PRIDE
-"considered the original and most serious of the seven
deadly sins, and the source of the others. It is identified
as a desire to be more important or attractive than others,
failing to acknowledge the good work of others, and excessive
love of self (especially holding self out of proper position toward God)."
from wikipedia.
excessive love of self, in short, being
selfish. It's because you never care what
others would feel. you only care for
your own. Believing that you are right and they
are wrong. You would only see their faults. thinking
that you are the only one whose hurt. that you are
the victim and they are the suspects.
these sin is very common,
at work, school, anywhere.
I know for myself that it is, indeed a sin.
but i use this sin as a defense mechanism.
especially when I'm hurt. It's for me to avoid
someone to hurt me some more.
If you got no pride, you'll be eaten by their pride.
that's why you'll be force to increase your pride
higher than theirs. I consider it a "compulsory sin"
in order to survive a world full of pride.
can you imagine, what if pride doesn't exist?
i think the world would be a much much better place
to live.
