I agree with the other person - pride is something that Hrothgar cautions Beowulf against. Excessive pride (also known as hubris in Anglo-Saxon poetry) is not a desirable characteristic that a leader/warrior should have because it will lead them to their demise in the end. This is what happened to Beowulf ultimately - he thought he could defeat the dragon in his old age because of his hubris, and because of it, he died.
When you do a testimonial other people have different opinions and everybody has different evidence towards the testimonial which is based on opinion for what you think.
