Humility to me is: not thinking less of myself, but simply thinking of myself, less.
Humble: I am not fucking special, but today I am sober and I can help others learn to do/live life differently.

Humility is the attitude of checking if we are the right size in our world. In terms of step 2, we are neither so omnipotent that there is no power greater than us, so invested with power and authority that we can determine how situations should resolve and how people should feel, think and behave, nor so helpless and weak as to be beyond help, so unworthy that we deserve only condemnation. There is a power greater than me, I do need help to return to right thinking and action, and that power is capable of helping me. Not with the help that I think I should have, but of the help I need.
A clear understanding of who we are and what we could be is the key to humility for me. Humbleness is turning that humility outward to look for opportunities to be helpful to others, to recognize the Divine in ourselves and those around us. We are all cut from the same cloth, made of the same atoms that make up the dust of the stars. The higher power comes in many forms but always from the same source.
