DAY 365+83

me (an updated list)

introvert but not shy
teacher by profession (and by vocation)
perfectionist who is learning acceptance
lover of details

unpunctual
achievement oriented
advocate of the connection between all things, beings and events
accidental academic with a creative nature

increasingly convinced that I have to focus on the bright side of things
prone to anger
learning to be visible
stubborn when not centered

joyful
amateur photographer
sensitive (and sometimes even hyper-sensitive)
believer of the healing power of art, prayers and silence

exploring my inner world through the spiritual practice
setting boundaries
learning respect (and self-respect)
professing the belief in kindness and compassion

starting to be less rigid
in favor of authenticity
cat person
grateful

cultivating mindfulness and serenity
looking for ways to love myself more (much more)
letting go preconceived ideas about life and happiness
in search of clarity

no expecting approval anymore
devotee of reading (and writing)
tenacious
tidy but not very organized

embracing my gifts and universe guidance
trying to reach peace through the little things
analytic with a bohemian heart
paying attention to my soul voice

passionate (and a bit obsessive from time to time)
procrastinator
currently celebrating the beauty of my path (my own beauty)
and perhaps, finally satisfied, appeased

I love this entire post. The photo, the poem/list... and I am thinking, this week? I will write a selfie, paint - or collage - a selfie, and take a new photo selfie. Thank you for the inspiration!!

I applaud you for making the list. I don't think I can find that many things about me. I will have to try harder. :)

Many people do not understand that introvert and shyness do not always go hand in hand.

Sarah Leonard said...

I love this idea - this way of sharing yourself with your readers.

I should definitely do more of this :)

Zena, this is a wonderfully self-effacing poem without being denigrating or egocentric. I love it! A great way to gain self-awareness. I think I might try it. Thanks for visiting me.
