maybe....

I wonder if maybe sometimes when people seem to be snobs or have a huge ego, it's a cover for their for their fear of not being good enough. I think that the proof is in what a person quitely accomplishes. Self-confidence can be a gentle, subtle thing.
I think maybe your on the right track. We all have heard that expression of people lifting themselves up by putting others down,  I think that applies here.

Excellent post.

 

I would suspect the good doctor (and those who have studied both psychology and sociology) would agree.  The happiest, nicest people I know are confident w/o being arrogant. They are role model for others who seek peace and contentment in their lives.
