I keep coming across writings that say to do this kind of thing, to make a list of things I like about myself....so here goes nothing.
1: I look younger than l am. I'm in my early 20s, but most people guess I'm 10-15 when they first meet me. Like I'm just some cute harmless little geeky hippie girl.
2: I sound older and more mature/sophisticated than I actually am. When people speak with me over the phone, or don't assume I'm a cute little girl, they think I'm 25-30 and ask what my college major was. My only "degree" is in protesting the modern education system.
3: I'm highly intelligent. In SOME ways. Although I used to be extremely arrogant about it, and I certainly still can be at times, I've come to the conclusion that EVERYONE is smart in their own way. I just happen to be the more blatantly obvious nerdy "book-smart" type.
4: I have an amazing memory. Which is both a blessing and a curse, because there are some things I'd rather not remember. Everything I see and hear is stored in my brain as a sticky web of synchronicity. Aside from struggles with name-face recognition, my awesome memory is the root of most of my "intelligence".
5: I'm also a very artsy-craftsy individual. There are few things I can't make on my own, from lye to vinegar, batteries to turbines, chocolate, toothpaste, rucksacks, distillers, greenhouses, jewelry, picture frames, chewing gum, adhesive tape....When I see something at the store that interests me, I rarely consider just buying it. I think "How could I make that?" instead.
6: My senses of smell and hearing are pretty sharp. Not like a dog, but enough to hear or smell a fart from across the house. I guess they compensate for my horrible near-sightedness.
7: My "moral code" is pretty strict. But I put "moral" in quotes, because some folks may strongly disagree. I have a very earth-centric misanthropist philosophy. While openly polite and modest, I have a deep interest in the "taboo" and "primal", and I live as a cavewoman out in the woods. When I'm not in town "family-sitting".
7: I'm a complete teetotaller and in a happy loving relationship with another teetotaller. I haven't drank alcohol in almost 5 years, my boyfriend has only ever drank water his entire life, and neither of us have taken an aspirin, Tylenol, Benadryl, cough syrup, antibiotic, or Tums in over a decade. If God didn't make it, we won't take it.
8: I'm very strong-willed. I might not be very big, or particularly physically powerful, but most folks simply give up fist-fights with me because I WON'T give up. They throw me against the wall, I just stand back up and laugh at them. I've been punched in the head so many times but never knocked out.
9: I'm agile, flexible, and skinny. But being skinny is NOT as great as people think it is! I'd rather be slightly "overweight" than underweight any day, because I feel so much healthier with some fat on my bones. I'll take what I can get though.
10: I see dead people. And the future. And the past, assuming time is even that linear. I think everything that ever "was" or "will be" just IS. I can feel life and love flowing through everything, and I have such an intense bond with every creature I come across. Cats, dogs, snakes, slugs, plants, mushrooms, soil, rocks, fire....All are alive and I love them all. Except for other humans; they all try to separate the world into "people" and "animals", and I just can't see past that anthropocentric arrogance. I seriously bond more with corn seeds than other humans.

Enjoy the moment- experience life instead of just thinking about it.
