An excellent #protip. I love when good stuff happens for my friends. ❤️

One time my friend texted me and she was like “I wasn’t sure if I should say anything about my good news because I know you’re having a tough time right now…” And I was like “never worry about that, I always want to hear your good news,” because actually it cheered me right up.

Yep. Once I had moved a couple steps above being a self-centered jerk, hearing another’s good news started to lift me up when I was down. Gave me just a little more hope and the like.

I’ve always heard that pride is a bad thing but I sure do take a lot of pride in what others around me are doing.
