My favorite part of myself is my open mind, makes me very adaptable. Look forward to reading other responses:)

That's sooooo important!! To know there is no great loss without some small gain.

What I like about myself: I'm perceptive, sensitive and understand emotion better than most. I'm also very patient when it comes to listening to people. It allows me to understand and empathize with people who are hurt, when others would either say the wrong thing or walk away because they don't know how to react to someone in pain.

cool thread, krose...hmmm...what is the best about being me? well, i've coached basketball for 15 years and kids tell me they want to be like me when they grow up all the time (i think that's a compliment...lol) i can always see hope in any situation. i'm creative in several different ways. i give a great massage and have made my living at it for a long time. i can be charming and funny at a party when the mood strikes. but on the more serious side i think i relate best to people from the standpoint that i've had to really crawl out of the dirt to survive myself and that somehow that translates to others having to use no pretense in communicating with me. i kind of think that's the best thing about me. thanks for not making this a post about what our worst sides are...lol!

Wow, what a fantastic idea for a thread - I love it! Feel all the love and positive vibes...Mmmmm...

The best part about me is how comfortable I am. what I mean by that is I surround myself with comfort, and people have ALWAYS felt very comfortable around me. sometimes to the point of trusting me with their deepest darkest because "they knew they could trust me and I wouldn't think they were weird". Wow, thought I, ME??? Kids and adults alike - I love that I create comfort wherever I go.

Also, I ROCK as a mother. And I am awesome with food. You want something to taste good? You give it to me, I will make it delicious and healthy!

I like your threads, krose!

I love my imagination... I have so much fun with myself sometimes... both my mind and body are really flexible.
I also love my strength. I don't think I realize how strong and powerful I am... as I've been through a major reorganization of energy recently... but I am very persistent and true to myself and don't believe in compromise at all. I am a trailblazing pioneer for my own lifestyle, I love that I'm doing this and am pushing the boundaries of what's possible in so many ways. One more thing... I love my aesthetic taste. Its so resonant with the mystery of my boundless energetic self.. omg... yay. It's fun to be me. Sometimes super challenging to ground myself in this world, but still very fun!

I just turned 57 and I am a whole lot wiser now - Also I enjoy my own thoughts!

Excellent question! I think everyone should think about something like this each day.

I would say the best part is my listening ability. I love listening. To the sounds of nature. To my Iron Maiden CD's. To other people scurrying about. To words from people who really have something to say.

And how about you, krose?

:-)

Ian
