What are you proud of? It can be a big thing or a little triumph. We are proud of you!

I wore a bikini and went swimming. I am super uncomfortable with my body, so I have been forcing myself to wear crop tops and stuff. It made my social anxiety worse at first but now I am getting better at that too.It has really helped, and I feel a little better about myself.

I helped to get an innocent person out of prison (who had spent two years in prison already) on his appeal by uncovering that the police lied in a police report and on the witness stand. My client had no criminal record and was a single parent to the cutest little boy. He spoke only Spanish and I spoke only English, so we had an interpreter help us along the way. He had the choice of pleading guilty to a lesser crime and be guaranteed release or to continue fighting the charge. I asked him what he wanted to do and he said that he trusted me completely and he would do what I suggested. It was a risk, but I told him not to take the plea. His sentence was stayed pending appeal based on the strength of my brief. So, he was released immediately! I'll never forget when he was welcomed into the arms of his waiting family. His mom was crying tears of joy. I stood back and just soaked up the beautiful sight thanking the universe for all of it!

I'm proud of a few things... In a list, 1. Being able to raise an eyebrow. 2. Making my palms face my elbows. 3. Knowing 5 national anthems. 4. Folding very thin pieces of paper in half 8 times (if you've ever heard of that). That's probably all I could come up with...
