Self-Esteem with Humility
Our focus this week — Oct 29-Nov 4: “Humility”
Today’s MotD: Self-Esteem with Humility. A healthy dose of self-esteem with a healthy dose of humility is what we’re encouraged to strive for in our lifetime. To be able to feel good about ourselves and what we’ve accomplished all the while maintaining humility is a worthy goal.
In this case, I’m reminded of the Serenity Prayer:
Traditional Version: God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change (humility). The courage to change the things I can (self-esteem). And the wisdom to know the difference.
Another Version: May I find serenity in accepting what I cannot change, self-esteem in acting where my choices have power, and humility in clearly recognizing the difference.
How about you ? Are you able to maintain your self esteem while also being humble ? Do you let being humble adversely affect your self-esteem ? Are you able to recognize when you need to take action and when you need to let things be ?
BTW…Here’s the before…the front and back view of today’s puzzle piece and the pretty ceramic box that holds all my numbers from which I randomly choose each day’s puzzle piece number:

ABOUT THE 2025 Mandalas of the Day
Throughout the year, I’ll be building one large (48”x48”) Tibetan-styled Mandala one piece at a time…one puzzle piece at a time, that is. The mandala design and the reversed puzzle side were printed on artist-quality watercolor paper. The forward facing puzzle side was printed on a 48”x48” wood panel.
Each day, at random, I’ll be painting in watercolors one of the 365 watercolor puzzle pieces, that by the end of the year will become Archangel Mandala #4. Read more about the Archangel Series. The word/message for each piece will be inspired by Melody Beattie’s book “52 Weeks of Conscious Contact”.
Ultimately, the message of this mandala is about how we are all uniquely part of the one.
