My 5 Strengths...

My strengths are Empathy, Belief, Responsibility, Strategic, and Relator. All of these strengths appear to be an accurate description of me. Empathy works for me because I do feel the pain of others and I can see what people are going through. I also do understand why people may have made the choices they have made and although may not agree with it I understand their logic behind it... in most cases.
Belief works for me because I stand true to what I believe and I am trustworthy. You can come to me and confide in me and not have worry about me telling everyone and their mother your business. I hold the strong belief that you should be able to trust me. Responsibility works for me because this also vividly describes me. I am someone who will own up to what I do. If I start something I have to complete it... especially when it involves other people that are affected by my decisions. As a result of this I have been known to bite off more than i needed to chew. i could chew it but it was uncomfortable. =)
I do consider myself to be quite strategic... i think about things in ways other people wouldn't. I don't always take the conventional route, i sometimes choose not to. I am constantly thinking in terms of cause and effect. That has proven to be very valuable in most situations but in others it has caused me to over analyze the given situation. Finally Relator is really big because this is how i am. Intimacy is a big part of relationships for me. While it is how I am I don't force it on people i let them get to know me and get comfortable with me so we can work on the intimacy in our relationship.
Those are my 5 strengths. =)

This Is ME... (take it or leave it)

Who am I? First and foremost I am a child of God, a Christian. I am an instrument for his work. I am a person with a heart that beats and soul that cries for the hearts that have no Father. Each tear is filled with a prayer and a voice. I am a healer.


I am a poet with a healing pen and gentle hands. I am a twisted contender in a game of lies and false hope. I am nothing without God, and share what I am with those around me. I am love, peace and gentle soul. I am real and indisputably crazy but gentle and understanding.

I am the arms that hold the broken hearts of yesterday and tomorrow. I am the eyes that drown the incoherence of a broken world and see the beauty beneath the wicked faces. I am the broken heart that cries out to the skies in search of God's hand to heal me as he heals the hearts of the broken through my own palms. I am a Christian with the gift of life.
