Helloooo :) The question of today is....(drum rolls) What is proudest achievement/moment in your life were the most proud of yourself?

    I think the older you get the harder this is to answer. I've got a lot I'm proud of and a lot I'm not proud of. Professionally speaking, I'm very proud that I was able to make a lot of people happy at the last company I was at (reddit).

    I hope to surpass that at Imzy!

    I'm currently proud that my teenage kids aren't hateful or racist and that they have pretty good context for the current world we live in.

    • ifindkarmaMay 15, 2016 at 2:46 PMΔ

      I totally blanked on this question too because you're right, it's difficult to answer as we get older.

      Excellent that your kids aren't hateful. /kindness applauds that achievement.

      I think you're missing the word "happy" in the sentence "make a lot of people" above. :)

        is there a joke in this giph that I'm totally missing?

      • DanMay 15, 2016 at 2:49 PMΔ

        OMG, I just blue myself.

      • ifindkarmaMay 15, 2016 at 3:04 PMΔ

        @dan there has GOT to be a better way to say that.

      • ifindkarmaMay 15, 2016 at 3:04 PM

        @eilis I'm not sure. I don't know the context either. It's a giphy weakness to not have context.

      • DanMay 15, 2016 at 3:04 PMΔ

        I could make Arrested Development jokes all day, every day.

      • EilisMay 15, 2016 at 3:12 PMΔ

        haha, I loved that show! Did you like the reboot of it?

      • EilisMay 15, 2016 at 3:12 PMΔ

        p.s. who was your favorite character?

      • ifindkarmaMay 15, 2016 at 6:19 PMΔ

        I find Buster irresistible, and also the Michael Cera character is just so earnest. :)

      • ifindkarmaMay 15, 2016 at 6:19 PM

        [/giphy I don't know what I expected]

        I don't know what I expected

      • EilisMay 15, 2016 at 6:27 PM

        I like Michael Cera too :) and Maebe. I always felt weird, but I liked them together! But I'd gotten the spoiler before watching the show they weren't related, so not that weird I guess!

    • EilisMay 15, 2016 at 2:47 PM

      Make a lot of people happy? Or maybe I am reading it wrong!

      Congratulations on knowing your kids are growing up to be good people (: I don't have kids, but can only imagine how rewarding that must feel!

  • americanfishMay 15, 2016 at 2:38 PMΔ

    I would say it was graduating from college yesterday, but if I can manage the big move tomorrow without arguing with my family, it will be that.

    • EilisMay 15, 2016 at 2:45 PMΔ

      Hey! I hope the move goes smoothly :) Congratulations on graduating!!!

      • americanfishMay 15, 2016 at 2:55 PM

        Thanks!

    • greenieMay 15, 2016 at 9:31 PM

      oh wow, big congrats!

    • NateMay 16, 2016 at 8:41 AMΔ

      What did you graduate in?

      • americanfishMay 18, 2016 at 3:58 PMΔ

        English (Technical and Professional writing). I got a job as a technical writer, which I will be starting next week.

      • NateMay 19, 2016 at 9:13 AM

        Congratulations on the new job!

  • EilisMay 15, 2016 at 2:44 PMΔ

    Hooray! Excellent question. :) Now I have to think of it.

    • ifindkarmaMay 15, 2016 at 2:47 PM

      I totally am blanking.

      I'm not usually proud of accomplishments, and I try not to beat myself up when things don't work out.

  • EilisMay 15, 2016 at 2:54 PMΔ

    I feel like this can be answered in a macro or micro way! There are certain tiny moments in which I felt very happy with my choice, but which probably weren't like, the defining proud moment of life. And, certain moments that seemed to be most proud, at the time, have since been surpassed as I grew up (: Some moments that stand out: Bringing a starving kitty out from the cold (!) Graduating high school, and college, with good grades Whenever I get to that final page of a novel and feel like, ah yes, it's complete! (Then weeks later realize it needs revised twice more, but whatever!) Writing a lot in general, and being adept with words That time I helped a teenager at an airport, instead of ignoring her need! Long story, but I was proud of helping. I too often feel too embarrassed to step in, to help. Playing a song fulfillingly (on piano especially) Having overcome several life-changing obstacles and still being here smiling! I'm proud of this community too :)

    • Daredevil22May 16, 2016 at 12:45 AMΔ

      Yeah i should have said one of the moments instead of THE moment. But great that you help people (or kitties!!) in need. :D

      • EilisMay 16, 2016 at 5:29 PM

        :D

  • NateMay 16, 2016 at 8:41 AM

    For me it would be realizing I was unhappy in my career path. Changing path completely. And self-teaching myself to success.
