What do you like about yourself? What is your best feature?

(I say mine is my arm pits, shaving takes one swipe of a razor and thats it. I can count how few armpit hairs grow under my arms and it is the strangest thing but this is why i love my pits!)

I really like my hair. It's really fine and feels like silk, but I have a lot of it, so it's really think and it's naturally wavy. All I have to do to it in the morning is wash it, dry it roughly with a towel, and then run my fingers through it. The I'll comb it lightly once it's dry, That way it stays really boucy and shiney all day.

Well, my immediate response was nothing. But, if I think about it...My smile and eyes. When I smile my eyes sparkle.

lol I like my eyes I must confess. I just didn't realize it. My twins have my eyes and I used to say to tell them how much I loved their eyes, and my husband pointed out that they have my eyes.... Hey! I guess I love my eyes.

Yes, but we already know you're on a roll, Balish Your best feature Armpits can be nice though I think; my college roommate use to put lotion on her elbows because she didn't like them and wanted a better relationship with them :-)

I guess I'll go with my husband's answer, my smile.

Ain't nuffin wrong wiff luvin your pits...you go girl! Your best feature

After much deliberation on this question of yours, I would have to say that I think my hands are my best feature. It's not that they are pretty by any stretch of the imagination....but when I reach out and touch someone, I can feel a warmth that comes from deep inside me and runs through my hands to my fingers to the person I am touching. My hope is that the person on the receiving end feels the love & respect from my touch.

Your best feature

What do I love about me? Hmmm...I guess my biggest pride and worst worries are about my children. I have been told by many that I am a great parent. Not that I am smart, or educated in child psych or supermom...I was parenting long before university. I think my parenting skills came more from a desire to think like them again and remember my own behaviour at their age.

Can I say my compassion?

I am ever greatful that through my life experiences I have gained a very large sense of compassion for others, animals, even plants.

I like to care for things and people and such, and I am glad that I have that though it does leave me feeling sad sometimes when bad things happen to those around me, it is still worth it to feel that compassion.

I read this post when it was first posted & just couldn't come up with anything that really made sense.....looking at the physical.....what a complete mess.

Hair is horrible....since a child, it has been frizzy & completely unmanageable. Then after the trauma I went through & lost so much weight, the hair paid quite a price, now looking like one of those straw brooms. I was so excited when they came up with those fake hair pieces that I could just roll my hear up, pin it to my head & stick the fake pony tale over it.

Add to that, my face looks years older than I am. That also happened after my massive weight loss. Guess there just isn't anything left to fill the skin out & it just hangs there in wrinkles.....no face cream in the world can help that & no way would I ever consider cosmetic surgery.

I noticed that my neck also has skin that is just hanging there. I realized that must have come from the neck fusion surgery I had because that's on the side of the incision....also scars on my neck make turtle necks wonderful clothing to wear.

My eyes are a pretty blue, but that can't be seen easily through the glasses that I wear all the time now (not just for reading). The eye lashes were always short & light....as if they weren't there....but I never got good at the makeup thing because I kept poking myself in the eye everytime I tried.

Oh, the smile....used to be nice, but now, my teeth are so bad that I don't even want to open my mouth to talk much let alone smile. When my teeth were developing, I was sick & they tell me that the high temps & antibiotics made the enamel not form, so the teeth are all cracking & breaking.....I am rather embarassed to smile with my 2 front teeth there, but the ones around them broken off. Remember, "don't smile for your drivers license photo!!!!!!!". (I have to get my new license here in KY & haven't done it yet because I am afraid to get the photo taken).

Feet are so small, I usually have to wear kids shoes to find any that fit. At least that is in proportion with my body which is 5'2". My hands are also so small. I try to find winter gloves to keep my hands warm & my little fingers are so small that the glove finger folds over completly one whole finger length......again, I have to find children's gloves to fit & I'm usually not into the childrens doll decorations on my clothing.....lol.

So now that I have eliminated any physical feature....what is left? I have to look inside. My mind......I think that is probably my best feature. I am intelligent enough so that I am able to know things & my mind is logical enough that I can usually figure out anything that I don't know. My mind is good at listening to what others have to say, so that I can learn from what others have already learned & hear what they are trying to tell or ask me. My mind is good at putting pieces together, & able to communicate information to others (assuming I don't get too long winded & put them to sleep before that....lol). I hope that the best part of my mind is that it is open to hearing the needs of people around me & understanding what they are telling me so that if I can help in any way, then I am able to. I also try to make sure that my mind is able to see what is going on around me so that I am aware of my environment. I find this to be a very important part of life especially when there are people out there trying to take advantage of you or others around you & hurt you in many possible ways. Allowing your mind to be in balance with the world around you is tough, but that is something I try to continually work on & allowing my mind to do the job it's capable of doing is my continual goal for the only good feature I seem to have.

Thanks for the thought provoking question....I love all the beautiful answers that everyone has come up with.....it's an awsome way to get to know everyone here at PC.

Ok, I've been staring at the blinking cursor for awhile now. It seems like I should post something physical. Something tangible about myself that I can point to and say there, that's nice. Unfortunately I look like a cartoon version of Steve Buscemi playing Moby as he endures the horrors of chemotherapy.

So I'll go with my wit. I am Cyrano, after all.
