What I Love About Being Human

Today, I started a new book that is supposed to guide me in the journaling I practice each morning. The book is called LIST YOURSELF. The theory behind the book is that making numerous list about particular topics is a way to a deeper, more meaningful self-discovery...


My very first list was to list all the qualities I love about being human. My first thought was hmmmm....this could be dangerous. I can easily list all the pain in the ass things I hate about being human. But something interesting happened. As I put my pen on the paper to attempt this list, I couldn't stop. It came so easy to me to list things I loved about being human. Yet usually, I find daily thoughts go more towards the negative side of this list. I rarely even thought about the things I loved about being human. Making the list made me appreciative of the gifts that I so often take for granted. I've shared my list below and I know there are so many more things I've left out. I've love to hear your list so please share on the blog or on facebook.
