Okay. I know this one went around a while ago, and I didn't jump on the bandwagon then, but.... well, I could use it now. Because I'm stumbling hard on my goal of being nice to myself, and I know that I'm not seeing myself through unbiased eyes, so I need y'all to help me. I don't need pandering, or stroking, just... an outside viewpoint.

If you had to pick one word to describe me, what would it be?

Exuberant.

Dancing! Because that's how I picture you from cons, Marcon and OVFF, always dancing. :-)

[hugh-mannity.livejournal.com]

Compassionate.

[chaiya.livejournal.com]

Ethereal. (I just keep picturing you dancing ... :)

[wcg.livejournal.com]

Answering before I look at anyone else's response.

Vivacious.

Like any one word definition, it leaves out a lot. But it captures the essence of you as I think of you.

JMac says intense
I say dancer

[vettecat.livejournal.com]

Multitalented.

It's a tossup between "dedicated" and "delightful".

[aries-walker.livejournal.com]

Would it be cheating to say "spritely"?

If it is, then "elfin".

[starcat-jewel.livejournal.com]

Competent. You're competent at your job, at cooking, at dancing, at sewing, at teaching dance, probably at more things that I'm just not thinking of at the moment. You keep worrying that you aren't competent, and the rest of us don't understand how you can be so good at so many things!

Dedicated. (...to your craft, to your profession, to your performances, etc.)

[gmkieran.livejournal.com]

Passionate. In everything I've ever known you to do. *hugs*

In some myths, Raven stole the sun (the ultimate shiny!) to bring it to man. When I realized that this was why Raven was my primary spirit guide (because I also want to bring warmth and sustenance to people), it suddenly made sense. (It wasn't that I rejected Raven; I was just kind of curious as to why the connection seemed so strong and important.)

So, keeping in mind that this is why I choose the word, the word I'd use to describe you is "warm".

Because there is sunlight within you (well, the local equivalent) that is good, warm, light that nurtures and strengthens.

(Hey, you said "one word" you didn't say I couldn't explain! :-) )

Shiny. Partly in the Firefly sense, but also in the sense that you are one of the most *vivid* people I've ever known. In an often grey world, you stand out...

[evcelt.livejournal.com]

sprightly :-)

[zonereyrie.livejournal.com]

Huggable.

(My first thought - you give good hugs, and I'm kind of hug-centric. Additional thoughts - intelligent, passionate, caring, competent...)

[tafkad.livejournal.com]

Hmmmm. My first instinct was to say, "bouncy," but even though that's meant to encompass everything good about you--all the joy you bring when we get together--it sounds frivolous.

Then I thought of "thoughtful," because you have some very generous tendencies that you make non-generic, but I saw you listed it as your current mood, so . . . scrap that.

I'll go with "welcoming."

[baron-saturday.livejournal.com]

Passionate.

[felis-sidus.livejournal.com]

Creative.

[dagibbs.livejournal.com]

Is "dancealicious" a word?

Enchanting.
