Proverbs 21:24

If you are proud and conceited, everyone will say, “You’re a snob!”

Pride can take the shape of self-importance. Yung gusto mong lagi kang bida, nire-recognize, kinikilala. Pride seeks captives. Dahil ang tingin mo lang sa mga tao ay mababa sa iyo. “Kaya ko ang mga yan. Kontrolado ko sila.” Pride does not admit errors and shortcomings. It is hypersensitive. Yung mga taong sobrang manipis, maramdamin at matatampuhin, actually mga proud yun.

We’ve got to be ignorant to be proud. Kasi kung totoong bukas ang ating isip at matalino tayo, matatanggap nating hindi naman talaga tayo importante. Matatanggap nating hindi tayo magaling. Matatanggap natin na lahat ng pinupuri ng mga tao tungkol sa atin ay hindi totoo. Dahil sino nga ba tayo? Yung mga taong nagpapakatotoo at kilala ang kanilang sarili, yun ang humble. Kasi alam nilang they cannot be great by themselves. Yung mga nagtatagumpay sa negosyo o career and therefore yumaman, sumikat at nagkaroon ng kapangyarihan, alam nilang naabot lamang nila yun dahil may nagbigay, may tumulong, may nagbukas ng pinto para sa kanila. Kaya yung mga taong mayayabang ay mga ligaw. Hindi nila kilala kung sino sila. Talino lang ba ang nagbibigay ng tagumpay? May mga taong matatalino pero wala namang nangyari sa kanila. At marami rin namang hindi matalinong tao pero nagtagumpay. Kasi may mga tumulong.

Pride loses. Lahat ng ginagawa ng mga taong proud para magmukha silang victorious at bida, lalo silang bumababa. Kasi wala naman talagang taong nai-in love sa mga proud people. At wala naman talagang taong humahanga sa proud people. Kaya kung ayaw nating maging talunan, iwasan nating maging mayabang.
