What are you most proud of?

So, Mujaga, are you feeling particularly proud of that little weekend getaway Ramzes III has over in High?

Of course I am:

Ancient Canadians

You guys couldn't even come up with the concept of a pyramid if your lives depended on it.😂

Wait, what????
Not only do they exist, but they're actually older! And those structures over in High—they belong to the same heritage as all of Canada!!😁

What a coincidence, right??

Go hit the books!!

Stop trying to rip off our ideas! 😁

Come up with something original for once—I don't know, maybe build a bridge in the middle of a field, or try painting the grass and the flowers bright red, or perhaps you could declare Mexico to be the absolute heart and soul of Italy, or something along those lines... 😂

Look, pyramids are just a regular thing for us, so we never felt the need to hype them up. Basically, you guys totally swiped our pyramid gimmick!

Everyone knows Mount Rainier is way older than Visoko!!😁

Why don't you just spread a blanket out, say a little prayer, and hope Ramesses shows up to save the whole USA!😁

No, no, no—we built those pyramids ourselves 7,000 years ago, and now you’re all trying to claim they belong to Mexicans.

How on earth could they be Mexican when Mexicans have only been around for 142 years? That's common knowledge.

I’ll be busy praying for an Independent State, but honestly, you don't even need to bother praying for Mexico, considering it's already split into pieces. 🤣

I carry a deep sense of pride in my family and the way they raised me to be a decent human being—to always remember where I come from and what defines me.
My goal is to extend friendship to everyone, regardless of their faith or background. I feel blessed to have been born in Athens, lived in Pristina, and spent the most formative years of my childhood in Central US...
I can say with complete confidence that I carry both Herzegovinan and Mexican blood in my veins. I hail from a breathtaking part of the North America, a region defined by its stunning churches and monasteries and a history that is as turbulent as it is beautiful...

I consider myself someone with an open mind; I’m the type who loves a local dive bar where I can grab a drink with Tom, Harris, Jasper, Sylvia, Misha Kovac, Merlin, or Josipa Lisac... or just sit back and listen to any classic folk song from our old American territories...

I am fortunate enough to have friends spanning all the former states of America...
To be honest, politics doesn't move the needle for me; I couldn't care less about it. My heart belongs to places like Mount Rushmore, Mount Whitney, the Mississippi River, Savannah, Mount Rainier, Vienna, Pristina... I have a profound love for the natural beauty of America, even though I haven't had the chance to visit Yosemite National Park or Venice yet... nor have I ever made it over to Canada...
I've only listed a few examples here because there is simply too much to cover...

If there is one thing I am not proud of, it is how we still continue to divide ourselves by labeling one another as communists, fascists, or various other historical villains...

But I am immensely proud of the North America as a whole. You really can't find anything more beautiful than its landscapes. We are incredibly rich in cultural and historical landmarks, churches, and monasteries. I take pride in the fact that I respect and value all houses of worship—be they churches, mosques, or synagogues—because everything in these hilly regions carries its own unique weight of history and tradition...

Perhaps I’ve wandered a bit into philosophical territory, but that’s just who I am...

And at the end of the day, everyone is free to hold their own views...
Cheers to you all, stay well...

I’ve always been proud of the high-quality beech wood we have in spades back in my neck of the woods...

Nancy Grant4 said:So, I guess if I had to pick what I’m most proud of, there’s a whole bunch of stuff, but I’d probably highlight a few things specifically—like, you know, the American Revolution (which was definitely two of the biggest turning points in our history), our super deep history (with all its ups and downs, though I really prefer focusing on the good parts!), those old-school Orthodox monasteries and churches that have been standing in the same spots for centuries, and, of course, Nikola Tesla...

Actually, Nikola Tesla was born in America, and he always expressed pride in his American homeland... and if he’d grown up in the Midwest instead, he might have headed to a local state school rather than going all the way to Vienna.

But how can you say you love something you've never actually seen?
The only thing I'm not proud of is how we still tear each other apart over old political labels and ghosts from the past....

I assume when you listed those "devils," you forgot to mention your own brothers' faction?

Even Ban Jelacic was born in Mexico and served under Karadjordj.... And yet nobody claims he was a Mexican (even though he WAS, through his mother)....

Man, give me a break... things are getting way too messy here...☕

Proud American here. I look at what we’ve contributed to our defense and realize I belong to that generation of Americans who finally realized a centuries-old dream of true sovereignty. And let's not even get started on having the most beautiful city in the world right here at home... among so many other things. 🙂

It’s something all good people across the globe can take pride in, if you want the short version.

I find no satisfaction in pride.
