I beat myself up most of the time because I think I should be better at everything. However there were a couple of times that I was truly proud of myself and my accomplishments. I remember the day I bought my house - by myself. It's not a mansion by any means but I did it all on my own. I remember my wedding day. I was so proud to stand next to my husband and I'm still proud every day. I remember the day my son was born. I'm proud of him every time I look at him.

Hi hel... my memory is shot too - I'm lucky to remember even one proud moment. You brought up a good point - all of our life experiences make us better persons. I think that's what life is - constant learning. Thanks for your response.

Those are some pretty great things to be proud of! Yesterday I was extremely proud that my daughter pooped in the toilet everytime she needed to instead of in her pullups that I would have had to change. Other than that, yesterday wasn't fun, I told my husband, "Seeing poop in the toilet was the highlight of my day, that should give you a clue that it's not a good idea to aggravate me right now".
