Pride is a problem.
I’m talking about the kind of Pride that keeps us from being honest with ourselves and others, because as adults we don’t want to admit we don’t know.
I’m talking about the kind of Pride that we no longer allow ourselves to be influenced by our spouse or other significant relationships.
I’m talking about the kind of Pride that says our way of thinking is supreme and out ranks all others.
Because of our relationship Pride … we will never apologize for the past shattered by both our hands. By the words we carelessly threw around.
Because of our Pride … we will never accept that we still feel something for each other.
Because of Pride … we will never have another start because we will not reach out, say sorry, or be truthful to our heart.
Because of Pride … we will not ask for help and this will be the end of us. The end of honesty, of bravery, of something real and amazing.
Sharing our relationship challenges can feel like a very personal thing. We get embarrassed to open up about something that is so closely linked with our emotions.
Many of us grew up thinking that asking for help is somehow shameful or just something you shouldn’t do.
But when pride is present, intimacy is absent. We can be full of pride or we can have healthy marriage and relationships, but we cannot have both.
