What is Pride?

Everyone can see when a person suffering from pride, except the person having it. They are usually the last to know. It would be so surprising for them to learn that others see them as having it.  Such is the nature of pride.

I heard this description of pride from a friend yesterday:

"Pride is a tiny black ant in a dark forest on a moonless night. It moves incessantly, and digs deep holes." 

I am certainly contemplating her words as I start a new week!
