdom,realised in his later years the futility of such Physical Laws against Divine Will and so towards the twilight of his career turned to Biblical Studies and lost interest in all these if indeed He ever had any.
If this is the humility of such a great man like Newton,is it not time, Friends,for commoners like us to pause and realise how naive we are in spending our valuable time and energy in argueing over matters of little significance and in the process expose to others more our ignorense than our knowledge?
It is this humility of such Great Men like Newton that should become the driving force to us all in our day to day dealings in Life.Remember only then we can achieve anything tangible in our life.
