My resilience and perseverance, life just throws continuous shit sandwiches at you as a woman and you have to be mentally strong to survive it. u/Far-Tap4535 I’ve been able to be consistent in working out 4-5 days a week. It’s made me feel strong and at my best. It helps me mentally as well. u/justaperson5588 My need and want to always want to learn and be curious and open-minded. I wouldn’t even call it pride necessarily because I haven’t really done anything to be this way but I am more thankful for this feature I have. u/Top-Competition-2405
My home. I like to make it clean and comfy so that I and everyone in my life feel comfortable and cozy. u/sunshineandcats21. Beautiful. I can smell your scented Yankees from here. u/Tennispro5691. Yes love my cozy apartment. u/ImplementAwkward1105. My home. I've turned it into my sanctuary for me and my plants and I love my big master bedroom and bath. I paid it off in 8 years and am super stoked about that. u/LeighofMar
How fun I am, I can literally make myself laugh any time and people close to me heard me laugh in my sleep a few times. I take pride that I don’t take anything too seriously. _unusual_. I am a good friend. I enjoy my own company in restaurants, picnics, etc. I am a great cook. I am able to work with difficult people without compromising my values. u/SnooFoxes5460. My independence, never needing support or help. u/sadsledgemain I am compassionate, considerate, kind and a hard worker. u/user
I clawed my way out of generational poverty. My family also has a generational issue with teenage pregnancy, which I didn't fall into either. Not that it's a judgment, I just saw how difficult it was for the girls and women in my family. I just didn't want that for myself. DueSomewhere8488. Ending generational trauma by going to therapy and not having kids. u/SacredSherbet. I'm breaking the cycle of untreated mental health problems in my family. u/GangstaGastrino
Being able to enjoy my own company in public settings. On a silly note, wearing different colorful/kooky earrings every day of my existence! u/dumplingboob. My ability to connect with animals. Most dogs and cats will walk straight up to me, even animals whose owners swear up and down they never go to other people than them. u/WrestlingWoman. I'm a skilled quilter. I can also cook and bake quite well. u/SunsetandSilence
That I'm not a parent yet!! Or could avoid it this long. I'm scared of being a parent, or just the idea of giving birth. u/Impossible-Bat90. As a parent, I can see your stance on this. It’s a huge commitment and you don’t know what type of child your kid will be until they’re here, even in full health. It’s aged me about 100 years. u/AJP8635.
Advanced Degree. No one can take that away. Had to go through a lot of bullshit to get it, but very proud of it. u/Leopold_Bloom_ Yes! I feel this! it's very satisfactory like, "I did this for me." u/Leafyfire Seriously: my advanced degrees. I have an MD and an MPH. Superficially: my smooth, no acne skin with minimal hyperpigmentation. I worked so hard to get my skin to this point with retinol, AHa and vitamin C. u/TheSunscreenLife
My positive attitude. When shit hits the fan, I’m always able to find a silver lining. I didn’t learn to be that way until I was 20 (severely depressed & on the fence about whether to carry on) so I have immense gratitude for being able to turn my brain around and drastically change how I feel on the regular. Things don’t phase me anymore because I know they could be much worse and they could also be much better if I simply change my attitude. u/SnooCauliflowers7032
I take pride in being able to reclaim my life from my childhood abuser. She ruined my life for 7 long years and finally left when I was 15. When I was 17 I started working full-time, got my GED, and built a career where I am doing well today at 30 years old. I am the only one in my family who was able to move past this and build a life for myself and because of that, I am often the one everyone leans on. u/Jessica_rose_gg
My creativity. I love writing and have done so since I was little, as far back as I can remember. I draw, I cosplay, I crochet, I paint. I take pride in having hobbies that are just for myself that (I feel) I'm pretty good at. u/battling_murdock. My creativity! I've been making visual art for most of my life. It's gotten me a lot of amazing opportunities and a job that I really love! u/WhippieCake
