The feeling you get when people smarter, wiser, holier, older, harder working, more accomplished, more worthy, some of whom actually are fathers, call you by an honorific title, is not humility.  It's pride.  No doubt you value the title, but you do not deserve it any more than the protector of abusers deserves the title "saint."  No doubt JPII would be happy the belief that clerics are special and elevated makes you and other priests feel good.
