I figure it out as I go
I am a lazy perfectionist
I am a nomadic hobbyist
I am a social outcast
I burn bridges
I speak without thinking
I hate to be rushed
I am not always patient
I talk too fast
I cant dance
I'm shy
Compliments make me insecure
I may or may not be somewhat indecisive
I am ME
I am just the way God made me
I am made in the image of God
I am a child of God
I am a Wife
I am a Mother
I am a Daughter
I am an Aunty
I am a role model
I am loved
I am committed
I have faith
I Love
I believe
I am tough
I am dependent
I am an artist
I am a singer
I have passion
I am Maria-Isabel
Who are you?
Ah, now I know why I am so very drawn to you and your blog. I would say most of those things about myself, actually I think all of them except for the dancing. I have been working on the burning bridges and choosing words more wisely since November, about the same time I started blogging. With the help of my husband and mom I have grown in this area a lot. The best advice the hubs gave me was that no one really cares what I have to say because we are all selfish and just care about our own thoughts. It sounds really harsh, but I think that he may be right. So, I have been leaving my opinion out (and believe me I have PLENTY of them), and just letting people go along on their own way.
ReplyDeleteIt's no wonder you are my bloggy BFF. Aside from the aunty part (sad face) we are too much alike! Well, that and I can't sing.
ReplyDeleteThis is lovely! I wrote something similar last summer . . . but it took two full posts, ha! Hubs says that I can't say Hello in 3 words! True that ;)
ReplyDeleteThanks for dropping by! I haven't forgotten the giveaway, either!
I could have written almost all of this myself. I have been working on recognizing my own strengths and abilities rather than always comparing myself to others and feeling inadequate by comparison. I'm a work in progress, but striving to embrace myself every day for who and what I am now and not what I wish I could be. Thanks for re-sharing this post. :)
