lets get warm and fuzzy - from amarama and huskypapi

Amarama says "I am sick of all of my friends hating themselves! I know everyone is down on themselves because the world is bad and mean to all of us, a lot. However, I can think of a million things I love about everyone who is my friend. I'm going to write some things I love about myself, and then I want you all to reply with ten things you love about yourselves, too. Yes, it's a little like group therapy. However, you need to do it! Do it!"  I have to agree. Somehow this morning this feels like the hardest thing evr.

Things I love about my own self:

1. How much I care about people making and prioritizing their art.

2. My love of lakes.

3. The songs I am writing. It's a talent I didn't know I had and it feels like a huge gift.

4. My diplomacy and concern - honest concern - for other people's feelings

5. My rhubarb pie creations

6. My ability to drive and drive and drive and drive

7. My general desire to be kind to people

8. I can create a place that is homey and welcoming with two sticks and some dirt

9. I am a good friend with a lot of love in my heart regardless of my frequency of socializing or calling

10. i am a vicious protector of who and what i love

Now your turn!!
