Terry, of Abbey-Roads2, has a post up which answers my recent question regarding the degrees of humility. When we were talking about it in the combox the other day, I didn’t even know what the third degree of humility was, which I jokingly said I was practising. Well, now I know, and I know them all. Once more, and probably not for the last time, it has been brought home to me that I should be careful what I ask for.

Thank you, Terry. (I think).

Hi – I just discovered you! Beautiful image! I’m just getting ready to post again – with a mention about humility.

Hello, Gabrielle. This is my first visit to your blog, and I know straight away I’ll feel at home here with Our Lady of Perpetual Help as your Patronness. I haven’t had time yet to settle down and read your posts but with Contemplative Haven as the blog title I’m sure I’ll find many interesting topics.

Hi Terry. I actually tried to leave a comment on your post last night, but sometimes with my wireless connection, things don’t go through. Thanks again for enlightening me!

Hello Ann! It’s great to see you here! I was drawn to your blog through kt, and need time to read through it as well. I’m hoping for some of those, “lazy days of summer…”!
