heartmaters - personalllllll

Sometimes I struggle with my sense of self.
The way I choose to combat this is to write about myself, what I am, what I am good at... kind of like an ode.
I'm a little nervous to share this.
It is highly personal.
It kind of makes me sound like I think I'm a big deal, which I don't... this just helps me recognize who I am, and helps me try to find positive attributes within myself.
I am exceptionally hard on myself, some days are really bad days and doing this makes it better.

Here it goes... don't laugh.


I am a good listener, and a good friend.
I like helping other people, and making them feel better.

I have a ‘patient heart’, and good things will come to me.
Good people; deserve good things, and karma does work wonders.

I wear my heart on my sleeve.
I love openly and freely.

I will respect you until you do something to alter that respect.
I believe that everyone deserves a second chance.
I have hope and faith and optimism and these things make me who I am.

I am pleasant and awkward and approachable and people who have come to know me know that I will be there for them.
People who have come to know me call me up when they want to have a fun time, because they know I like to laugh.

I look for the best in others.
And everyday, even though it can be a challenge, I try to look for the best and find that strength in myself.

I don’t understand when people are unnecessarily cruel.

God loves me, I enjoy going to church.
And I pray and ask God questions when I am confused.
Most people don’t understand this relationship I have.
This relationship helps me to be good and kind and make positive choices.
Sometimes believing is harder than not believing.
But I believe just the same.
I need to.

I am a hard worker.
It frustrates me when I see smart, intelligent people throw away and waste opportunities.
I work hard at my relationships.
I work hard at school.
I work hard at work.
I pride myself in not being lazy.
Hard work pays off.

I want to make a difference.
I want to live my life in a way that I can be proud of and respect.
I am going to try and make the world a better place or die trying.
