1.
Appreciation Of Beauty & Excellence
You notice and appreciate beauty, excellence, and/or skilled performance in all domains of life, from nature to art to mathematics to science to everyday experience.
2.
Love
You value close relations with others, in particular those in which sharing and caring are reciprocated. The people to whom you feel most close are the same people who feel most close to you.
3.
Gratitude
You are aware of the good things that happen to you, and you never take them for granted. Your friends and family members know that you are a grateful person because you always take the time to express your thanks.
4.
Humor
You like to laugh and tease. Bringing smiles to other people is important to you. You try to see the light side of all situations.
5.
Prudence
You are a careful person, and your choices are consistently prudent ones. You do not say or do things that you might later regret.
6.Social Intelligence
You are aware of the motives and feelings of other people. You know what to do to fit in to different social situations, and you know what to do to put others at ease.
I believe these are strong qualities for me. I am always struck by beauty in patterns, colors, views, human expression - which is why I love taking photos. I adore my family and friends, and tell them so with great frequency. I am grateful each and every day for my many blessings as an overseas teacher, as a mom, wife, sister, daughter, friend. I approach every situation with humor, and am acutely aware of the feelings of others. And yes, I'm not a risk taker. I calculate advantages and disadvantages of every situation before making a decision. What's missing from my list? I love learning and improving myself continually.
