"Pride gets no pleasure out of having something, only out of having more of it than the next man...It is the comparison that makes you proud: the pleasure of being above the rest. Once the element of competition is gone, pride is gone."
~C.S. Lewis
I find it so easy to fall into comparisons and become prideful. Being content and thankful with what I have has been on my mind a lot lately. I think God's trying to tell me something. :)
