RE: My Personal Thoughts - Steem/Tron Saga

in #steem5 years ago (edited)

Hubris is a new word for me. But I see that it is similar to pride which can come before a fall. Children can keep people humble and down to earth as they learn to better converse and teach kids without abusing them. One of the reasons I keep a blog is because I value the ability to review and learn from my past. The past few hours for example, I've been looking at my life in 2010, which was ten years ago. And I'm still trying to unpack that at the moment. Sometimes, it can be overbearing, like too much for me to even look at.

Sort:  

My kids humbled me more than I would have believed possible. I highly recommend parenthood as the best means I know to improve one's grasp of reality.

I also cringe, literally physically cringe, at memories of my past. I think anyone who examines their life carefully does.

Yeah, hubris pretty much is the same as pride.

Parenthood, yes. Also to a lesser degree, camp counseling.
