The definition of pride varies widely. It is an inward directed emotion that is altogether separate from happiness or joy. It seems that pride has a good side, and a dark side when you approach it from the english language, and I suspect from others as well. I never felt that pride was a negative myself. To me pride was always a positive word for some reason. Growing up I was proud of my family and my home. If I got a good grade at school or did something awesome on the little league field, I was proud of my accomplishments, and it felt good. Then I was surprised to discover that pride is also considered a sin in some religious circles…Apparently that is even what got the devil kicked out of heaven. That creates quite a dichotomy in a young boys mind. I wondered how pride…the act of being proud, could ever be construed as something bad.
