Pride is an inwardly directed emotion that carries two antithetical meanings. With a negative connotation pride refers to a foolishly and irrationally corrupt sense of one's personal value, status or accomplishments, used synonymously with hubris.
Pride is the opposite of humility and this is what we read in Proverbs 11:2 âWhen pride comes, then comes disgrace, but with humility comes wisdomâ which is why âpatience is better than prideâ (Eccl 7:8).
