Pride
Pride lures us into making demands upon ourselves or upon
others which cannot be met without perverting or misusing our
God-given instincts. When the satisfaction of our instincts for
sex, security, and society becomes the sole object of our lives,
then pride steps in to justify our excesses.

- Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions, (Step Four) p. 49

Thought to Ponder . . .
Swallowing my pride will not get me drunk.

AA-related 'Alconym'
J A D E  =   Justify, Argue, Defend, or Explain.
