Threads around here can sometimes be so bleak and negative. To mix it up a bit and to take some time to reflect on the positives:
1. What do you tend to be doing at the times when you feel happiest?
2. Which of your gifts mean the most to you? Which feel most like "you"?
3. What do you love about yourself?
4. What do others love about you?
5. What are you really good at?
6. What really matters to you enough that you are willing to sacrifice for it? Friendship? A partner/child? Creative work? Inner peace? Helping people? Getting the truth?
My answers:
1. Snowboarding, eating my favorite foods, spending time with my husband/family/friends.
2. Books.
3. Optimism, hopefulness, resilience, creativity, sense of humor.
4. Generosity, support, warmth, love, humor, understanding, patience.
5. My job, cooking parmesan asparagus, listening, making people laugh.
6. My husband, family and friendships.
