I notice a lot of people don't spend enough time celebrating themselves.

I would like to hear what you all are proud of about yourself and what is BEAUTIFUL about you?

What do you have to give that nobody in the world can give but you? What makes you unique?

My potential,
is what I love about myself.

It is what I love about everyone.

I don't really think in terms of "unique".
The most unique thing about me is my experience, and even that is shared by many.

The potential for self-realisation is the most important thing to me, in all beings.

And the most beautiful.

I have a lot more common sense than most people, and I'm pretty appreciative for it.

And I like my legs. And nose. Well, shoot. I like everything about me except my belly.

My body, my eyes, my nose and my lips and hair lol. I like my sensitivity to people's pain even if it is overwhelming at times. I love my compassion and sympathy.

I love my strength, wisdom, maturity, inner beauty (which I value more than outer beauty).

I love that I never gave up when there was nothing else left in me to give.

I love that I no longer need anyone to complete me.

I think the charts can show us our strengths and every single person has something beautiful in his or her chart, many times many things beautiful.

I like to focus on these, as well as the struggles. Each person is a unique design from God.

For me, I have an Unaspected Venus. I could always make my way in social situations by being kind and warm.

I would be able to become part of groups and make friends because I had an intuitive sense of how.

I have Pluto sextile Mercury and the Sun. I know things about people and situations as does a Scorpio.

I lost trust in this when I was a child because I had a mother who gaslighted me i.e took away my reality.

However, I can feel things out in a wordless way.

I like these two things about myself. This is an awesome thread. Thanks for it

I love about myself..

-that I can see multiple sides to almost anything
-that I managed to overcome most of my fears and demons, as well as my addictions, prejudices and limitations
-that I've learned to be 100% honest with myself
-that even though I wanted to give up and I hit rock bottom, I somehow found the strength to get up, grab life by the balls and tell it I'm taking back everything, b**ch!

That's admirable DM

Thanks Ami.

I think the pain in human race today partly springs from always needing other peoples approval. From people thinking they Need a significant other and they will finally be happy.


Truth is people don't stop to look at themselves and love themselves before they love other people. If they could finally see this, and achieve self love, they wouldn't have to go looking for love, it would effortlessly come to them.

I think the most beautiful thing in life, is understanding we are all unique. We all have pain and happiness. We are all special. The question is do we recognize how special we are so others can recognize this as well?

Even our pain gives us gifts. Its to overcome, become stronger, and then help others who may go through the same trauma. These are the type of people the world needs.

We need people who aren't followers and who contribute something special that nobody else in the world has ever done. That is true greatness to me.

One of the most valuable things ive learned in my spirituality, is that the physical body doesn't reflect the true beauty that is within. Too much people put value on physical beauty, when the inner beauty is lifeless and empty. This is why people grow old and die, because they never acknowledge the t rue source of life. If only they did so they would achieve everlasting life.

I like that God has gifted me with outer beauty, but im so grateful that I have always valued the true beauty within, which is God. God is the source of beauty. So It doesn't matter to me when I see a beautiful woman or handsome man, if he or she doesn't acknowledge the source of life, they have nothing.

Its very profound but im a deep thinker and a deep feeler.


This is truly what Shakespeare's poem "shall I compare thee to a Summers day' means.

Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate.
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
And summer’s lease hath all too short a date.
Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,
And often is his gold complexion dimmed;
And every fair from fair sometime declines,
By chance, or nature’s changing course, untrimmed;
But thy eternal summer shall not fade,
Nor lose possession of that fair thou ow’st,
Nor shall death brag thou wand’rest in his shade,
When in eternal lines to Time thou grow’st.
So long as men can breathe, or eyes can see,
So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.

Doux

I could list several things right now. I hope you don't mind. If you want me to take them off, I will tomorrow

1. You make people feel very special.

2. You are a very warm person

3. You are super intelligent

4. You speak 3 languages fluently. My dream is to speak 2 and I would be thrilled with that

5. You are an amazing astrologer

6. You are adorable.

7. You have a lot of empathy

Doux, just wanted to say I know exactly how you feel. Its not always easy to remember, but we all have special gifts and unique traits that make us great.

Believe me, everyone around me is getting married, having kids, going traveling, getting better jobs, enjoying things I cannot, and I often feel worthless because of it.

You have to be your biggest advocate now matter how hard it can be at times.

I don't know you as well as I do Doux but you always have a warm word and you are very strong and stand up for what you believe in, in a quiet way.

You have a lovely energy which I appreciate and am grateful to know you!

I love metaphoric thinking. I learned that being able to think metaphorically is a sign of genius.

On the bright side---at least you know you're not a complete narcissist or suffering from delusions of grandeur. Small victories, eh?
