		<description>Wow, what a great idea for a theme-month!

1. I love that, when I put my mind to something, I can do pretty much anything (from enjoying running to going back to school).
2. I love my ability to quote random movies and books, even if no one else gets it.
3. I love the person I am becoming.
4. I love that I can cook.
5. I love my singing voice.</description>

		<description>I&#039;m copying Margo&#039;s #3. :)

1. I love that I am so happy-go-lucky and can use my sense of humour to get me through most anything. 
2. I love that I have a real talent for being organized, which has resulted in flawless closets at home, flawless events at work, and an ability to keep it together and take care of things when a crisis hits. 
3. I love how I’ve learned (and am still learning) how to listen to people, and that I’ve had the privilege of being people’s confidants, and that when asked for advice, am able to be objective and caring.
4. I love that I am not afraid to say &quot;no&quot; when being asked to take on more than I can reasonably handle, resulting in greater respect from people and less resentment and stress on my part. 
5. I love that I subscribe to a &quot;live-and-let-live&quot; philosophy. If other people&#039;s choices make them happy, and they&#039;re not hurting anybody else, I refuse to make their choices my business, which has resulted in my being a much happier and open-minded person.</description>

		<description>I just copied your number 1.  Since we&#039;ve cooked together, I think that&#039;s appropriate. *G*

1: I love that I am an excellent cook. It feels good to feed people well, including myself.

2: I love that I kept my sense of humor even at my most depressed.

3: I love that I am responsive to touch.

4: I love that I am brave.  It took courage to be out after dark the night after I was mugged.  There are other things I can point to as well.  

5: I love that I&#039;ve been told I&#039;m a good kisser. *G*</description>

		<description>This is a great idea - Twistie, your weekend posts are always so inspiring.

1. I love my hands, they&#039;re my Mum&#039;s &amp; my Uncle&#039;s hands, and I hope I do them proud by working them as hard as they have. 
2. Now and then, just occasionally, I say the exact right thing at the exact right time. I love that.
3. I love how I&#039;ve learned (and am still learning) how to listen to people, and that I&#039;ve had the privilege of being people&#039;s confidants. 
4. I&#039;m often a really good gift-giver, and I love hearing that someone has really enjoyed what I&#039;ve made for them
5. I love that I have developed such a cool relationship with my wonderful parents</description>

		<description>Always a good idea to do this once in awhile...

1. I love that I have sacrificed a potentially bigger paycheck to work in a job on policies that will help people be healthier. It helps me stay motivated to get out of bed in the morning.
2. I love that I have never been afraid to be smart around boys - and it is finally paying off with a wonderful guy.
3. I love my reputation for being able to find the cutest ballet flats. I think I have 10 pairs...
4. I love that I have always been so resilient
5. I love all the pieces of personality I have taken from members of my family, and the wonderful collage that has resulted!</description>
