There's enough hate and negativity in this world. So I'm making this topic so everyone can just say one random thing they like about themselves and feel good about it.
For instance, I'm really good at tricking people into thinking I'm funny.
GO!
POST STUFF!
I like how my eyes sometimes scare people
Hmmmm.. I'm thinking.. still thinking.. ahhhh.. I have one.. my friends are cool..
All three of my grown sons have thanked me for being a great Mom, even when they were at their worst. That is truly the nicest thing to hear. You often think you are not doing a good enough job. They also thanked me for having a sarcastic and at times a totally inappropriate sense of humor. I did a good job after all. Who knew?
I like the fact that I care enough to cry at things that need being cried at. And I like that I know what those things are.
I can walk very quietly and sit very still, and don't need to be talking or moving all the time. Especially when I need to create a space of peace and calm around me, and I like that about myself.
Odd, I seem to take too much time thinking what to write in here. Hmm I can sleep soundly both lying and sitting. Does that count?
LIVE every moment.
LOVE beyond words.
LAUGH everyday.
I provide unconditional love to those closest to me, even when I myself am at my worst.
I have a relatively nice singing voice.
"Hey Ray! I'm still standing!" (Raging Bull)
I provide comfort to others by a simple hug.
The Executive Director of our community theatre (where I have done about six shows) told my wife I could have a walk-on part in The Music Man later this spring. With my health issues I have planned to stop auditioning for roles and taking part in the theatre goings on. What was especially striking to me was her telling my wife that I was "beloved" at the theatre. I like about myself that I had never gathered, nor assumed, that I was "beloved" and I'm actually quite proud of that.
I am intensely loyal and protective of my friends.
I love to make people laugh. And I like reminding everyone that they are perfect just as they are........they may get perfecter next week, but for now, they are perfect.
I am not perfect, nor perfecter, but I do seem to occupy a significant amount of unnecessary space quite nicely. Or so I am told.
"Them ain't no militia, that's the Army of the Potomac!"
I'm not around much... and probably could get an argument that it's still too often...
