2. I can follow a recipe and get compliments on the final product.
2. I rock at Trivial Pursuit.
3. I'm pretty smart (and smart-alecky).

I have a lot of patience now, even with myself!
I am learning new things and seeing life a different way.
In the morning, I have breakfast w/my child, kiss him good-bye, hop on my bike and cycle down to the high school track, run a couple miles, greet anyone who is doing it too, head home and feel great because I am finally taking care of myself because I really do matter!
I am creative.
I love to laugh and can flirt again!!! Thought that was gone for good.

Wow!! this thread was EXACTLY what I needed today. Thank you, thank you, thank you whoever started it. I had a setback today - all be it minor, it was still a set back. Reading all these positive things really made me take stock in what I HAD, and what I WAS, not what I didn't do right.
You are all amazing and you can all add "helped someone out on a bad day" to your list
Thanks again!

Great Idea! I should really look at this daily. I usually feel pretty good after seeing so many videos in World Issues class (hardest hitting was a 15 year old girl beaten, divorced and thrown out, living on hte streets of calcutta, all because her bracelet snagged in her husbands hair.) but sometimes you just need that extra little push to see how much there is to appreciate.
