1. Proud.

I always feel proud about some or the other thing. In fact, I feel proud about everything I feel I possess. The vague thing about this is there are things which if some one else possesses (considering he or she doesn’t possess), he or she may not feel proud about but I still do.

Moreover, there are instances where I am proud about a certain thing and if that comes to an end or may be the opposite of that thing become a part of my life; my proud feeling will still stay.

Confusing, huh!!

An example – If I am up by 6AM each day, I will carry a proud feeling of getting up early. After a while, my schedule changes and I starting getting up by 9AM, I will start feeling proud about it saying – I have a leisurely sleep each day.

Analyzing further, I see so many things (actually all the things) I am proud of, which are as follows

I am proud of being –
Practical
Punctual
Short-tempered
Particular
Smart
Dynamic
Impatient
A leader
Illogical at times and logical at times too
Fitness freak
Sporty
A great driver
Crazy
Sensible
Sensitive
Hearty
Nature lover
Humorous
Artistic
Mimic
Extrovert
Fun-filled
Dominating
Chauvinist
Casual

All these so-called adjectives are usually followed by a line at the conscious level. For instance, when I think of being punctual, it is followed by a remark – Dude, no one can be as punctual as I am. This remark is usually to the self but at times as a statement to others too.

I really feel proud in expressing my feeling and publishing it as a blog followed by circulating to my dear ones saying that look this is what I introspect and ultimately, I am proud of my introspections as well.

Would finding one person who is "better" than you in each department change the pride "perception"? If so, it would be relatively easy to find a "better" person in each department (e.g. someone who is more punctual, someone who is more humorous, etc). If not, then there is probably a need to dive deeper because what's the point of feeling proud if you are not the best in a given category, just better than most. Hope I am making sense.
