Daily notes and timed freewrites but mostly my blog |
Prompt: What is your favorite thing about you? What makes you worth knowing? A prompted free write attempt on this Easter Sunday afternoon. Of course, first and foremost I'm a likable person. Just ask anyone. I dare you! Okay, enough kidding around. What is my most favorite thing about me? That's a tough question. There are so many things about me I like. HA HA And what makes me worth knowing? This question is easier for me to answer than the first one. When I develop a friendship with another person, I'm loyal if not completely steadfast. I'm honest about my affections and not a needy person to be friends with. In fact, I may be a bit too independent for some of my friends and family. I don't have a wide variety of friends, as I'm a loner by nature. Deep friendships are pretty much absent from my life; however, if I call you family, then you are stuck with my believing I'm your friend for life. The only exception to this is if a love relationship, or sexually intimate relationship supercedes a friendship; then, when such comes to an end, so too does any form of friendship or chance of friendly relationship. When I give my love, I give all my heart. When my love is then rejected, there is nothing more to feel for that person than the pain of a torn heart. It seems counter intuitive, but this is something I also like about myself. Others, most being my ex-lovers, don't like this about me. But, I will never prefer to remain close friends with someone who betrayed me in my most vulnerable moment. What is my most favorite thing about me? There's that question again. Hmmm. I think my love of nature and the outdoors, competes with top honors with my love of writing. I'd be lost within myself if I had to choose between the two. These two personal loves go hand in hand and many times each one inspires the other. After a bout of successful writing, I find myself either walking outside, or working in the dirt with my plants. Or after a stint in the woods, hiking by a creek, and/or fishing I find myself writing. Both loves keep me sane, and though a bit over rated, my friends and family like me better when I'm sane. |
