Hey Pandas, Tell Us About Something You’re Proud Of (Closed)

For the past two years my life curve has been going low and I don't have anything to be proud of.

I am so proud of my daughter, now qualified after 5 yrs as a Vet. She has worked very hard for it both at secondary school and Uni. I wish her well for the future.

The power people have to achieve great things. Whether that is working 14 hour shifts in hospitals to save lives during the pandemic, accomplishing a breath taking stunt on a ski slope, or even having the strength to get dressed after fighting a period of depression.

This has been so evident over the last year and a half - the kindness and support people have shown to others and the environment is wonderful.

I'm proud of my mom surviving the birthing of me and my sisters as she had C-sections for all of us.

Proud of my Mom for demonstrating what real, unwavering love is.

I’m proud of my mum, she has been through absolute hell in the past 2 weeks, and she’s still always there for all of us, even when she is in bad pain. She always cares for all of us, no matter what.

My husband. He has cancer and never feels sorry for himself and he never complains. God I love that man.

I’m proud that in my search for my forever dog 10 years ago I accidentally stumbled into foster care and right now I’m watching my 28th foster dog sleeping soundly on the floor. She’s my first hospice dog and I’ve had her 4 years, all but 1 (died unexpectedly from tick fever) found loving forever homes.

For once I actually have a couple things, I got really good grades, a lot of positive referrals, I made it to my 15th birthday (an achievement I didn't expect to get), and my little cousins look up to me. I'm mostly proud of them though, they are much stronger then I am and I think I look up to them more than they know.

I'm proud to say that I'm someone my family can count on. I've always told my nieces and nephews (I have no kids, medical reasons) that if they feel they can't talk to their parents, they can always come to me and they'll have my added support. My father is recently widowed (my mom died in September 2020) and he can count on me to help him with paper work etc and his bank (he's only learning now how to use the ATM). It might seems that it's being taken advantage of, but it helps me mentally to know I can help them.

I have enough US Patents issued that I've stopped keeping track of the number.

Straight out of HighSchool I published a book.

It’s a Sci-Fi/ Horror. I hope to publish more in the future.

I'm proud of my friend who is starting to sleep more 😁

I’m proud of myself because I managed to get passing grades this year. School during Covid was insanely hard for me, and yet, I managed to do so much better as the year went on. I had some incredible teachers and so many people help me out, and I succeeded. This actually works for school in general, but this year was definitely the most challenging.

I'm proud that I taught my German Shepherd to play Find It with her treats. Basically, I hide her treats around a room and tell her "Go find your treats!" And as she nears one, I'll say "Warmer" until she's right on top of it, then I say "Hot!" And she'll stop and smell the area she's in until she finds it. If she walks away, I'll say "Colder" and she usually turns back around.

I went to a higher education middle school and still graduated top of grade

I did 328 consecutive double-unders (jump rope term) in 7th grade

Proud of my girlfriend who recently debuted as an author.
Not surprising, but her book is one of my favourites

My daughter. Without any doubt the nicest , smartest and sweetest person in the world.

I grew up very poor. I'm told my mom would skip meals so I could eat. I also had a hard time in school due to severe social anxiety and dyslexia. I finished my bachelors degree at 35 graduating with honors. I started working in my field within a month and today I own a nice house with a great mountain view. I own my dream car and am positioned to retire a millionaire at 55.
