The word for today is…
humility (noun):
: freedom from pride or arrogance : the quality or state of being humble
Source : Merriam -Webster
Etymology : Humility means “the state of being humble.” Both it and humble have their origin in the Latin word humilis, meaning "low." Humble can be used to describe what is ranked low by others, as in "persons of humble origins." People also use the word of themselves and things associated with themselves; if you describe yourself as "but a humble editor" or refer to your home as your "humble abode," you are saying that neither you nor your home is very impressive. Like this latter use of humble, the kind of lowness expressed in the word humility is typically one chosen by oneself.
