You're still making the mistake of thinking that I'm the one who chooses what you're allowed to feel prideful about. I guess that's the whole solider hive mind thinking still at work. I'm not your commanding officer, soldier, you can feel proud about whatever you want. Some people feel proud that they were born with blond hair. Doesn't mean I have to agree with the logic behind that. Nor does that mean that you have to care about whether or not I agree with said logic.
“Love is the only bow on Life’s dark cloud. It is the morning and the evening star. It shines upon the babe, and sheds its radiance on the quiet tomb. It is the mother of art, inspirer of poet, patriot and philosopher.
It is the air and light of every heart – builder of every home, kindler of every fire on every hearth. It was the first to dream of immortality. It fills the world with melody – for music is the voice of love.
Love is the magician, the enchanter, that changes worthless things to Joy, and makes royal kings and queens of common clay. It is the perfume of that wondrous flower, the heart, and without that sacred passion, that divine swoon, we are less than beasts; but with it, earth is heaven, and we are gods.” - Robert. G. Ingersoll
