I am going to try a list of 10 good things about myself.
I am dedicating this 10 to someone who helped me to recognise 3 qualities in myself that I would normally bury under piles of self-loathing. (He/she knows who he/she is).
1. I'm understanding
2. I'm intuitive
3. I'm observant
4. I'm kind
5. I'm loving
6. I'm sensitive
7. I'm supportive
8. I'm caring
9. I'm humorous
10. I'm knowlegeableSabrina
(Phew! OK, I got stuck around no. 7 and it took me ages to think up the rest)

This is always a good exercise. I started out the New Year by writing one good thing I liked about myself each day, but that seems to have slipped by the wayside.
1. I am intelligent
2. I wink at old people
3. I am a good listener
4. I am a good dancer
5. I am kind hearted
6. I am very adaptable
7. I make everyone feel comfortable
8. I am generous
9. I have nice hands
10.I am open minded - I can see and argue both sides of an issue

1. I'm hard-working
2. I'm responsible
3. I recognize that I am human, thus fallible
4. I'm loving
5. I'm supportive (okay, pushy, sometimes)
6. I attempt always to be respectful in my relationships with others.
7. I'm a decent singer
8. I'm a nature lover
9. I'm being brave by working on a relationship
10. I'm a work in progresssounds a little lame, I know, but the most positive thing about this list is that I'm able to recognize these things now.

1. I loved all the other 10's
2. I care
3. I love
4. I am kind
5. I am supportive
6. I love to grow beyond all my pain
7. I am a great cook
8. I feel I have a purpose
9. I love being an artist
10. I am pretty
that last one was hard.
All my life I have thought I was fat and not that great looking.Well I have looked at old photos and guess what I was knock out....
beautiful.
Yah okay....
but I always felt so bad inside that looking beautiful on the outside was a challenge.
So I am now more beautiful inside and the outside...
well I am 57 so...
I guess I have to give up the beauty thing for other values.
but it was nice to say I am pretty.
life is such a challenge.
