I was not sure what to write about tonight but earlier I was looking at the results of some homework that Stephanie Staples gave me on the Alaskan Cruise session and I decided I should think about it a little bit. Stephanie had suggested that we email three friends and ask them to tell us three strengths about ourselves and why they think they are a strength. I decided to post it on FaceBook and see what the universe tossed back at me. Two of the responses came from people I probably would have asked anyway and one delightful response from a cousin. A fourth is pending. Another friend liked some of my cousin’s comments. Two responses were sent as messages so only I could see them.
As I read each of my perceived strengths, there were no surprises. The people in my life know me well. My faith came up a couple of times, which made me happy. I want to be a lighthouse in this regard. I am humbled by what people had to say. I think they are on the mark though. I guess I don’t always think about what I do and how it is perceived; I just do it…like a lighthouse.
I am glad that people see me as I see me since I try hard to live transparently and with integrity. It was a good exercise and I challenge you to try it out. You may be surprised—and blessed—by what you receive back.
Peace,
Suzanne
