A teacher told me once "Whatever you do take pride in what you do. If you are sweeping a floor take pride in sweeping that floor."
We should take pride in our life and be proud of what has been done for us by past generations.
Being proud is not a haughty pride that bull dozes its way through to move others out of our way.
And true pride is not vanity and it knows that difference in ourselves and in others.
I think pride is knowing we do our best, with what we have to work with, with what we know at the time.
People with pride are thankful and see life as an opportunity they have been given to contribute their best.
Pride becomes a way of life not for what others think of us but for what we think of ourself.
