that thing called PRIDE

i’ve come across this quote from a friend’s friendster profile… “when you point your fingers at someone, three fingers are pointing back at you.”

we all can’t help it. when something goes wrong, it’s always our instinct to look for a person to take all the blame. and more often than not, we find everyone around us at fault but never ourselves. we’re just too proud to admit we’ve made a terrible mistake. we’re too afraid to wound our own P R I D E .

we oftentimes find ourselves grumbling and whining the way a child does when he doesn’t get his candies or toys. when given what we need, we don’t even appreciate and begin asking for more. we just look pass through some things in our lives in search of some larger ones that caught our fancy. appreciation is a seemingly unreachable state for some of us. when we have what we want, we start craving for more. and when we have more, we take all means to have everything.

    Hello…I tried to leave a comment to your lower post but it would not allow me to….sooo…I took another road.

    In relationships…everything we do is a risk.
    We open our hearts and soul to a trust that we never even believe for one second will break…how good is that feeling…it is a high even the finest drug cannot duplicate.
    The downside is the break of that trust and the feeling of devastation and humiliation not to mention the deception we are left feeling.

    Is it worth it…anyone that has ever had the pleasure will tell you, hell yes!!

    It is all about reaching out and moving forward…there is no guarantee in life no matter what road we choose.
    It is however all about chance and hope!
    Awesome blog!
    I am adding you to my favorites!

    ~D~
