About This Quote

Pride is the enemy of many. Pride keeps us from learning what we need to know and growing as people. Pride often keeps us from asking for help and accepting help when we need it most. These things cause pain and hurt and can be very devastating and tragic. Many people believe that they can’t be hurt or hurt themselves if they don’t know the meaning of those emotions.
