I am the one who ...

I am the one who loves purple
I am the one who plans and organizes
I am the one who sees shapes and designs in odd places
I am the one who sees textures in a hillside of trees
I am the one who realizes there are no coincidences
I am the one who tries to pay attention to what the Universe is telling me
I am the one who wonders what others are doing
I am the one who is curious
I am the one who worries about the children, the grandchildren, the dogs
I am the one who tries desperately not to think "what if?"
I am the one who gets annoyed at noise that invades my space
I am the one who loves going into "the zone"
I am the one who sneezes after eating chocolate, but eats it anyway
I am the one who says "I don't give a shit"
I am the one who has the potty mouth whose favorite word is fuck
I am the one who goes for the shock value
I am the one who teases
I am the one who eavesdrops on conversations
I am the one who wants color instead of beige
I am the one who doesn't understand how people can be bored
I am the one who gets annoyed over poor customer service
I am the one who refuses to say the words "I hate"
I am the one who can't tolerate racism
I am the one who loves art retreats
I am the one who has too many ideas
I am the one who loves dogs
I am the one who loves waking up to singing birds
I am the one who loves hearing the distant train whistle
I am the one who has zero tolerance for what I call "stupid shit"
I am the one who always asks "why?"
I am the one who loves popcorn
I am the one who devours books
I am the one who loves projects
I am the one who wants to help people in need
I am the one who wants to do it all
I am the one who loves education
I am the one who loves thinking about Italy
I am the one who doesn't like darkness
I am the one who needs the sun
I am the one who loves to sing along
I am the one who knows the lyrics to every Beatles song ever written
I am the one who loves morning coffee
I am the one who loves to dance
I am the one who loves nature and hiking in the woods
I am the one who loves good movies
I am the one who loves art

  1. I am the one who was first to comment on this fabulous list of YOU!
    I am the one who would love to visit the Purple Barn!
    I am the one who is SO glad to have met you, last year!
    I am the one who wishes you lived in NC (although I am sure that I am not alone)!

  3. Love your list! I bet there are less than five of those things I would not say about myself! So good company. What a great idea and a great way to know you.
