AM I......

* generous?  I think I am a pretty generous person. When I have something to give, whether it be material things, my time, or whether it be to help someone out, or just be there to listen, I always try do whatever it takes.

* empathetic?  I don't know anyone more empathetic than me. When someone is in distress or pain, such as getting hurt, or losing a loved one, I feel so much pain for them. I actually feel like I am in there shoes going through exactly what they are going through. It's hard to explain the strangest feeling that runs through me when someone just as much as cuts themselves or even gets seriously hurt. It's not like the feeling most people get when they have a week stomach, and their stomach feels upset, but it's more like I can feel their physical and mental pain. It's pretty intense!

*  patient?  Yes and no! I have tonnes of patience for people. I've had the experience of dealing with alot of different kinds of  people, some good, and some not so good. I always wished I'd have taken some classes on psychology, because human behavior has always fascinated me. I've learnt to have patience for alot of different kinds of people. But, as like everyone, we always have our limit as to how much one can take before your patience runs thin. I am very well known for giving people chance after chance before I realize there is no point to trying to help someone anymore. Now, when it comes to having patience for things such as sitting in a line at a drive-thru waiting for my order, or sitting in an audience waiting for the show to begin, my patience is thin. When my stomach is growling because I'm hungry or my butts getting sore from sitting too long, I just want everything to happen now! :)

*  forgiving?  Yes, I'd say I am forgiving. I give people many chances to prove themselves, even if they've hurt me time and time again. Sometimes it may take me awhile to forgive them, because I tend to put a guard up, and I get very defensive, but I do eventually forgive, but I never forget. Something I need to work on...holding a grudge.

* dreamer?  Absolutely! I've spent my whole life dreaming. My dream as a little girl was to one day find a prince who would marry me and make me so happy. Many times I get caught staring off into a distance and someone is always asking if I'm ok or if something is bothering me. Nope, just usually thinking of something wonderful. I don't just dream for me, I dream of things I hope for my kids and for my family and friends. Some of the dreams I've had are owning a corvette, learning how to ride a horse without fear, having 4 children, owning my own business, riding in a hot air balloon, seeing the pyramids, and well this one is a little unrealistic, but owning my very own pet kangaroo! (lol)

*  caring?  I'm a caring person. I wish I had more time to spend with the ones I Love. I also wish I had more time to volunteer to make others lives better. But for now, when I can, I offer good advice and am good at listening or giving hugs when someone is feeling down. Everyone knows that they can call me whenever they need someone to talk or someone to help them through something. I'm busy, but never too busy that I can't take time out of my day to help people out.

*  supportive? Yes, I am pretty good at supporting other peoples ideas and beliefs, but I also like to give some advice once in awhile too. Sometimes when someone is struggling with a decision, I like to open their minds to other alternatives or suggestions. It helps them to see things from a different perspective or point of view. But in the end, no matter what their decision, I will support them, no matter what.

*  errogant?  No! One trait in people that I can't stand! My skin crawls at the sound and sight of an errogant person. Sorry, but nobody is perfect and we all make mistakes. Not only that but we all have things to work on with our character. We should all be striving to be a better person each day, in different aspects, especially when it comes to how we treat others. So nobody should be walking around thinking they are better than anyone else.

*  controversial?  I hate controversy. I've never liked being put in a position where I have to fight about something, or in a situation where others are doing it in front of me. I feel very weak which in turn causes me to give up very easily. Arguing and fighting over stupid petty little issues, makes me feel like I can't breath sometimes. Life is too short to spend it bickering over nothing.

*  emotional?  Of course I am. (lol). I cry at weddings, baby showers, graduations. So pretty much anything that brings me tears of happiness, which is the result of seeing others happy or going through a very important period in their lives. As well, I cry at funerals, saying farewell, and when others are in  pain. Not good with seeing others go through difficult times in their life, or when someone is going away for a period of time.

*  insecure?  Was more insecure when I was younger, but am still working on some of my insecurities. I still show some signs such as being defensive when I feel attacked; being a bit materialistic; can't take compliments well; tend to apologize alot because I'm self-doubting; and I'm prone to nervous laughter. (that will probably never go away though...haha).

*  happy?  More often than not, I am a happy person. I like to have fun, sometimes a little too much, and I love to smile and laugh. I do have my moments when things are going wrong, or not as planned, as I'm sure everyone can relate, but for the most part I'm a pretty happy person. Sometimes I get asked if I'm ok because I'm not always smiling, but it's usually only because I'm daydreaming or have alot of stuff on my mind, but it doesn't mean I'm not happy.

Hope you enjoyed this blog. Some who know me well, you may agree with my descriptions of things about my character. For those who don't know me as well, I hope you enjoyed a little more insight as to who I am.
