Pride vs Arrogance

A person who is truly good in his talents will never be arrogant.

I know many musicians who are good, very good in their skills, who are way above average. Yet, they do not boast about their skills, and they are never arrogant about it.

Instead, they are always learning, from their peers, from their respected musicians. The baseline is there is always room for improvement.

Yes, they are proud of their talents. Who will not be proud of the talents given to them, of the standard they have trained so hard for? Yet, their pride do not give way to arrogance. Yes, they do show off, but yet, you do not see a trace of arrogance in their display.

Their pride is acceptance of their skill level, yet always striving for improvement. They are humble in the area they are talented in, always learning, always improving.

Arrogance blocks off an important route - the route to improvement. To think he is good and goes all haughty over the fact, there is no longer any room for improvement simply because he thinks he's the best.

Arrogance is a dangerous character for a human to possess.

Cos of C.N.Y. And I thought he wouldn't be coming back, since he is so busy.
