The bible says humility comes before honour and haughty eyes before calamity, thoughts?

I think this is true.

People respect PhD graduates but you have to deal with rude, depressing, controlling, and uncaring professors for 10-12 years to qualify for that honour.

Women get respect when they have big families, but they have to get pregnant, give birth, and change diapers to qualify for that reward of a family full of loving children.

If you are honoured without making sacrifices, you will suffer, according to the bible.

True humility often involves embracing necessary sacrifices for worthwhile pursuits.
