Howdy guys!! How are you? How did your day go? I'm guessing that some of us had a tiring day filled with so many activities or a quiet and peaceful day for rest and the likes. Whichever day you had, I just hope that it was nice and to your liking.

I'm the kind of person that is open to learning and talking to people as long as they don't feel so much pride just because they are teaching me. Not that it matters so much but I just detest pride and I don't like it one bit.

I always wonder why people are proud. I mean the fact that you know how to dance for example should not be a reason why you would allow pride become the order of the day, making it seem like every other person who can't dance is useless or so to speak.

Pride according to the bible goest before a fall. This is a popular saying that we all have heard and say from time to time yet, those who want to be proud are proud still.

Being extremely good at something should be celebrated yes! It is an achievement that is not easy to come by and worthy of praise. It is a common sight in society to see such a person begin to swell and feel super important because they now feel like the world revolves around them. This is simply pride!

We all have to be careful though, to make sure that we shield our heart from pride creeping in cos it is very deadly and can come in at any time especially when out guard is down.

Most people now begin to mistake self worth and pride. They now begin to think that they are not being proud but now know how much value they have and are simply changing their views of themselves and how people should see them too.

While the above mentioned are not wrong, it has to be worthy of note that the line between both is thin hence the need to be careful.

There are people who simply think that everyone who respects themselves abs do not talk so much in public or have certain principles like not eating outside and the likes are very proud.

Knowing how to respect one's self is not pride at all, so we should be careful too how we group people into these categories.

Pride might lead to a person in a bad situation, we should be always humble to other people pride can't help us to lift up in life.

Humility is the way and very important because we do not know where our helpers may come from.

I detest those who are proud just because of what they own which others do not. Surely, the Bible never lie. The pride will be brought down low while He will lift up those who are humble.
