Good afternoon/evening Col Burroughs and all my brothers and sisters here on VFV. Pride in self can be a tricky thing. I can be proud of those I lead or those who are in my family or friends that I have, because of the good things they may do, but I take the position of deliberately not being proud of myself, but rather I try to remain humble in whatever I do, because God hates pride that folks have in themselves. I will leave it to the below link to explain why I feel that way. Have a blessed rest of your day today and always.
