Five positive things you could tell others about yourself.
I try to be a pretty positive thinking and after reading the five things that others don't know about you, I was hoping this would be a way of people looking for good qualities in themselves.
1. I am so proud that at 55 I just started jogging, and love it.
2. I have been married for 25 years and have never been unfaithful.
3. I have been a vegan for 30 years and have never ate meat or been tempted to during all that time.
4. I taught my youngest daughter to play the piano and now she is playing Beethoven at 7 years old.
5. I support a medical missionary in Africa who teaches large groups about becoming vegan, avoiding aids and healthful living.
All that sounds pretty lame to me and a little like bragging but I thought I should say something since I started this thread. Hopefully someone can do better than me.
1. I am intelligent and I believe that I am a well rounded person.
2. I am funny, I make people laugh. But the fact of the matter is, I'm in love with laughing uncontrollably (sp?). I laugh hard at least once a day, and like to have people around me laughing too!
3. I can organize like crazy, too. I can solve any situations even when under pressure, especially when under pressure, and panic very seldomly.
4. I don't take myself too seriously, life is too short and there's a french saying that goes like this "Le ridicule ne tue point." That's my motto. (Anybody knows what the equivalent of that saying would be in English?
5. I am a very positive person, but not in a naive way. I just don't believe in wallowing in my own misery, that's a waste of time, and like I said, life is way too short for that. There are times to cry, times to get over it and times to smile again!
1) I took a leap from my original life plans after college in order to do something to help kids who are failed by our education system. It's way harder than I expected, and I do not believe I am a great teacher. But I do think I am instilling my kids with a sense of self-worth by loving them unconditionally every day. They know that no matter how badly they mess up, they can come in the next day and I will still love them and think they are worth my time. They are so dear to me.
This.
I've been thinking about my five. I have to come back later and finish. KMK, you are gonna be at the CA gathering right? I can't wait to meet you! :flower:
Not to mention that your avatar + subnick totally rock! :)>>>

Hellz yeah! It will be great to meet my sister-from-another-mother! :flower2:
Let's see...most of these, I just need to remind myself from time to time.
1. I am a good flute player, but an awesome piccolo player. F'reals.
2. My brain can learn whatever I want it to learn.
3. I'm a very faithful friend.
4. ?
5. ?
Let me get back to you.

Oh c'mon sis! Don't give us that. I can think of a billion. A billion might be excessive, because that's extreme, but..a lot.
Ok, I am determined to do this!
1. I am ALWAYS working and striving for growth.
2. I am able to be there for my friends and family when they need me.
3. I take care of myself emotionally, physically, intellectually, and spiritually.
4. I am amazing at gift giving.
5. I am truly happy about the person I have become.
:)>>>
No, I thought I had five, but the other two left me whilst I was typing. I WILL get back you.
This has been a great read. Thanks it made my day.
I want to participate in this beautiful thread. But right now, all I got is...
1: :(
2: :-X
3: :o
4: :-\
5: ???
Rly sry.
Okay, gang, let's all come up with Heli's five!
1. Heli has an excellent, quirky sense of humour.
2. Heli is very kind and supportive.
3. Heli is very intelligent and awesome.
I could go on, but somebuddy else chip in!
4. Heli is extremely thoughtful, genuine, and open.
5. Heli makes beautiful jewelry.
6. Heli is beautiful!
HELI, now you have to write your five....with five that we haven't said! :-*
Ok, so I will try to redeem myself from the other '5 random things about you' thread, since I had let myself write some more engative things on that one. What a great idea printerguy!
1. I am a very faithful girlfriend. I've been with Alban for 8 years (and 2 kids later), we are not married, but I feel at this point that a peice of paper is not needed for us to prove our love. And I've never cheated.
2. I am a loyal friend. I would do anything for my friends.
3. I love outdoor adventure. I learned to scuba dive and the next thing I want to do is rock climbing.
4. I am very creative.
5. I am a very good cook/baker.
printerguy, welcome back from your break! what a great thread
hmmm, this is tough, but I'll try:
1) I think I have a good sense of humour. I love to laugh and I love to make other people laugh - and I seem to be good at it too.
2) I can cook well. In fact I think I am an awesome cook.
3) I put myself through A Levels & university. I moved out of home when I was 17 and started A levels at 19 (3 years later than is normal). My parents refused to help me financially and told me that I was making a huge mistake by giving up my full time job in a shop to go back to college with the aim of going to uni. They both now deny this and are so proud that I made it through uni with good grades.
4) I have an extremely good work ethic. No matter what job I have had I have been one of the best at it. This includes shelf filling, bar work and beinng a pharmacist. I am very dilligent at work and always try my best - even if others round me don't give a shit.
5) I can't think of another - this is tougher than it looks... I will think about it and get back to you!
:iloveyou: (((yabbit & AC))) Thanks and apologies... I was feeling a bit drunk and maudlin last night. ::)
1: I'm loyal.
2: I'm sensitive. Some might say soft-hearted... I guess I would, too... but it means I care about people, and things.
3: I have a passion for organic growing and sustainability, and aspire to put these ideas into practice, for the good of the earth.
Um... *scratches head*...... Oh, okay -
4: I learned what I know of HTML and CSS slowly, bit by bit, and ended up knowing enough to make a spiffy website layout.
5: I'm never rude to people, even those I don't like. I don't hardly know how.
See that wasn't so hard! ;)b
