Qualities

Both good and bad, but definitely who I am, relational or not:

-impatient
-thoughtful ("detallista," in Spanish--a detailist)
-gentle
-serious
-worrisome
-impulsive
-creative
-COMPASSIONATE

(This last one struck me, while out drinking with Allison, as we were discussing the head of the organization where we both work--a woman loathed by most, including myself--and I realized that I feel bad for her. Even though I think she's earned all of the bad press and sentiment directed towards her, I still feel bad for her. It must suck to be so openly hated).

One Strength Per Day

As assigned by my counselor:

Saturday 3.12 - I am good with children

Sunday 3.13 - I am physically fit

Monday 3.14 - I am good at my job, a hard worker

Tuesday -

Wednesday - I take interesting pictures

Thursday 3.17 -

Friday 3.18 -

I obviously didn't do too well, and in the end, Jenny said that these were too "relational"--that they mostly had to do with other people and weren't necessarily qualities inherent in myself.
