I saw this somewhere (of course I forget where now) but it seemed like a good idea.

Look in the mirror and name 10 things you like about yourself. If you can't do 10...try 5. Find at least one thing to latch onto in nothing else.

So often we put ourselves down. We (me included) need to start replacing those negative thoughts with positive ones.

Here are my things I like about me:
1. I am kind to animals.
2. I enjoy my job. I am constantly trying to be a better teacher.
3. I went to school an extra year and got my masters degree.
4. I have a "soft heart". Sometimes it hurts, but it's better than being cold-hearted.
5. Family is more important than anything to me.
6. I always try to be a good friend. Sometimes I fail...but I always try.
7. I like my hair.
8. I laugh like a chipmunk...and I think its great.

Thats all I got. Now you try it.
