Dear Diary,
Last night I reaffirmed a believe in my life. It's about pride. I
have always believe that pride is only useful in your life when you
really need it. Pride by far has never been much use except towards
one's ego. In one's life, one should never take pride too highly,
cause the price to pay for such pirority is normally too much. A
long time ago, I met a few like that, and they lost a lot of
chances in life because of such pride. One was my counselle, I'm
glad I managed to make her realise that with a simple
sentence.
"If you are unable to let your own pride down to love someone, you
will never love that someone enough. Because in the end, it only
shows how much more you love yourself than you will ever love
him."
Though she realise it, it was too late for her. This is one part of
her life that she has to live with regret. She even once told me
that if ever given the chance again, she would choose to put down
her pride and embrace him into her life.
Hindsight is the irony that we always have in our life, and last
night I once again realise that it is always happening around me. A
major contradiction in life, that we grab on to things that are
worth nothing at all in our life only to regret later. With this, I
vow never to make this misunderstanding on pride ever in my life,
it might be the thing that cause my downfall.
