This meme comes from [livejournal.com profile] awelkin.

She wrote:

"There are two rules. First of all, you must list 10 good things about yourself. Yes, ten. If you can't think of ten, you must try harder. And you can't put yourself down. Throw modesty and low esteem to the wind! They can be about anything, as long as it's good about yourself. Sure, you're not perfect, but don't you give your flaws more than their fare share of time? Time to do something nice for yourself! And it's gotta be about you, not someone you know, or something you have.

Okay, got your 10? The second part. If you borrow the meme, you respond, and say something positive about me. Then I go search out your meme in your live journal and respond to your list. The response can be something new or cool that you admire about the person, or something that responds to one of the positive qualities they say about themselves. "


I saw this in the LJ's of [livejournal.com profile] awelkin and [livejournal.com profile] sff_corgi. So: [livejournal.com profile] awelkin is very inspiring, because she has overcome great odds to become the person she is, and [livejournal.com profile] sff_corgi is very patient. [livejournal.com profile] molly_mcgonagall is strong and uses her problems as a source of growth, not as an excuse, while [livejournal.com profile] themorningstarr is an amazing ball of energy. [livejournal.com profile] queenriley is kind and determined.

Not dumb! Devestatingly intelligent is more like it. You are so much smarter than "not dumb". And what's with the "MAY turn out to be a good masseuse"? There is no may about it, you'll be a good masseuse.

How about: wise, spiritual, thoughtful? Your presence, even virtually, is calming and thought-provoking. You are resilient.

I'll add one for you

Okay, "not dumb" doesn't count as a positive thing! Say that you're SMART!

Methinks you missed the part about throwing modesty out the window. >_<

How about "highly intelligent," inspiring, and soothing... yes. I think those fit.

I'd add a good friend into that. You are never judgemental and I am so SO glad I've got to know you in real life.

Sending hugs and wishes for a wonderful 2004. You're a good person and deserve things to be better for you than they have been lately! That's not a snappy soundbite either - I mean it :p

She kicks ass - I love reading her journal because it prods me to think about the world, and to care about someone I've not yet met... She comes across as being an intelligent woman, who has her vulnerabilities, but would be a great person to have as a friend in a non-virtual way.

How about 'generous with her wealth of knowledge and willing to extend herself'?

Well, I gacked the meme in the end from someone else, but I want to say something nice about you nevertheless...

You are a lovely person who is a wonderfully intelligent conversationalist. I like talking to you over Y!M because you always make me think. *hugs*

The 'not dumb' comment got me. Now that's an understatement, dear :)

You have a wonderful ability to persuade people and you sure can organize things. And that's just like side abilities compared to your giving and kind nature. :)

'Not dumb' is most definitely an understatement!

What about 'willing to be honest'? That's a very good trait :-)

Have a good journey tomorrow!

Maria, I salute your honesty and modesty, but really, just let it rip! You are one of the hardest people on yourself I know. I know this because I'm pretty hard on myself. :)

So I guess what I would say is Percival constantly strives for improvement, which can be a good thing.

not dumb?!

LOL!! That's the understatement of the century, woman!

I would add - meticulous, methodical, great attention to detail, conscientious. All derived from the way you have shunned the shortest route to scraping through the massage qualification, and set yourself to do the thing properly.

BTW, wanted you to know in regards to the 'patience' thing -- [livejournal.com profile] luminaraunduli has been waiting for me to send her some blank CDs since... oh... summer? And I finally posted the box today. ^_^ Just in time for it to sit around on a national holiday....

You totally ROX. I agree with the others who have commented, you are definitely more than "not dumb." You are also willing to lend others your strength. *hugs*
