Confident is defined as “the feeling of self-assurance arising from one’s own appreciation of one’s own abilities or qualities”. I further define it and own my own confidence as: “the feeling of self-assurance arising from one’s enjoyment of and gratitude for one’s own abilities and good qualities”. I reflect on my confidence and the memories and stories told to me at my 35th high school reunion 2 years ago - stories told to me by four former classmates, all men. I am grateful for their love and support of this confident woman. Oh, and their names have been changed.
