Pride & Gratefulness

Pride: (unduly) high opinion of oneself; arrogance

Arguably the worst of the classical 7 deadly sins, the hubris of mankind has always been boundless. Mankind (or at least, ME) prides itself on being autonomous, self-created and freestanding. The result? A world with no need of God and no sense of gratitude. This, is probably my greatest fault.
