i used to wonder,why some people are plain proud of whatever they have...??????cant they be humble??most the 'proud' category people will be the rich ones,highly talented or just super good looking...that was my mere thought.......

as i grow up,my thought differs...

they are not proud..we are judging the book from the cover without getting to know them...

every individual have their own way of handling life..it takes a few hurdles to reach what we are having now...as they reach. each step the level of confidence increases

y take it as being proud?..well capturing  pride...take it that way...and try to analyze..what makes a person proud? it can be the position they posses..the family they have..their culture...or anything that actually makes a person happy ..

im not sure if what i scribble may differ from others...but never ever judge anyone without knowing them first..and from my eyes..its ok to be proud as long you dont luse ur values..

proud of what u are,proud of what u have..proud of being you!
