What’s your favorite thing about yourself?
Probably the thing that I like the most about myself is my empathy for my fellow humankind and my resilience to be strong and bounce back from the challenges of my life.
My friends all tell me I am a strong, positive, optimistic force to be reckoned with, and my psychiatrist expresses what a strong, positive, and resilient person I am. When life throws curve balls at me, I stop and think and pause before I throw the curve ball right back. I never let anything get me down for too long, and in the words of The Beatles, I have learned to just “Let It Be.” I only work on the things I do have control over and actually change, and I don’t ruminate and worry about the things I can’t change. I try to be calm and not reactionary.
