I can't control how others view me, so I simply concentrate on how I view myself...nobody else alive will ever know what transpires within my head, my heart, my soul...only I will...and knowing all these things gives me the ability to better/more accurately view myself, my words, my actions...if I'm living up to the true person my inner self has been telling me to be since day 1...Personally, I don't concentrate at all on how I "wish to be remembered"...I figure that, if I live my life as honestly and sincerely as I can, the rest will take care of itself.

HOW U R viewing urself will show itself to others, yes. The way a person thinks of himself & actually conducts his life shows through one's body language, thought processes, and the way one interacts with others.

I value what you think more than many! Your a young wiseman!

I view myself as strong; a person of unshakable faith;
a compassionate person; willing to give of my time and
energy to help others.

On another level, I view myself as too attentive to what
is pretty in a material way.
I collect gemstone rings and diamond rings. I like pretty hairstyles.
I like pedicures and manicures.I am a girlie girl.
I like being pampered.
I like to smile.
I like to see others happy.

I am not interested in my geneology or anybody else's; for this
reason I am perceived as unintelligent by those who put lots
of stock in that sort of thing.

I was valedictorian, national merit finalist, won many academic awards...
algebra, chemistry, physics, geometry.
I won no awards in social sciences. I hate dates and details. I hate cookbooks and recipes.


I drive whatever car my husband gives me. I am not particular about that.
It does not bother me that my husband pays all the bills.
He seems to like taking care of me.


I have lots of friends, most of them male.
Some people don't like me. (for some reason that makes me smile)
I think it's because I know I have done no wrong to anyone.
I am not perfect by a long shot.
I like being me.

On the org or in real life?

i only show a small part of my personality on the org... although there are a few here who know me on a deeper level

I can see you, Llee! What on earth are you wearing??

Anji said:

Jeans..T-shirt ..and...

I think I'm very moody...but for the most part I think I'm pleasant. I like to have fun, like to make other people have fun and most important I'm always there for my friends...

I'm just an asshole here though

You got any coke, Llee?

Hey Well, I tend to think almost exactly along these lines. However, I do also focus energy upon myself in order to control certain things around me.

Well, I guess I do, too...but I don't call it "controlling things around me", as much as I call it "setting the right atmosphere for things to be the way I'd like them to be"...lol..In other woids, I go into everything with the realization that I can't control anything that may transpire...I can only help set up the conditions which would be the most beneficial to seeing things transpire in a positive way. Whether or not they do is beyond my control...

How others perceive me is of no importance. It is how I present myself to the world, to myself that matters..

Am I caring? Am I respectful? Do I show absolute love? Do I provide a caring, and safe environment for those that I love? Am I just, and unbiased when presented with quesion?

I say I am all of those.

CarrieLee I got your postcard yesterday! Thank You

Took long enough to get there! I sent them out the 2nd day I was there...oh well. At least you got it!

I think you're caring too Sag

But you're not respectful to ME!

sag10 said:

The point is, Saggy, how you present yourself to yourself often determines how others view you. Other people's perception of you may be of no importance to you but what they might be thinking of you, is often based on the vibe you've given them in the first place. I'd be surprised if it's always in your best interests to dismiss how you are being perceived by others.

I see what you are saying.. but I am who I am and that is all that I am..

People either love you or hate you. I cannot change how others perceive me. It is all in what that mirror has to show you.
