i have no problems at all with being proud of myself either, but it's important to me to stay humble at the same time.
call it identifying with the rest of the world, empathy for those who would have done just as well as me had they had had caring parents, a good education, 3 passports, teachers who taught them to question everything, space to play in as a kid, a childhood that never knew war or abuse... i could go on and on about the things i'm thankful for.
and doubtless if i'd been born with nothing and got to the same place i'd be doubly thankful.
maybe that trip to india has made me all spiritual and shit, i dunno. people live on dirt over there and they are still grateful to be alive.
