The challenge here for me is to come up with things that I like about myself, personally. Not just things I do or have done. Reminds me of the quote "We're supposed to be human beings, not human doings." But i may have to cheat some to get to 100. I don't think there are 100 things I like about myself. ANYHOW...

18. I've memorized and can quote a lot of good poetry. One of my favorites is "Invictus." "Out of the night that covers me/ Black as a pit from pole to pole/ I thank whatever gods may be/ For my unconquerable soul..."
19. I have pretty hands (which are currently stained black from a project! Not very attractive.)
20. My nails grow like crazy and I never have to use false ones.
21. Although I wasn't pure in H.S. or college, at least I never cheated on my boyfriends. I've been faithful to my husband for 15 years.
22. I pray for people. I hope it's comforting for them, even if they don't believe in God or share my religion, to know that someone is out there interceding for them and beaming positive thoughts of strength and healing to them. Personally, I believe God hears my prayers and helps people, so it's my way of helping people I can't be with or touch otherwise.
23. I am punctual. Which reminds me... got to go!

While thinking about my list I found that I like many of my bad habits and qualities o.o Should I write those down nontheless or will that just reinforce the bad stuff?

14. I have practiced Skepticism so much that it has almost become the second nature of my thinking. I like how it feels to be effortlessly analytical.
15. I just realised that I can be embarrassingly competitive when it comes to displays of 'intelligence' and wittiness; because now I can work on disarming this part of me and become more independent.
16. I can be very childlike; taking a walk with me will take hours if you let me have my way - I stop at every bird, insect, flower, puddle, fungus etc. to look at it, play with it, revel in all the sensations and spin stories in my mind.
17. I made a thread that many people seem to find useful :)

Reading all the positive things people are coming up with about themselves makes me smile every time I come to this thread, and gives me hope :)

25. I'm resilient.
26. I'm passionate and intense.
27. I don't take shit from anyone. (I'm ignoring the niggling, vicious voice that's telling me "but you have before". Shut up. I never did before him, and I never will again).
28. I make great coffee.
29. I'm creative.
30. I can knit and crochet and sew.
31. I can change the tyres on my car (well, I could pre-injury).
32. I'm a great listener.
