Pride has always been one of the seven deadly sins. It's one thing entire to be proud for someone else. But self pride is a dangerous emotion. Internal validation can become a curse. And a proud heart is a different sort of thing than to be satisfied with ones accomplishments.

I guess it depends on how broadly you define it. To me pride can mean different things, from thinking you're the greatest person in the world, to just having a few moments of joy because you finished cleaning your room and did a nice job. IMO anyone who thinks the latter is something you need to apologize to God for has a few screws loose.
