Afzal, It is only through God's help that we can practice humility. I
try to show humility, but sadly, am proud all too often.

pride
Good explanation, I guess I am naive as I am not a person who feels better than most anyone, I just me.

Lilane, It is not wrong to be proud of what you are but it is wrong when you boast about it . Pride necessitates boasting ,hence pride over self or any possessions should be checked .

Pride in moderation

is OK, in fact I think we all need to have pride in ourselves.  When pride becomes conceit then it's a problem. 

Pride is what pushes us to do our best but when it makes us believe we are better than others then it's just plain obnoxious!

pride
I guess I dont get how pride can be wrong, I always say I pride myself on being strong.  Why is that wrong?
