Tell me, please

[pegkerr]

I've been asked to take stock of my resources, and in particular, to note all the things I am doing right. Not in the too distant past (yes, I wrote some good books, but that was several years ago). I'm talking about, within the past year.

Friends list, please tell me the things I am doing right. Lurkers, that includes you.

Right now, I need to hear that rather desperately.

You are an awesome mom who encourages her daughters to do non-traditional things, but also encourages them when they want to do traditional things (like Delia's cooking). You try to find them activities they will enjoy and improve at instead of just sticking them in front of the TV.

You are open and friendly. You share your life with us on your journal, which I find, and I believe other people find as well, inspiring and helpful.

You are honest about your struggles with depression which again is helpful and inspiring. Instead of withdrawing or giving up you ask for help. You reach out to people. You fight!

You do Karate!!! You can defend yourself. You are doing something that is difficult and you are trying to improve at it. I can barely get myself to do basic exercise and I'm in my 20s. You go to karate!!! You have a brown belt. That's so freaking awesome!!!

You are trying to improve yourself in multiple different ways. That is so impressive. Most people have no interest in improving themselves. You are very special in this respect and I admire that characteristic more than almost anything else.

::hugs:: You are a wonderful person, Peg. You do lots of things right.
