Too Much Pride is a Bad Thing

In this blog post I'm going to be writing about pride being portrayed in the story Julius Caesar.  In the story Caesar probably gets killed because of 2 reasons, being too ambitious and having too much pride.  Pride is always a problem in stories like this because it can really get in the way of your goals and plans.  Too much pride is dangerous because people will dis-like you and know that you think way to highly of yourself.  In this story too much pride is being portrayed when the soothsayer tries to warn Caesar about his dark future and he just ignores him and tells him to go away.  That is a big reason why he dies.  Caesar also refuses to listen to his wife Calphurnia when she has dreams about him being killed.  His pride also gets in the way when Artemidorus tries to warn him about the conspirators plans to kill him in a letter form and he just ignores it and asks why his is so important.  This story applies to real life because if you have too much pride in yourself or are "big headed", no one will truly like you and you will end up like Caesar but emotionally.
