What are you proud of?

[melodyeye]

Hi there,
Everyone should have something that they think of as an achievement in life. So tell me new grounds; what's something that you're proud of, or something you think you deserve some sort of recognition for?

I would have to say one of my most biggest achievements in life was to hear my dad tell me that he was proud of me and what I have done in my life thus far into it. I know it don't sound like much but to me it’s better than anything I have done.
Please share your experience......

Im proud of the fact that I have nt killed anyone despite my "issues" (I have bpd, its hell).

On a more serious note Im happy Ive gone back to Uni and I will finally be getting my diploma and degree. I already have a pretty good education, but uni is always something Ive wanted to do, so Im pleased that Ive gone back

I feel thankful and happy, because I do see myself as pretty than anyone every time I look at the mirror, as a female I am so proud of that.

I'm proud that I haven't messed up so badly that there was no way to redeem myself. No way to come back. Believe me, I've gotten more than just a second chance in my life countless times and I am so thankful for those chances. I know the world doesn't revovle around any one person in particular or even care about anyone or anything, but I'm glad the universe has seen to it that I'm still standing. Still able to help those I love. However minute. Taking the trash out for my mom. Keeping my dad company by watching a movie with him when I'm back home. Buying and paying stuff for my girlfriend when I can.

It's hard to be proud of myself sometimes though, considering I'm over 30 and I have never been in a relationship before this one, have never lived on my own, have no credit, have always gotten hand-me-downs, and don't have a steady paying job. Could be worse, right?

However, I am proud of myself. There's still time to make things right. Righter, any way. Can't give up. Won't give up.

Proud of my time in the USAF and serving in Desert Storm. I wish I hadn't gotten out when I did, I'd be retiring soon.

Thank you for your service, endo, and anyone else on here and elsewhere. I know I couldn't do what you all do. Biggest thing being I don't mind following rules, I just don't like being told what to do.
