humility is a sign of strength. No one wants to admit they were wrong. Admitting mistakes shows one is willing to embarrass themselves.
This is the same thing as how changing your mind is a sign of intellegence. People think that once you have an opinion, you should never change it, even if other people have a better argument. But that's just stubborness.

If it's developed and used with an attitude of Loving Kindness, it can be one of the most powerful of states. There is no way it's a weakness!!! the strongest people I've ever met are those with the best developed sense of humility. It's something that I hope to develop as I get older and wiser.
Love and Light,

Depends on the perceptions of the individual. According to my perception, it's not, but rather a sign of great strength, due to the fact that it relies on a mind that is calm and an even concept of their own strengths and weaknesses... i.e. a calm, balanced mind. To achieve such a mind can take years to develop, therefore I find "humility" to be a sign of great wisdom and strength.

Quite the opposite. Boasting, pride, self-promotion....those are all signs of weakness. Humility is beautiful.

Humility is the strength that comes from knowing your true weakness.

No: The truly Strong are the Believers of Jesus Christ.
They will tell of their Strength comes from God;
The Proud will not admit they need anyone(Free Spirit)
They sing or say," I did it My Way" Didn"t Need a Savior

Humility is a sign of strength.
It is far more difficult to be humble than it is to be bellicose.

Its easier to pretend we have no faults than to admit we do.So the strength would be in the humility to admit our faults and deal with them than to hide our true selves

No, it is acceptance of who we are and acknowledging God as our master. On the other hand, Pride is the original sin, thinking that we can do what ever we want instead of listening to God.
Jesus (God-incarnate) came to earth as a humble, poor man in order to set an example for how we should live and honor God.

On the contrary, it is a sign of deep strength, and far superior to pride in my experience.
