This part rings so true to me as I reflect about those that I look up to and hold dear as well. People who are humble never draw attention to themselves. This seems counterintuitive in the natural mans view because it would seem wise to inform others about our strengths and accomplishments. For that very reason, those who posses humility stand out and are impressive.

The first person to come to mind is my younger brother. He is tall, slim, athletic, very intelligent, musically gifted, hard worker, stellar student, and has a strong testimony of the gospel of Jesus Christ. He has every reason to brag and show off and let people know how great he is. However, he does just the opposite and shows complete humility, curiosity in others, and empathy with all his friends and acquaintances. For this reason, people are drawn to him. I love spending time with him and always leave wanting to be a better person.
