I can't believe we don't have a social thread like this.... (Or maybe we already do? I did a search and nothing came up...My apologies if I'm repeating!)
So this is the thread where we will name all of the things that we LOVE about ourselves! Have a hard time with love? Name the things you like! Have a hard time with like? Name the things you don't hate! I think you get the picture, right?
You can say the silliest little things that you love about yourself, or the great big things, too. Pretty much anything goes, but please, no negativity or sarcasm! The point is to have an honest thread about the things we genuinely love (or like) about ourselves!
In no particular order....(and in no way an exhaustive list!)
I LOVE that I find joy and happiness in the small things in life. Things that seem mundane or boring to other people really can bring a smile to my face or brighten my mood. I don't need a lot of fanfare or excitement. I don't need things that are over the top. I really do enjoy the simple things in life, and I am glad that I can find joy in these things.
I LOVE that I'm naturally blonde. Somehow the recessive genetic genes were in my favor as I'm the only one in my family of my generation (and even the previous generation, too) who has blonde hair. And that's on both sides, lol. (Maybe I was switched at birth!?!) Yep, I love my hair, long and golden blonde, I love how it gets me attention when I want it.
I LOVE that I have a very active inner child! Yep, love her! It makes me sad to know that other people have lost touch with their inner children. She has always been there, and she is SO much fun! Sometimes I think that others mistake my playful inner child for immaturity, but I don't care. My feet are firmly planted in reality and I'm very much grounded. I just love that I never lost my childlike sense of fun!
I LOVE that I got the awesomely-bad family nose! For years I used to say "oh, I'm glad I didn't get that honker!" and I'm sure the rest of my family looked at me like "uhm ok you're in denial!" But then one day I met my long lost cousin (she's 10 years older than me, we met about 9 years ago) and my aunt says "you two have the same nose!" It was my "proof" that we are family, and even though it isn't a Hollywood type nose, I love it just the same. Barbara Streisand is my hero....She knows if she got a nose job, she'd be unrecognizable and lose her fame. She's proud of what she's got and doesn't want to change it. I love that!
I LOVE that money doesn't mean beans to me! Ok, I know I need enough to live on, but beyond that, its meaningless. I have done a 180 from the half of my family who puts lots of stock into the almighty dollar and throws around money as a sign of approval. I think its kind of sad...
Ok, so this is my short list.....for now! I will be adding lots more later.
Please join in and start listing the things you love about yourself!
