In life we do things that we love and enjoy, and we do it with purpose. We do it to feel and have a since of accomplishment in our lives. We want our family to be proud of us an the things that we do to make us happy, but it is not always like that in families. There are those that will cheer you on, and there are those that will stand at a distance and hate. There are those that will be there for you when you need them, and there are those that will not. There are those that will complain about what you are doing in your life, but doesn’t want to even give a true compliment when you ask them if they are proud of you. They smile and say yes, but all in all they are just saying it to make you feel good as to not hurt your feelings. It is a shame for someone to treat a person like that.
When things like that happen, it is best to never ask a person if they are proud of you because they will lie. I think it is because they do not have the abilities that you have to do what you do, and they are intimidated by your talents. I think it is because they know that what you are doing is profitable; even if not in the beginning when you start, but it will eventually happen. When it does happen they all will be astonished at your accomplishments.
If and when someone asks you if you are proud of them, please be honest. Don’t lie to that person. I look at things like this, we only need God to be proud of us, nothing else matters. As long as God is proud of us and the things we do for Him to bring Him glory is all that matters.
