When people have an abundance of knowledge, sometimes it's hard to keep their pride out of the mix. Imparting the wisdom that you've built up over your lifetime to others can make you condescending and rather obnoxious if pride is in the blend. The problem is that when you finally find that out, then everyone who supported you is missing in your life because they can't stand the "me" demeanor.
Believe it or not, it's an addiction! Instead of falling for drinking, drugs, or some other habit, we capitulate or give in to our own failings, believing they are correct. . . . so that MUST make ME correct! The point of enlightenment is when we realize our wrongs and finally understand how they effect people. Basically we stop being critical and start noticing other peoples feelings!!
Prov 18:12 Before a downfall the heart is haughty, but humility comes before honor.
