pride. It comes in many forms; I think the most common must be arrogant pride. A cocky attitude…you know the athlete showboating after a big win. There can be spiritual pride. Social pride, academic pride, vocational pride, you name it I think pride is a huge struggle for us.
I think that personally my lack of vulnerability is fueled by pride. I struggle sharing the intimacies of my life with people (clearly if I’m posting on a blog but refuse to tell anyone close to me about it) what am I hiding? Nothing, I think it’s more a fear of judgment. Is my pride holding up an image I want to project? I don’t know if I even have an image I’m trying to project…maybe I’m just a private person?? Or am I proud the way I’m perceived, or proud of the fact that people don’t think I have struggles?
p.s. humility is not for losers
