From life we have been learning from before we learned to crawl, <br />The thing we refer to as pride not easily understood <br />A little pride is necessary but too much pride not good <br />A truly humble person is one you don't often meetThe self opinionated and self conceited never known to be rare <br />Those who promote their egos in the bigger World out there <br />From the seeds of a big ego success is often grown <br />A humble quiet achiever is one I have not known <br />A little pride is necessary and self esteem okay <br />But too much pride can lead to arrogance and that seems sad to say.<br /><br />Jarrod Wakefield<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/do-not-go-gentle-into-that-good-night-2/
