Today is Thanksgiving, and I am about 10,000 miles away from my parents, siblings, and friends who’ve known me for years. Needless to say, I’m feeling homesick! On days I feel a bit sad, I crave belonging and  friendship, so I ask those who are closest to me one simple question:

“How would you describe me in 3 words?”

 

This is How My Loved Ones Describe Me:

  • Kind & Caring/Compassionate  *8
  • Funny/Hilarious *5
  • Intelligent/Intuitive *4
  • Fun-loving/Fun *4
  • Confident & Outgoing *4
  • Loving *4
  • Spontaneous/Adventurous *3
  • Beautiful/Sexy *3
  • Ambitious/Driven *3
  • Goofy/Quirky *2
  • Fearless *2
  • Spiritual/Free Spirited *2
  • Loyal/Devoted *2
  • Patient *2
  • Soulful
  • Bold
  • Unique
  • Sensitive
  • Affectionate
  • Nurturing
  • Intense
  • Silly
  • Inspirational

I think this simple but meaningful exercise can be a significant
way to lift your mood, as it lifted mine.
Thank you to those who warmed my heart.
Will you try this next time you feel a bit down?
