Humble pie is probably our best dessert. I know I have eaten some over my life and I intend to consume some more. I think we develop the ego and pride as defense mechanism to avoid being hurt and then forget to moderate ourselves. We have learned to fight to not appear weak and sometimes take untenable positions because of it.
As I age I welcome it more and more because it's good for me. No matter how smart we think we are it's good medicine.
