Once you get this you have to answer with 5 things you like about yourself, publicly, then send this on to 5 of your  followers (non-negotiable, positivity is super cool!) ~ I’m gonna throw a “if you feel like it” in here lol

Tagged by @berriestart--lilacsweet <3 thanks for thinking of me :)

1. I'm really proud of my recent attempt to learn gardening! In the past, my many attempts were fairly depressing; I had no idea how unique each plants need was and what it actually required to grow. Since then, I've filled my entire house with both plants I've purchased and plants I grew from seed. Plus an entire outdoor garden.

That's only quarter of the collection.

2. I like my sense of humor, it's helped me overcome a lot of social anxiety issues that used to make it impossible to connect. Honing and evolving it over the years allows me to help others relax around me, which in turn helps me to relax and better navigate the convo. I love making people laugh, it's the best thing ever. I hope one day I'm remembered for making people laugh.

3. I suppose I like my hands, both aesthetically and what they help me do. I can scale climbing walls and still have the smooth hand needed for the sharpest cat eye liner and inking my artwork. My nails also grow super long so I like to point them >:D stiletto all the way.

4. I like being creative, I feel half my personality would be gone if I'd not been encouraged to be creative. Creativity helps me live a life full of beautiful things, it helps me come up with fun ideas and also create things that makes others happy. I love to draw, to paint, refurbish furniture, renovate and decorate houses, makeup, fashion, cosplay etc. All of which have a foundation in creativity and art, I'm thankful that my family helped harness and encourage my artistic interests. Its made my life a lot more fun and interesting.

5. I like, for the most part, my ability to empathize. I have a deep sense of empathy; while it often gets me hurt, for the most part I think it's an integral part of my character. It helps people connect with me and for me to better connect and help them. I'm uh, the mom friend. 600% mom, everyone is my babby and needs protecting and encouragement. I've also dealt with a lot of pretty severe health (mental and physical) ailments, so I can empathize more accurately with people who have similar struggles. I can better guess what they need so they don't need to ask.

Got bored again
