What Do You Most Like About Yourself?

Not open for further replies.
My therapist told me this morning that I seem "safe".

When I asked her about it, she said that there is something about me that makes her (and possibly other people) feel that I'm not going to hurt her.
 
My desire to research. I don't take information at face value; I have to find my own answers. It seems like obstinacy to others, but that is the only way I will accept anything.
 
It took a while to think this one over. I like my ability to bring out emotion in my writing and my art in such a way that others feel it as well. Finding out that I was able to bring out all kinds of emotions in my writing means a lot to me for it means that others can relate or understand the emotions I was trying to portray.

So that is what I like about myself the most.

4. I am one of the top employees at my both jobs, and was a such at almost all my previous jobs.
5. I came to the US without a penny in my pocket, without a single English phrase in my head, and have a college degree and can support myself now. Yes, and I earned my B.A. in biology and chemistry as a full-time student and while working full-time.
6. I am a hard worker.
7. I am unbreakable.
 
.................This get's a little bit tricky in that I like these things about myself, but how can I like them most about myself? It would seem that there are only a few things one could like most about themselves, otherwise it would no longer me favored and mostly liked. (LOL)

These are things which I like about myself:

I'm a good person.

I'm bright in a few specialized areas of interest to me.

I'm no fool.

I'm generally very aware, observant and have great attention and memory recall to detail.

Far more often than not, I have been and still am able to feel empathy and compassion deeply.

I am genrally able to look at something from many angles and points of view.

I mostly value the principle of Win/Win and consider it often while putting it into action and striving for improvements in reaching and consistently living up to this pers. value.

I can be be both a follower and leader. I'm fitted well for both roles, and for a period of time. And, I'm flexible in most cases and can accomodate others.

.................(Only after many signs of pers. abuse toward me, or those I love, with a re-occuring theme of 'Hooray for me and fk you attitude.' I admit I do cease to become flexible for a period of time, and, will seek to and lead the abuser or (s) to eat their very indifference and attitude.) Pardon me for this brutal honesty here, but I can't let this thread get soft and to mushy. (LOL) .........Quite clearly this is something that I don't like about myself.

But, what I do like about myself is I earnestly value truth, change and a willingness to learn, educate and grow, mental health, character building, a continuing goal of self-improvement, sifting, sorting through pers. trauma messes, my own pers. wreckage and rectifying it all.

I'm slowly pinpointing and elimating other people's values and convictions, which have both been imposed upon me and which I've taken on in order to please and re-discovering my very own; Those of which were mine for many yrs., (and which I've taken many a beaten for and once held firmly unto.) ~Another Chance !

Hope
 
  1. Most people that would take advantage of me are now too afraid of me to do so.
  2. I know what true love is.
  3. I'm a better driver than most people my age.
  4. I have good taste in music of various genres.:music:
  5. I know what true evil is.
  6. I am no longer a pervert. :dont-know
  7. My ordeals have given me strong empathy.
  8. I am strong enough to protect what, and who, I believe in.
  9. I do not live in fear of any person or object.
 
I really like that I can get back up and I'm ready for life and risk again and my experience of faith and hope, while all along stronger than before; I like that I can do so quickly, and nearly as abruptly as I fell and/or got knocked on my ass, in the first place, from both life and certainly my PTSD.
