10 things I like about Me

First, I would like to thank everyone that visited me yesterday! Boy was that fun! I really enjoyed each and every comment and I read every single one =) Thanks so much!!

Now I thought I would do something new. I'm going to list '10 things I like about Me'. Then I would like you to list '10 things you like about You', in My Comments. On Friday I will put each entry into a hat and I'll scoop out a winner! The prize is a Mystery (Even to me!! LOL).

Okay onto my list:

1. I like my eyes.
2. I like my hair.
3. I like my teeth (they are so straight!)
4. I love my sense of humor (I think I'm hilarious!!)
5. I like my hands.
6. I like my photographs.
7. I like my tenderness.
8. I like my sense of family.
9. I like my appetite!
10. I like my legs (they are so smooth. LOL)

Whew! That was hard. But I think it's necessary for us to look in the mirror, or into the monitor, and declare the things we like about ourselves. Everyone needs a confidence builder! Everyone needs to feel good about themselves. And it can be one of the hardest things to accomplish. Maybe this can help =) So come on! Share with me the things you like about yourself! I promise, you'll feel good after wards...

It is some much easier to come up with 10 things I don't like about myself. I was raised that if I focus on the things I like about myself, I will surely become more proud! It would be prideful to even speak about the things that I like. So here goes:

1.My perception - I usually think the best of people until proven wrong, and even then I try to build them up.
2. My eyes - light up like a Christmas tree when I see an old friend I've been told.
3. My hands - they cuddle, type, bake, cook, play piano, etc. etc. etc.
4. My feet - they've carried the load of me all my days
5. My hair - it is soft, grey and I look better with hair than without
6. My voice - I love to sing praises in harmony - nobody else might like it - but I do!
7. My smile - I can light up a room when I'm not down in the dumps!
8. My attitude - It's been tweaked and changed and perfected by HIM over the years and I kinda like it now! It's positive!
9. My openness - I can allow people into my space very easily - comes from working with seniors who just want to be cuddled sometimes.
10. My deep thinking - I love to search out the things of God and how HE is working in life.

I'm grateful for LIFE in HIM! Thanks for this creative idea!

What a great idea! Very thought provoking, too. Here goes:

1 - I like my caring nature.
2 - I like that I usually look for the good in people rather than the bad.
3 - I like that I find humor in the oddest things!
4 - I like that although I am aging (late 50's) I am NOT OLD!!! At least not in spirit or in attitude!
5 - I like that I'm fairly adventurous and not afraid to try things, like learning to ride a bike in my 50's!
6 - I like that I am a good cook, and that I enjoy cooking and entertaining for friends and family.
7 - I like that I can find something for which to be thankful even when times are tough.
8 - I like that I am trying to be a dutiful, caring, caregiving daughter to my elderly parents, even though sometimes they make it really hard.
9 - I like that I find it necessary to find joy wherever I can find it!
10 - I like that I my spiritual gifts are those of servant and encourager.

Blessings to you!!! Becky G. @ http://camelliacottagediary.blogspot.com
