Pride comes before the downfall, duh…

Courtney,

All this pride to be black, white, brown, American, whatever, just let it go. You didn’t put any work to be the color you are, or the country you were born, it just happened. You can love who you are or where you are from, outside of being prideful. I’m not certain pride is ever a valuable trait but loving all people of all kinds and being able to agree to disagree will get you much farther than coming to the conclusion that you are better than the next person. We all fall short somewhere and if you can’t see that, it’s a good chance it’s your own pride that’s blinding you…..
