It’s just a general outlook I think…I didn’t learn the same “rules” that most people do growing up, so I tend to see how ridiculous most generally-accepted beliefs are. Had to really think about that answer – those are always the best questions 😀
That’s a stumper… I’d say that I’ve come to peace with the fact that I don’t want negative people in my life – even if they are family. It’s the coming to peace part that leaves me feeling good.
Well, from my perspective there is nothing unusual about me… 🙂 I guess it will depend on the “eye of the beholder” and what someone else perceives about me… 🙂
“You wouldn’t worry so much about what others think of you if you realize how seldom they do”.. Eleanor Roosevelt
This is a very good question. Most of the time, I try to. Sometimes I realize that the filters I use to see myself are not mine and I’m working to eliminate them.
My tenacity. When i want something, I go after it. I said I wanted to be an attorney at 15. I had a baby at 17 (and another at 20). I started college at 25. I was sworn into the Florida Bar at 32.
I love to cook and when I learn a new recipe I need to know the exact quantities of ingredients and the exact steps (even the little ones) so I can feel in control. Otherwise I feel very anxious. I don’t know if it’s the most unusual one, but this came through my mind right now.
What’s unusual about me is that I can never say what is unusual about myself; I’ll ask my husband or someone else what they see. I guess it’s because I don’t see my true self, if that makes any sense. I asked a friend what did she think of me when she first met me and she said “strange”; it was something about me that was different from anyone she ever met.🤔😜
I don’t know if mine is unusual or just ordinary… I can raise one eyebrow, the left one but not the right. Of course I can raise both of my eyebrows at the same time.
The most unusual thing about me… I think the way I think. It tends to differ from the way others think, even in situations we get to the same conclusion, the roads there differ very.
Wow, probably my brain function. Have you ever watched the series “the librarian”? That is the vastness and explicitness of my never ending thought process. Yea, I think that’s pretty unique.
I’m a 6’5″ strong puertorican man who grew up roasting pigs and listening to salsa. Now at 41 I’ve been a vegetarian for over a decade, my favorite music is country, I’m a huge gardner and I live in the country
i can forgive almost anyone, anything, instantly and i am pretty good at ignoring all the negative qualities of people and ALWAYS see goodness in EVERYONE (sadly, i have a hard time implementing these things on myself :P)
it’s all i could come up with right now
Wouldn’t even know where to start with that. If I had to pick one thing I’d say my beliefs.
