I was talking about my Mom and Gpa :rip: this morn with my man. I've always known that there were things I respected about both of them, but didn't realize how they made me the person I am today. It was extremely touching to hear him say that he saw the same qualities in me, and valued them as well.

Mom: Overly kind, giving, friendly, gets along with pretty much everyone, forgiving.

Gpa: He taught me what true love is, and the relationship between a parent and their children being selfless.

I've also acquired some negs.

Mom: casual about everything, thinks everything will 'just work out', quick to just leave when things get rough....

Gpa: bad communication, don't want to 'burden' anyone with talking about any feelings I have.

Mom: give me her old school values, My dad give my an open mind. They always give me lots of wisdom.

Both pros: compassionate, giving, brains, loyalty, creativity, dorkness (it's my word)

Both cons: compassionate, open minded, giving, shyness, dorkness

It's more I don't want to write a novel.
