We may hold our position and people may turn humble before us, apologise, concede, give in etc. though we really (only we know) were the one that was more at fault. For example we did do something wrong but we argue strongly and everyone backs down, and so because of pride we end up "winning".
Really though, that win is a loss. Before our own Being and in relation to our essence we lost!
We strengthened Pride, sided with falseness, kicked humility, fairness and justice (all the same thing) in the guts and "won", but to what counts more at the end of the day is the essence and that is what we with pride, always lose to - our poor essence.
So it is not wrong to tell ourselves: "I am tired of hurting my own essence, I want to change and die in pride to make the essence in me brighter, healthier and happier!".
End (2775).
Such a fine observable line between using force to create a boundary out of necessity and using force falsely in the hands of pride
