About 2 weeks ago at soccer I was the goalkeeper at the starting line up 10min through i got swapped after making a good save I never thought it was people were telling me and then i got subbed i was angry because i thought i did enough to stay in for atleast the 1st half.
and he didnt save a save i thought i could have but i never thought of the situation like you can do it but it might not go when you want it so it was wrong of me.
Then on bus some guy was coughing and saying **** like a smart as he also said i sucked and he was beta so i said i did a good save and i think i did better.
But fuynny thing is i never was angry at the otehr keeper i was just angry at people saying stuff and the coach for subbing me so quicly and at the people annoying me i never thought im big or anything.
Im not a Smart *** person i think practically everything i do i can do better then i do.
And sometime i might say "I could beat you in this video game" As a joke not serious
Is this the sin of pride?

Look, if you are stuck trying to figure out what sins to confess, just ask the Holy Spirit to show you. He will. Pride, although a sin, is not a mortal sin. It CAN lead to anger, which will then lead to worse things, like fighting and even murder, but the human thing that you are talking about is just a human thing, and not a mortal sin. If you come to a deeper understanding of how our words and actions affect those around us and how we can better the world by bettering ourselves, then you are on the right track.

Allow Christ to be the gardener. He loves pulling weeds and tending such things as this. So, like I said, ask for the guidance of the Holy Spirit. I do. It really works.

Maybe.

Humility is the virtue which acknowledges that all we have and all we accomplish is God's work not ours.

The opposite of humility is the sin of pride. Pride in yourself is undue self-esteem or self-love, which seeks attention and honor and sets oneself in competition with God.

Pride in things like your heritage, your nation, and your children are just being thankful for gifts from God. These are not the sin of pride.

With love in Christ.

I don't think the Pope has anything to do with it. The devil may.
