Getting to know myself! So I found this other BlogSpot while cruising Pinterest, and by cruising I of course mean obsessing over a million things I wish I had thought of first and/or had time to do myself. It caught my eye and I read through it and it really made me stop and think. This is the link here. I read through the questions and thought that although this was designed to get to know your significant other better, and for them to know you, this was an opportunity to discover myself once again. How often do we become bogged down by the day-to-day and forget who we really are? I'm not talking about the obvious labels of Mother, Daughter, sister, wife, friend and such. I'm talking about deep down what do we really know about ourselves. Are we dreamers? Do we practice what we preach? Are we living the life we thought we would when we were young and dreaming of our future? I think that by answering each of these questions we give ourselves the opportunity to become better acquainted with who we are now. Some will be easy and simple. Others will require thought and even some soul searching. I encourage everyone to visit that site and see how many questions you can answer. Make it a fun activity to share with your significant other and I hope you find some insight into yourself. Who knows? Perhaps this will give you a starting point for a new direction. With that here goes the first entry for my list of 30. #1. List 20 random facts about yourself. My 20 random facts: 1. I love the colors pink and purple. 2.
