In response to The Daily Post’s writing prompt: “Proud.”

My first thought about the writing prompt was no one has told me that in a long time. My second thought was yes that has happened several times in less than six months.

I have been told by several of my friends that they were proud of me for going to Europe alone to a country I’ve never been before not knowing anyone. On top of that I’m directionally challenged.

When my friends told me they were proud of me that made me feel good.

I haven’t told my children I am proud of them in a while, so I’m going to contact them and give them a little bit of encouragement.
