in what passage i'm sorry but i don't see anything there.

at nineteen years old, nicole c. kear's biggest concern is choosing a major--until she walks into a doctor's office in midtown manhattan and gets a life-changing diagnosis. she is going blind, courtesy of an eye disease called retinitis pigmentosa, and has only a decade or so before lights out. instead of making preparations as the doctor suggests, kear decides to carpe diem and make the most of the vision she has left. she joins circus school, tears through boyfriends, travels the world, and through all these hi-jinks, she keeps her vision loss a secret.

when kear becomes a mother, just a few years shy of her vision's expiration date, she amends her carpe diem strategy, giving up recklessness in order to relish every moment with her kids. her secret, though, is harder to surrender - and as her vision deteriorates, harder to keep hidden. as her world grows blurred, one thing becomes clear: no matter how hard she fights, she won't win the battle against blindness. but if she comes clean with her secret, and comes to terms with the loss, she can still win her happy ending

answer :

the idiom "pride goes before a fall" means that being too proud causes one to make mistakes that eventually lead to failure or downfall.

in the stranger's story in the "the storyteller," bertha had won three medals for obedience, punctuality and good manners. she was really proud of her medals and pinned them to her dress and wore them everywhere she went so that everyone would know how good she was. in the end, these symbols of her excessive pride cost her her life. when she was hiding from the wolf in the bushes, it was the clinking of her medals that alerted his attention towards her presence and lead to her death.
