Call me sad, boring or a bitter person, but I think there's nothing I'm proud of. I'm not proud of myself or my family -although I love them. I'm not proud of my country or even the world, and definitely not proud of being human. So, here's the question, There's anything else to be proud of?
Maybe, is just that I'm not comfortable with that word. I wouldn't call it "being proud of something" but being satisfied instead. I have felt that I was satisfied with my work or performance many times. In fact, I like the way I am -mostly.
Anyway, I think that being proud of something or someone is more than just being satisfied. Because, when people said that are proud of something I think that they're boasting about it, like they were better, but in a bad way and with a negative connotation. Maybe because they only say they're proud when something very special happens, like a huge achievement, but not with simple little things of life.
I'm not denying the possibility of being proud in a good way, and I would like to feel that way sometime in the future. For now, I'm hoping it will happens when I finally finish my career.
