Feeling pleasure and satisfaction (5)

I believe the answer is:

proud

(Other definitions for proud that I've seen before include "Slightly projecting; imposing" , "Boastful" , "Feeling self-respect - projecting from a surface" , "Feeling gratified or arrogant" , "Walking tall" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
