pride does come before a fall, when it turns to ego, is what trips you over
There is absolutely zero nothing wrong with a self pat on the back, to be grateful that you achieved something worthwhile or helped something or someone, in some way. Humility, being humble, is a great way to follow the acknowledgement of that proud feeling.
I’m not gonna write a lecture on this. I think if you got this far, you get it. Unless you don’t care, have a bad attitude or otherwise don’t get it, of course.
Either way, I wish you well, on your path in life.
