Define "Pride" - What Are You Proud Of?

Pride can mean so many things to so many people. From being proud of your children to taking pride in your work. Each persons list of what they are proud of could range from one thing to dozens or more. I am most proud of my kids.

For this discussion, pick one thing you are proud of, and not neessarily the thing you take most pride in.

My "pride" discussion has to do with my car. As I pulled into my driveway tonight, a song just started playing on the MP3 CD I have in my car. The song is Swamped by Lacuna Coil (for those interested). I parked in my driveway, turned up the volume (quite loud I must say), and turned on the Street Glow neons inside of my Town Car. It was 5 minutes of bliss, and I also felt pride in my accomplishments of dressing up the interior of my car. My audio system packs a wallop - bass pounding through the seat vibrating my back, clear crisp highs, and no distortion at almost deafening volumes. That, coupled with the lights, just made me feel proud of it all. I had someone (Tweeter Etc) install the audio system. But it was me who extensively researched what would work best in my car. I picked out all of my components, right down to the high-grade wire. I installed all of the neons myself, as well as the Dynamat in the trunk.

It was all well worth it. I love my music, and my car provides an incredible listening experience (along with the night time light show).

I'm proud of it.
