Meme of good qualities

[nanila]

I feel the need to spend time thinking positively about my community, and all the lovely people in it.

Please leave a comment if you would like me to tell you something I admire about you.

? :)

[nanila]

In the past year you've successfully distanced yourself from a multitude of toxic circumstances, and are still actively working to carve out a space that is comfortable to you. That takes both persistence and energy, and I applaud you for it.

[ankaret]

Me?

[nanila]

My love for the manner in which you share your thoughts knows no bounds. The adorable floofball cats, the astute anecdotes from village life and let's not forget the hysterically funny recaps of terrible dating shows. Please, never stop writing.

[forthwritten]

I would like that.

[askygoneonfire]

I admire your tenacity

[rmc28]

I would appreciate it very much :-)

[nanila]

I admire the way you have managed to twine politics into your life in a positive manner. I admire your enthusiasm and goodwill.

[ironed_orchid]

Yes, please.

[nanila]

I admire the life you've carved out for yourself. It seems cosy and cat-filled, and you seem very comfortable in it.

[aella_irene]

*raises hand*

[nanila]

I admire your dedication to your academic interests.

And of course, your sense of personal style!

[surpassingly]

What a lovely idea! Me please!

[nanila]

I admire the way your art, which was stunning five years ago, is continually becoming more spectacular.

[yvi]

Yes, please?

[nanila]

I admire the way you're continuously and actively engaged in self-care. Self-care has this way of becoming more difficult the more you need it, and you manage to achieve it even during the darkest times.

[sfred]

Alright, then. :-)

[nanila]

I admire your courageous exploration and acceptance of your evolving self. :)

[azurelunatic]

I think that would be nice.

[nanila]

I admire your whimsical storytelling ability.

[whereisirisnow]

That would be lovely :)

[nanila]

I admire your self-possession, your intellectual curiosity, your scientific capability, your geniality and your spirited ambition. You are a remarkable person and I consider myself incredibly fortunate to have met you!

[oursin]

Please???

[nanila]

I admire the way you've chosen to channel your energies into many pleasant pastimes, and that one of those is bringing much delight to others in the form of Madame C-.

[kotturinn]

I don't think you've "known" me online for long enough but if you can think of something it would be lovely.

I can think of several things I admire about you (I was intermittently reading your journal for quite a while before officially adding to my reading, she says, slightly guiltily).

[nanila]

You seem to know yourself very well, and be comfortable asserting your space and your needs. I think this is quite admirable!

I'm honoured that you found me interesting enough to check in on periodically. :)

[nadriel]

Not sure if I'm known enough to qualify, but I could use the positivity :-)

[cmcmck]

Oh, go on then! :o)

[nanila]

I admire the depth and breadth of your knowledge on many topics. You are a true scholar!

[ceb]

This is an excellent idea. I too have been doing too much dwelling on annoying people/things recently and it is not productive of a good mood. Yes please, and I shall probably do something similar.

[nanila]

I admire the way you mesh scientific ideas into your creative endeavours to produce unique and delightful art objects.

[gwendraith]

We haven't known each other long so I'm not certain there's much that's admirable about me to winkle out :) Of course I've spotted a few admirable qualities in you!

Do your best, please :)

[nanila]

I admire your photography, particularly of the wildlife you encounter in your environs. You also appear to have raised a remarkably loving and close-knit family, which is eminently admirable!

[redsixwing]

Me too, please?

[nanila]

I admire your capacity to take on long-term, large-scale creative projects and see them through.

[uninvitedcat]

I think I am a little too quiet on here to qualify for admiration! However, I would like to say I admire your energy and enthusiasm. Even when your spirits are low you post and share your life with us, bringing into being a connection between people that would otherwise not exist. Thank you.

[caulkhead]

Yes, seconded

[quoththeravyn]

Sure. Thanks for this great idea.

[nanila]

I hope it's not too embarrassing if I tell you you're one of my role models. You've had an admirable technical career, and somehow in the midst of that you have taught yourself how to write really well.

[gominokouhai]

Compliments are always appreciated, especially at the moment.

[nanila]

You drink whisky professionally. You're living the dream, man.

In addition to admiring your career choice, I also admire your eloquence.

[silveradept]

Please do, if convenient for you.

[nanila]

Through your careful curation, you elevate linkspams into beautiful mazes that are a delight to become lost in.

You also tend to your DW community with wonderfully thoughtful and consistent support. I admire, appreciate and wish to emulate that.

[askygoneonfire]

I [mis]read this and jumped to click and write something I admire about you. Then I reread. But whatever, I'm proceeding with my initial understanding of this post and telling you anyway;

I admire your professionalism; your commitment and flexibility in your work (exemplified in the schools outreach you wrote about previously, and your ability to translate parts of what you do to comprehensible posts on here), especially when juggling childcare and lack of sleep, is something I admire greatly. And I enjoy being able to get glimpses into your work with your posts - so thank you for that.

[nanila]

Thank you for these kind words! I have been going back to this post periodically to respond to comments, and seeing tours always gives me a boost. Sorry it has taken me so long to reply.

I admire your honest self examination and appraisal, as well as your ability to express nuanced and complicated views of situations with great clarity.

[liseuse]

Yes please.

[nanila]

I admire your thoughtfulness and willingness to patiently participate in your local community, even while being gently amused by its more insular tendencies.

[lark_ascends]

(Feels bad as not really been around)

But, yes, please.

[nanila]

So much to say! I admire the care you take of your pets, the way you've made public outreach your bailiwick and used your formidable photography skills to further its aims, and your appreciation of the natural world.
