Speaking of humility! Wow! Just think about how much better this world would be if all of us humbly told the truth, even when it is hard.
When people are virtuous and govern themselves, there is no need for external government, right? As Thomas Jefferson said, "If men were angels, there would be no need for government." That would be cool :)!

I also came across this article about relationships.  Ouch.  This humility stuff can be painful!
"Oh, Is That What You Meant?"

(Oh, wait.  It's humbling.)

EXCERPT: "Many people fail to understand one another because they are more interested in being right than in discovering their companion’s feelings and developing a stronger relationship. So in their conversations they spend a great deal of time trying to convince their spouse that their point of view is correct. They don’t stop to see the world from the other’s perspective.

"This attitude often shows up as couples work out the seemingly small matters of their life together.

For example, one husband is in the habit of leaving his socks on the floor. His mother always picked up after the members of her family as a way of serving them. His wife, on the other hand, expects her husband to clean up after himself. She finds his attitude demeaning. After a heated argument, the wife gives in. The immediate problem is solved; they have established a way to keep the house clean. But the real issues—the wife’s wanting to feel important and respected as a person, and the husband’s desire to have a wife who shows her love through service—have not been mentioned. Neither grows in understanding of the other, and the real problem remains."

See the article for the exciting resolution :)...
