Bring on the rocks.

If you’ve worked hard to acquire a talent, or you’ve busted your rear end in the gym, if you’ve spent hours, days, or weeks creating some kind of art or a kickass computer game, I have no problem with you telling me about it. There’s nothing wrong with being labelled ego-centric or being called a ‘show off’ by the people who haven’t done these things themselves. It should be inspiring to other people, not cause them to throw rocks. Jealousy is a lot uglier than pride. Bring on the proud people, and the rocks.
