10 things I really like about me

I am not trying to be conceited... I am not trying to be narcissistic... When I got sober, I knew only of things I hated about me, and there wasn't enough paper or pencils to collect them all. Sometimes it's a good exercise to list the things I truly like about me.

(these are not in any particular order)

I like...

1.) That I really enjoy helping others

2.) That I have a good sense of humor

3.) That I can laugh at myself when I remember not to take myself so seriously

4.) That I am a musician and a teacher

5.) That I trust my HP to take care of me

6.) That I am a pretty good dad, husband and mortgage guy

7.) That I feel so connected to God outdoors

8.) That I love to blog and read blogs

9.) That I love pizza and sex (and no dAAve, not at the same time, i know you're going to ask lol)

10.) That I ain't afraid to cry... that I can cry, for that matter...

ok, so there's 10 things I like about me! There was once a time I could never do that...

prayer...

God, thanks for making me the way You made me...

peace to y'all!

Really great list. Although you've got me perplexed about why you had to put sex and pizza in the same bullet point. Makes me wonder what kind of pizza...
