Thirty Things on Thursday - 14

Thirty Things on Thursday...

Today's Question: Describe 5 strengths you have.


Ugh. This is harder than the weaknesses!

Ok, let's see:

1 - I'm good with people. I enjoy them, I love talking to them, hearing their stories and finding all the cool nuggets inside each one of us that makes us special.  People usually warm up to me quickly and I can usually put them at ease.

2 - I am creative.  I love making stuff, gluing and cutting and taping.  I like looking at a blank page and figuring out what it's going to end up looking like.  I get such a thrill from it.

3 - I have a giving heart.  I love to buy things for people. Give things to people.  I feel like it's important to give back to my community and to my church.  I love to share things with people - the pictures I've taken of their families, homemade goodies, handmade cards - I love giving pieces of my heart away to others.

4 - I appreciate little things.  One of my pen pals put patriotic stickers on the back of the letter she sent me and I LOVED it. It touched me! I am so patriotic and that small touch just meant the world.  I love the stars on a dark night and admiring the amazingness of it all.  I take one point five million pictures of my drive to work because every day is something different.  Little things = awesome.

5 - I'm a good cheerleader.  I think I encourage people well. or I hope I'm not off the mark on that? Anyway, I enjoy helping people dream and reach for the dreams. I like supporting folks when they need just a bit of an extra dose of it, and seeing them succeed. It's awesome.

So yeah, that's me.  I do feel very awkward bragging on myself, if you call it that? Whatever - there you go! :)

  2. Appreciating little things is very important...I think many people would be a lot happier if they would stop and notice/consider simple joys more often.

    1. I totally agree, Robin. When life becomes overwhelming, I REALLY try to stop and see all the good and beautiful things surrounding me. :) It helps!
