five things meme

Tagged by [livejournal.com profile] dolnmoon
When you get this you have to say 5 nice things about yourself publicly, then tag 10 of your friends!

HMMM!

1) I can recognize and forgive my own faults, usually

2) I have a few diverse talents - art, writing, guitar & singing (I was the lead singer in a band for awhile lol), maths and sciences (though it's been a while since I've put those into practice)

3) I help foster feelings of community, openness, creativity and enthusiasm

4) I am smart. S-M-R-T!

5) I look about ten years younger than I am


I'm actually kind of bad at these "list good things about yourself" memes, lol. Does this still count if I don't tag anyone? I don't want to pressure anyone, so do this if you like. It gave me a bit of a boost today, so I'm glad [livejournal.com profile] dolnmoon tagged me :)

recognizing one's faults and forgiving them, is a wonderful talent to have.

You are an amazing person and I keep finding new things out about you every year.. It will only take us another 20yrs of friendship to find them all out. lol Lead singer in a band..... that explains a lot when you sang for us in LS that time. \0/

I want your youthful appearance now I am totally jealous of you.. lol I look in the mirror and think.. where did this old lady come from. lol

You are a mentor to fandom.. we all love the fact that we can express our love and openness without judgment within your ls and with you in general. You keep us going, creating and enthusiastic.

I am glad you were happy to be tagged.. I worry and tbh, I tagged those I like a lot because you all popped into my head right away. lol You're towards the end because I wasn't sure you'd even see it.. but glad that you did. <3

It has taken some time, and years of therapy, and growing older, to be able to start forgiving my own faults. I'm still working on it, but it makes living much easier.

In 20 years I won't have my youthful appearance anymore, if my mom is any clue, lol. But for now, it helps that I'm of Cherokee lineage... my cheeks are baby cheeks. It also helps that I dont get out in the sun very often, and when I do, I use bucketloads of sunscreen, lol.
