Things I Like About Me.........

One of my sorority sisters from Millikin recently posted a scrapbook page that she had made about the things she likes about herself and I personally think that all women need to do this. It is not meant to brag or boast but to affirm who we are and that we are "comfortable in our own skin". I am finding out the hard way that this is not an easy task and I am undertaking this publicly so maybe you can make your own list. OK, (deep breathe) here goes:

THINGS I LIKE ABOUT ME (in no particular order).
1. My hair. Don't ask me why but I have always liked my hair.
2. My voice. God gave me a talent and I use it everyday from singing to voice overs.
3. My ability to learn. I have a 4.o GPA and have had for the last couple of years.
4. My ability to multitask. I can feed the baby, make dinner, do the dishes and help my teenager memorize lines for his upcoming play, all at the same time.
5. My legs. When I workout they lean down first and look good!
6. My ears. They are great for listen when a friend really needs it.
7. My heart. It is big enough to love my family and others.

This is hard to do! We, as people, usually do not like much about ourselves at all. We, as women, are overly critical of our appearance, our hair, our clothes, our shape and our size but none of these truly matter if we are a good person and look past ourselves into the big world that we call home. My challenge is for you to make a list of the things that you like about yourself. Accept who you are; change what you can and be happy for the person that God has created you to be.
