Pride isn’t something that I am overly familiar with. I have self-esteem issues, and the odd time that I do feel proud I almost always experience shame in tandem. I really have nothing to be ashamed of but I have no tolerance for my own small short-comings, and inevitably, I put myself down.

I used to be so proud of my grades, but now I’ve kind of given up caring. I fail the things I don’t know, I pass the things I do. I am no longer the brightest one in the class. I can do well in certain classes, and I look like an idiot in others. I am learning to accept this and work harder at the things that don’t come easily to me.

hmm. proud. well pride is a beautiful thing. in some circumstances. or am I full of shit? anyway. i’ve been thinking a lot about this and it doesn’t seem to work for me — the pride thing, i mean. i don’t know. it’s difficult to be proud when nothing really matters, you know? and how do you say this to people who look at you funny because they think that you lack confidence? that really isn’t my problem… the problem is that i don’t need to shove it in people’s faces. it seems better. what’s the alternative? make myself feel important by having people recognise me? does it matter in the END?

I am proud to be on the drumline, but not really proud to be an american when compared to other countries like germany in the educational system, because my teacher said that in german schools there are no multiple choice just essay questions on everything. I think it really shows how lazy our teachers are here.

A mother and father at the sight of their new child. The reaction you feel at becoming officially independent. A rare, but exhilarating feeling.
Charmi
it was clear he was never proud of his investments; in the time he spent on his family and his job. None of these things gave him the same pleasure he got from choking.
emily
It is good to be proud – so long as it is of the right things. Pride gives one a feeling fulfillment and joy at having done or believing in good things. The opposite of pride is shame, which is clearly a negative feeling.
wvracer
The proud. The few, the marry marchers making risks everyday. The proud. The brave, the gallant souls who always take the blame. Take pride in what they call you, be it insult or injury name. The proud will mark your soul with flame and blind the taint away.
Tom
Pride is a dangerous thing.
These were the words running through his mind as he stared down at the corpses piled around the battlefield.
Pride ruined everything. His innocence. His childhood. And the lives of the hundreds of men scattered, broken, beaten down, lying in the dust at his feet.
Abba
god resists the proud; man is in awe of him; he fills with fear, he waits only to fall.
Proud Mary keeps on turnin’… Da dut doot doot dooh..da dut doot doot doot duh..
Allison
proud of my friend and my family. Proud to be an american where at least i know i’m free. Proud of Sammi for doing what she want’sto do and reaching out to grasp the goals she has been striving for. PRoud of Jackie for finishing school and working hard. NOT proud of myself.
Megan
feeling confident in your own skin no matter what anyone says to you to the contrary

Amy
Yes, I’m very proud about making the best decision of leaving everything and continueing foreward. Was it the right one? Who knows… Maybe yes, maybe no. But I love her so, so, so…
Petar Stefanov
to be proud, many would say is almost to be the same as ignorant. i myself hope that i am not proud because if i am that means that i am not putting myself all the way out there. and that is one of my biggest goals in life. being proud is not always a bad thing.
melissa
It makes me glad to know you’re thinking of me right now. To know that it’s you, and no one else I will be thinking about, think about and have always thought about. You make me proud.
SEHRA
I am not proud of my paper write now. I can’t seem to get past the second paragraph and it just seems so entirely obvious to me I don’t know what’s going on. How can I be proud of a thesis I don’t quite grasp. I wish I were Shakespeare.

My family, my friends, my ambition. I am happy. I am free. I am praised. I am so content with my life that I don’t have to thin twice about what I want to do in the next second, or hour, or day, or month, or year. I look back on my past and see the accomplishments.
Jasmine
my ego, my exterior. who i am. standing with my head tall, a lion. defiant stare. brown eyes. red hair. intensity, a virtue, a sin, all in one go.

I am proud of myself, my father, my family, I’m the proud owner of a mustang gt overhauled 199999 blah blah blah, I’m an AMUR-ican and PROUD OF IT.
Sniffles McGee
Being in the Navy made me proud. I was proud to serve my country, and I was proud that I did it in such a way that I was able to retire with an Honorable Discharge. I’m proud of my daughter and what she’s turning out to be. Given the lack of parenting she received from me it’s surprising to see how well she’s turned out. Getting to the position of IT Manager within my current job has given me a sense of pride as well.
Michael Macygin
To understand and accept your own gifts and talents from God, using them generously for the good of others and not diminishing them, is what being proud is all about. Sometimes there is such a thing as false pride and that could be called arrogance.
Steven
God. The one and only word you’ll need. He is! Without him I am not. One word. God. It is the essense of existence. It is the ultimate love. It is my life.
Sheryl Flynn
his answer was not what she expected; his utter disregard for her feelings left her empty and afraid. he looked at her with cold proud eyes.
“the fritter is mine” he said. “stand back!”
“never!” she cried and ran out, crumbs flying.
beerun
this is the thing with pride it eats your soul and shakes the world with all unhealthy things and then what is left but distruction and the feeble inner stuff of your shaken soul , so be not proud but giving and humble and the world like a pearl will grow into somethig brilliant and beautiful with lustre and value with depth and meaning on every possible level of your existence, from your life to every other life you connect and collide with, creating spark and fusion and ether into the universe that glows with eternal inner life like the ocean in which you can breathe and walk in like you belonged

“I always knew I was proud of you,” Samantha said to her son. “You climbed the monkey bars on the playground better than any of the other kids out there. That’ll show them who’s the boss in the neighborhood!”
Jordan looked down at his shoelaces. How could he tell his mom that he wasn’t proud of his feat? Sure, he mastered the playground equipment and was now a self-proclaimed King of the Playground, but that wasn’t what he really wanted. He didn’t want to be different from the other kids, the ones who weren’t able to climb.

I feel so proud when I see a word like proud. Primarily though it makes me think of gay pride. Why I don’t really know, but I would assume that’s because Toronto (my home) the city were I live is quite with the gay community. Quite with being of course, having quite a large community of gay people.
D'Arcy Fine
He wasn’t very smart, but it didn’t typically matter. His nose gave it all away, the way he hung it high in the air, his dark long brown hair excellently groomed into a perfect border about his face.
There was something almost regal about him, in a world full of nothing but paupers, and he knew it. He damn well knew it.
Valdis
Who’s proud? I think of my junior year of high school. Social Justice class. I think of African American struggles. My mother, her long,flowing hair in the 80’s, crying into the bathroom sink.
