Pretty Good at Being Me…

Daily writing prompt
What are you good at?

My parents have always supported and believed in me, seeing me as a pretty good kid, much like most children. I was an above-average student and often received compliments on my sense of humor, great laugh, and fun personality. People described me as charitable and someone who was always willing to lend a helping hand—just your regular kind of guy. However, those same people also warned that I am not someone to be taken advantage of or made into anyone’s patsy. I can handle myself in difficult situations, but overall, I consider myself to be a nice, respectful, hardworking, trustworthy, friendly, charitable, and caring person. I have a strong dislike for dishonesty, gangs, bullies, and those who take advantage of others.

While I excel in certain areas, I recognize that there is always room for improvement in my roles as a husband, father, grandfather, mentor, neighbor, writer, and poet. I enjoy winemaking and playing the guitar, and I have a fairly good singing voice. Overall, I have a healthy appetite and strive to maintain good health. I value optimism, integrity, and being a good neighbor and friend.

I have a diverse set of skills and a healthy appetite for life. I consider myself to be in good health and have no complaints in that regard. I am handy and maintain an optimistic outlook while following a strong moral and ethical code. I strive to be supportive of others. My Catholic faith guides my values and actions, contributing to my generally positive perspective on life.
