Pride; Its Self Respect

Im very proud of who i am, both ethnically and personally, as in the man i am. In fact 'very proud' would be an understatement! Im not full of myself, im not ego centric, i havent got even got what id consider a huge sence of self esteem but i have alot of pride.I take pride in how i behave, how i think, how i act, both my past and my present. You see despite the level of humility one could have and how modest you can be, its vital to take pride in who you are, what you do and what your about!To me its a refreshing and everlasting fountain of confidence but more than anything my pride is self respect.Think about it, it makes alot of sense! If your a somewhat descent person who leads a moral life based upon respectable philosophies, take alot of pride in yourself.Respect yourself.
