I’m proud of how I raised my four children in difficult circumstances and of the amazing people they are today, especially my oldest daughter who went through something no parent should ever have too. She’s my biggest inspiration

I'm proud of my son, first an foremost.

I'm proud of my musical talent, my artist talents and I'm proud that I know where my talents do and do not lie

I'm proud of my friends and family.

Mostly I'm proud of myself for digging myself out of a rut, for standing up for myself and discovering peace with myself.

I'm proud of my integrity and my kindness, my strength to stand up again after things go horribly wrong. Wiser but not twisted by it. Not succumbing to nastiness.

My determination, resilience, and strength.

My growing self belief, being my own weird and wonderful self. Becoming confident, not arrogant.

I'm also a good writer.

With a very bumpy journey through my (her) childhood and my early adult life, I can now say I am proud of who I am and what I have achieved from raising a family, to my career and finding true love but most of all I take great pride in helping others - my family, my friends and even complete strangers. I like to make someone feel special, make someone smile or laugh or help them in difficult moments.

I could easily have chosen a different path for myself, I have no regrets for the negativity I have experienced as it has made me the person I am today... because I chose to not let it hurt me any longer.

It's not the material things that matter to me, it's that I will always be there to help others. That's the quality of my personality that I am most proud of and is something I want to be remembered for.

Thank you x

That's really lovely and not dissimilar to me and my life journey this far.

Right now I am so proud of my daughter, well all of my kids, but her in particular.

She's 14 and a friend and a boy were chatting with a view to whatever youngsters call the next step. He messaged her to say that he's not in the right place for any kind of relationship atm but could they still be friends. My daughter knows both of them and her friend was really upset. The next day my lovely girl took her a brownie she'd made wrapped in a little note basically saying that she's always here for her

She also text the boy to make sure he was ok because she knows he has mental health issues.

I just thought God at such a young age that's just so sweet but I was proudest of the fact that she cared about both people and made no judgements re the boy.

Everyone needs a best friend like her!!
