never heard it. how about a bushel and a peck and a hug around the neck.

It's in the Bible. Jesus said nobody hides their light under a bushel, they put it on a lamp stand where everyone can see it. So everyone should let their light shine!

I would think being "proud" would be making sure everyone acknowledges it and your making sure everyone knows its "your" light.
