I was looking for something in the dresser drawer when I came across this sheet of paper with something I had written not too long ago. I believe I got this exercise to do in a book I was reading. You have to write what things I feel good about myself and what things makes me unhappy about myself.

THIS IS WHAT I WROTE:

I feel good when I'm determined. I've got a goal and working my way toward it.

I feel good because because I have some level of awareness and understanding of things many people do not

It makes me feel special and unique.

I'm happy I've kept my childhood heart

I love my unassuming nature

And though unknown to many but me, I'm glad for my integrity.

I wish I knew of how to help the suffering man

Those things are bigger than I and I can't respond because in suffering I feel lost.

I look for answers and rarely find the ones that are good for me

As if my life were still on "HOLD" and nothing comfort me.

I love to learn, I love the time spent quietly to read, to think, to write and draw

These are my jewels for they proclaim what I can do that is so nice to see.

But most of all I wish I could enrich your life with mine -

And then again it's all I ask

If I do this then everything be fine.
