need to be humbler, more receptive to advice and feedback, more open to criticism.
need to find these new shoes fitting, learn to walk with them; stumble a little when I learn, and accept that I stumble.
need to be more wary of the things that distract, steal, and destroy; fix my eyes on the higher goal and walk in that direction.
to open my eyes, to love, to serve. to demand less, and give more.
