Pride & Ego..
These 2 words are often used interchangeably.
However, the differences between these 2 words are far off from what many thinks.
Ego is usually directed to oneself and ones’ feeling against another.
Often, one would say a person has a huge ego, which is actually implying that that person has a superiority complex.
Having a big ego would refuse the person the humility to bow down to anyone, even as far enough to deny the person to say a simple word of apology, “sorry”.
Pride on the other hand, comes from the satisfactory of a work being done from someone or oneself.
Which is why the word “pride” can usually be used on oneself onto another.
e.g. My son is my pride
Many a times, we hear someone say “I have my pride”, honestly what they are really saying is “I have my ego which I refuse to let go because I do not wish to hurt myself”.
Because with all honesty, who would cause harm to themselves’ right?
We need to learn to let go of our ego and build on our pride on ourselves and onto others..
