Category: Pride

Pride is not a vice. Pride is not imbalanced. It’s not over reaching. Pride finds no fault, hubris finds no right. It’s when pride turns into deception that it is destructive. Pride is about what is. Hubris is about what you think is, or what you think should be.


“Show class, have pride, and display character. If you do, winning takes care of itself.” Paul Bryant (American football college Coach. 1913-1983)


“Disciplining yourself to do what you know is right and importance, although difficult, is the highroad to pride, self-esteem, and personal satisfaction.” Margaret Thatcher (British Politician and Prime Minister. b.1925)

  • Pride vs Hubris

    Pride vs Hubris

    Pride is not a vice. I always laugh at the ascetics who speak of pride as if it were some great evil, but if you undertake any action with the conviction that it is right, there is an element of pride to it. The idea that your action is right, the idea that you can…

  • Have Pride

    Have Pride

    Doctors are notorious for their ego. I’m not sure what you’d call it, conceit I guess. But when your split second decision makes the difference between life and death, I can see how you almost have to be self centered to live like that? Actually, this is why I say pride isn’t to blame. The…

  • Pride Finds No Fault

    Pride Finds No Fault

    The “no you” idea always sets me off a bit. We are so programmed to be self negating that it seems to be reverse arrogance, false humility. It’s like saying we can’t be involved, or it’s beneath us because there is no us. We are still here. I see you. Who is still here? The…

  • Right to Die

    Right to Die

    People seem to think a lot is a ‘God given right’, and of the craziest things instead of being privileges. It is our God given right to die, want to? In the state I lived in, it’s even legal with the proper paperwork. The death with dignity act. We don’t have a lot of takers.…

  • Fully Awake

    Fully Awake

    Everything that’s going to happen already has, space-time? Yes, but it’s alive. So yes, blood is going to my feet, it is going to my brain too. You can own up to it all, and be whole in space time. Be all of the energy that you are, rather than just cold feet. I would…

  • Views of Pride

    Views of Pride

    Pride is really sort of a controversial topic. We are warned against pride, like we will become our own Mr. Hyde if we take any enjoyment in what we are about, or what we do of our own free will. Yet people also say that there is a problem with people having low self esteem. The popular…

  • Wisdom

    Wisdom

    Wisdom is beyond men. Wisdom is beyond women. In a sense, it’s beyond the world. We are in it. Wisdom can exclude nothing, because it’s all here. If one gets wisdom they can ignore nothing. You can get knowledge and leave much unexplored. You can be proud of knowledge, but wisdom leaves you in awe,…

  • Pride is Not Evil

    Pride is Not Evil

    Pride is not evil. It’s saying I did this, because well, you did. It’s saying I’m here. You did what you did, and you don’t have to disown it. Just remember, it’s what you did. You aren’t what you did, you did it. You are what you are. As opposed to pride in the self?…

  • Hubris

    Hubris

    My liver is so proud, he thinks he is better than my heart. Actually, the body can know hubris.  It’s called cancer. When a new cell is too deviated, when it’s not acknowledging that it’s in the liver, and won’t in any way do the liver thing, then it’s hubris. Cancer cells are still of…

  • I Am That I Am

    I Am That I Am

    Do you wonder if you’re real? I do wonder if I’m real. I’m often impressed with the notion that I am a figment of my own imagination, and when I wake up I might be just an idea someone else had. We are all creatures of consciousness, multi-faceted.  I am that I am. God is truth.…
