What are you most proud of in your life?
I like it when people are proud of me, but I have a hard time feeling proud of myself. Of course, I know I can be proud of other things. When I was a teacher, I was proud of the Battle of the Books team I coached every year because, not to brag but, we had a 7 year winning streak up until I left. I hope they win again this year and continue the legacy I started since I was the one who created the team.
But to answer what I am most proud of, it’s hard to say. I have overcome so much in my life that I should really say I am most proud of myself. But I can’t. I don’t really know how pride is supposed to feel when it comes to myself. Maybe it’s because I still feel so negatively about what has happened to me in my life. I’ve survived it all, but I’m angry about a lot of it. Very, very angry right now. Hopefully soon I’ll be able to reflect on it and feel pride for having gotten through it. But not quite yet. I’m still processing it. One day though.
