The Power of Self-Pride: Why Believing in Yourself Changes Everything
🔶 Chapter 1: Understanding Self-Pride at Its Core In a world constantly pushing us to compare ourselves with others, self-pride becomes not just a personal trait, but a powerful act of resistance. However, exactly what is self-pride? Why is it so crucial to our identity and way of life? What exactly is self-pride? Self-pride is the deep, internal sense of respect, love, and value that we hold for ourselves—regardless of external validation. It’s the voice inside that says, “I matter. I am adequate. I am deserving. It is not the same as arrogance, which is motivated by a desire to feel superior to other people. Comparison is not required for self-pride. It's about speaking your truth without interfering with others'. Imagine a child drawing something with pure joy and pride—even if it's messy—in their effort. That is the essence of self-pride: a genuine, unfiltered appreciation of one's own existence. Self-Pride's Psychology Psychologists frequently discuss self-esteem, or how we feel about our perception of ourselves, and self-concept, or how we see ourselves.

"Vib"ranium
First off "Spoiler Alert" just watched the new Captain America movie. So......there will be some references to the movie. there are a couple perspectives of Vibranium i will touch on. The most obvious is the cosmic metal that was used to make adamantium. Ok I'm 16 walking into Wegmans'; where Alec Baldwins mother shops for her groceries; to purchase a Marvel Universe update 89' comic. I walked to the magazine isle to see the selection of comics. while I was thumbing through my thoughts."lets see Wolverine, Uncanny X-men, Fantastic Four, Thor. Wow! whats this!" I came upon a gem. See I hadn't planned to purchase a Marvel encyclopedia; but when I saw it I knew. that It was exactly what I wanted. You see the encyclopedias' detailed out certain things like A character's names: like Blade's,which was unknown; teams history: like the Avengers and X-men headquarters were located in upstate New York; and super descriptions: like Adamantium is a combinations of metals. 50 percent and 50 various other metals. the advance of the various metals should be 45 percent Uru and 5 percent Titanium. Why Uru? Uru is tied to Urusalem in the Arc of the covenant; but I digress. You see in the comic books, and a wolverine origin story in the movies. Adamantiun was created by Stryker in a Canadian Research facility. Where he placed on weapon X of Alpha Flight's bones. when you know this comic book info. It makes it difficult to reconcile that adamantium came from space in the form of a Celestial AI being. this is exactly what happened in the Captain America a new world movie. I wonder if viewers of Harry Potter and Twilight had the same trouble as I did reconciling. Fortunately, the presence of Wakandan Tech and Vibranium in the movie was well represented. Now that we have dicussed the objective perspective of Vibranium. next we will discuss the subjective.

Cindy and Chris
Cindy trembled as her stepmother berated her, yelling profanities and slurs like they were her names. Nancy had taken over the doublewide trailer since Cindy’s sweet, caring father had died suddenly a year earlier, and Ms. Stone was a raging alcoholic. Because Cindy’s father was so loving and accepting, she had fully transitioned in middle school to living her life as a girl, but her drunk stepmother didn’t really like the fact that Cindy identified as a woman. She would point out any masculine features remaining, and say Cindy would never truly pass for a girl.
