Sometimes I recall when people say they’re proud of me. They’re either being facetious when they say it or patronizing. I think it’s a little bit of both. It’s highly unlikely that someone says they’re proud of you and they truly mean it. Unless of course they’re your parents.
joel
of being myself
Naz
Of the many moments that constitute the cycle of my life, I am most proud of the moments that I decide to stay with myself. To ground whatever I decide to do in whatever situation I am in, into my self. To stick with me – and not go with the flow. To be a fork in the road, the one person that doesn’t want to do what everyone else wants to do.
That is what I am proud of.
Andrew
I am proud of the things that i have overcome in my life. I am proud of the woman that I am today. I am proud of the life I will not settle for. I am proud to be a biracial woman. I am proud to wake up everyday and say that I am doing something positive and productive with my life.
Cecily
I am standing in between two major decisions, and I have no idea what I am going to do with either of them.
I have my dignity on one side. I have the life ahead of me that could be. I have the possbility of going to college, and the possibility of becoming a mother and raising a family and being a successful pyschologist.
And then on the other side, I have him, grinning at me so angelically it’s crazy. I don’t want him to be there, and I don’t want him to care about me. I want him to be everything to me, but unfortunately, wanting him is risking everything I have.
And so I walk away, and I’m proud.
Ashley Flowers
i am proud to be who i am. i am proud of the way i live, who i am friends with, and how i act on an everyday basis. we should all be proud of who we are because there is no perfect way to be. everyone is an individual and everyone has a different story. be proud.

Pride. It’s a sin, I hear. It’s hard to go without it in modern day society though, or at least for people like me. Something has to tell you to stop other from stepping on your toes. For me that’s pride. I guess it’d be better to do without it though. Even if it’s about something good, like pride at helping a human being.
Jerky
I have always wanted to make my parents proud of me. I don’t know where that strong desire came from – they were never too demanding or controlling. I suppose the love they bestowed on me when they were proud of me had a different quality to it – something my young mind could recognize as belonging in an entirely different category of love.
Amy
Throughout most of human history, kids knew what they had to do because it had to be done. They found pride in what they did. Today, we try to give kids things to do because we think they will enjoy those things. So we’re creating a generation of people who are interested only in pleasing themselves.
Chris Huff
I wake up every morning thinking how proud I am to be out of the house. Into my own world, with my perfect boyfriend and our bed. I lay here thinking how often I would sit in my own bed at home, wondering when I would do something with my life. and now here I am, proud, naked, with my amazing boyfriend.
Meesha

I am proud to be an American. I can exercise my right to vote and I can speak my opinions in public, albeit sometimes I may be too outspoken or may offend someone. I am also a very proud parent of two wonderful boys, age 24 and 19.
Denise
Are you too proud to talk to me? Is that it? I don’t really think so. You aren’t proud. You never showed me anythig remotely close to proudness. Porudness is close to selfishness. Pig-headedness. I never saw you that way. Why, you’re part kosher! But what is it then? If you’re not proud, are you just lazy? Do you care? Or are you really going through such a hard time?
Brisni
i am proud of who i am, what i have done. every action i do in my life becomes part of who i am, and because of that i find the need to be myself in every part of every day. for if i am not myself, i soon become otherwise. and that is not a good place to settle. only to soon you find you cant go back
Revilo Kindem
the thought comes across as something arogant, something planted into me of which i have no control over. It is an ancient and binding feeling that makes me want to close my eyes and look away at times. other times, i want to embrace it as i would a child. simple, yet complex.
teresa
Proud is where you feel that you have accomplished something, proud is having the satisfaction in your own work. Being proud is a part of life.
Nicholas Brennan
Her mother made her proud that day. She defended her in front of the other woman. All this time she thought she’d been hated by the woman who had spawned her. Just this once, Beatrice didn’t have to be ashamed, or feel horrid.
Lita
I am proud to be a lot of things but most I am proud to be my own self. I do a lot of stuff on my own and I could not be anymore proud of myself for being able to do this. I am not proud of the school I go to I can’t do it but I am proud htat i am goign to work harder and be able to do it I dont wanna disappointe mt parents

was it elizabeth bennet who was too proud, or was she the prejudiced one? maybe it was mr.darcy, i always forget, but what my point is, is that they end up together. despite it all. despite pride, despite prejudices. there’s nothing real love cannot conquer.
eryn
Is being proud a bad thing? I understand that pride is one of the 7 deadly sins, but at what point is it detrimental and at what point is it a healthy level of self confidence? If nobody is proud of their achievements or their children, what moves humanity forward? Is it necessary?
James Hovard
I’m proud of you. I have seen you change when I started to begin that you never would. You are the missing puzzle piece to my heart and I’ll forever be grateful that you could mend that shape for me, and more importantly, for yourself. I’m proud. I’m proud. I’m proud.

proud oh so proud what does it mean to be proud a lion has qualities of a proud creature however they move in a pride therefor signaling every waking moment of the tall african grass able to grow with such a deadly sin. Pride is a mortal sin, it is deadly, so i guess i will stop being proud, and stop being a lion…nonetheless i am not cowardly, true,
chriddo
Proud as a peacock, the boss strode across the thrid floor, looking over the secretaries shoulders with a wry grin. He had warned them four would be gone by the end of the week. Everyone hunched over their computers and typed more quickly.
Melissa Anne
Pride. I want mine back. I miss it. I miss how it made me feel powerful how I never second guessed myself. How everyone wanted to be my friend or sleep with me. That’s what pride did to me. It made me the person I always wanted to be and now that it is gone….I just have no idea.
Evan
Proud as a peacock he stood with a grin
And didn’t think at all when they laughed at him.
He strutted and posed, with a jubilant air
Because He was a kitty, and just didn’t care.
Cassie
Pictures. We took them abd we were pround of siunshine in our eyes and heart. Not sin, just pround. An dlife flows threw us. Yeah, I was proud of my love.
kate
I am proud of my country. Proud of my little brother who enlisted in the Marines to fight for it. Excited? No. Proud? Yes. Because he is stepping up to do what, Lord knows, I didn’t step up to do. I’m proud to call him family.

I am proud to have married Danny Zink and to have remained married to him for over 39 years. I am proud to have four grown children who are each happy, good, well, and smart. I am proud that we bought an old house that was built in 1920. I am not proud of the way the yard looks or the way the inside of it looks. I wish I could do more with it: clean it, for instance. I am proud to have a Master’s degree. I am proud to be a school counselor in Kansas with tenure in my job. Most things I am not proud of, but that does not mean that I am ashamed of them. We were taught not to be proud. It has taken me awhile to define what proud means. Being proud is not a value of mine. Being self-satisfied is a value of mine. However, when I am self-satisfied for too long, or with too many things in my life, I get concerned.
Sharon Zink
you speak so loud. I find the fire in your heart when you speak of them. You speak so proud. I find the reason for your happy days. Dont turn back or look down because these people your friends they make you proud.

Being with my little boy makes me feel proud. I created that life and watching it grow is amazing. He is so clever and I see the world through a fresh pair of eyes. As he learns, it makes me learn too. I couldnt be prouder of him. I hope he never lets me down…
