It's funny how we see all the bad things about us, but rarely celebrate the best parts of ourselves.
So come out and celebrate. What's the best thing about you?

Great question! Thank you for asking it!
I don't know if it's my best trait, or just one that I particularly like in myself, but I admire how determined I am. I work hard at the things that matter to me--at work, in my community, on my bike, in relationships, and perhaps most importantly, in my own personal and emotional growth. I grew up in an very unhappy home and decided a while ago that, whatever it took, I would make my own life work for me. Each year, I get a little bit better at fully actualizing that. And let me tell you, the better you are at loving yourself, the better you are at loving others. It's a win/win.
I'm proud of me.
What about you, Veronica?
Live with intention. Walk to the edge. Listen hard. Practice wellness. Play with abandon. Laugh. Choose with no regret. Continue to learn. Appreciate your friends. Do what you love. Live as if this is all there is.

I am fiercely loyal and just plain fierce......I am a good teacher, I was a good daughter and a good friend. Loyal to the end...better than a dog!
This is a great thread, V! It's good to remember the good things about who we are, and I need to be reminded of that sometimes.
I'm starting a journal where at the end of each day I'll list 3 good things that happened. That way I can focus on the good, and try not to dwell on the bad.
The BEST thing about me physically are my legs. They are bigger/heavier than I'd like them to be, but they are defined and strong, and my calves are nice.
The BEST thing about me as a person is that I've got a big heart, and I can make most people laugh (mostly I make myself crack up- but I'm someone, huh?).![]()

My close friends seem to appreciate that I shoot straight. I think they know to ask for advice only when they really want it because they won't hear sugar coating. They all say I give great advice, funny thing is I think it is terrible!
I am also a good cookie maker and try hard to be thoughtful and remember my family in everything.

I'm a really good student--I like to listen hard and work hard at using what I hear and see to get better. And I really like learning new things.
