Introduction
As mentioned in the previous post, this post will be
dedicated to describing some more characteristics of the PPP. In particular
this post will concentrate on describing what it is like to have Pride as the
PPP.
Pride as Your PPP
What I would like to achieve with this post is to describe
how one’s psychology is and life is having the pride as the PPP. My hope is
that with this description it will help you to either rule out that your PPP is
pride or either set you on a course to discovering and confirming that your PPP
is pride.
What is it Like to have Pride as a PPP?
If your PPP is pride then the majority of your psychological
processes will be taken up with envy, resentment, offences – giving and
receiving, remembering insults, arguing, mental and verbal protesting, being worried
about being wrong, feeling hurt, being right, fantasies of glory and heroism, fantasies
of being right and loved by everyone, feeling important, feeling devastated by no
one loving you, fear of embarrassment, fear to learn what others think of you,
basically always being hurt and retaliating with responses that express the same
value.
Thinking people are against you and then being against
others and there is always a strong element of friction, opposition, resistance
and conflict in our minds and in our relations with others.
Basically what causes a person much trouble when they pride
as their PPP is relativity, where differences in treatment and being less or
more really upset the person. The person who has pride as their PPP is very
sensitive to relativity. The slightest detail can provoke one’s pride and upset
them.
Conclusion
If a person’s PPP is pride then unfortunately most of their
psychological life will basically be taken up by protesting against relativity
that goes against them (less than others) and feeling exaggeratedly great when
relativity is in their favour (i.e. better or more than others).
End (229).
