If you can't say anything nice...

badseed1980Just 'cause I felt like it, and because I thought it was a good thing to do, here is something nice about everyone on my friends list--and here's the kicker--it's something that I have never said about anyone else, as far as I can remember. I just want to remind you all that you're all unique and special people in my eyes.

aelisdeleria: I feel like you and I have a lot of tempermental differences, but in spite of that, you always seem to be able to understand my problems and offer sympathy that is genuine, and very welcome.
bittercat: You remind me that not everyone with radical opinions on controversial subjects is closed-minded and intolerant towards other points of view.
countrybeauty: I've seen you open up a lot since we first met, and I'm proud of you for that, because you have a lot to share. I feel honored to be someone who you've confided in, because I know you don't do that with a lot of people.
dee_cee: I admire your ability to be a radical feminist AND a girly-girl. :)
dolphindream: It actually amazes me how much you've grown over the past year or so. You have a lot of balls to be able to confront and tackle your issues.
elissa_carey: I feel like if I asked you for advice on anything, you'd tell me exactly the right thing. I think I'd trust whatever you said to be morally and rationally right. I respect that a lot.
erik_j_meyer: Your writing always manages to combine thought-provoking oddities and plain amusement in a very neat way. It's always a pleasure to read.
j4yx0r: You are most likely the best entertainer I know who doesn't entertain for a living. You can always cheer me up.
leenah: You are the best person to share obsessions with because your enthusiasm is so intense and infectious.
lindalee: I just noticed you added me, so I added you! I would not want anyone else filling the role that you fill in my life. Thank you for doing it. :)
lokiswings: Although I haven't asked for it, you're my only friend who I'd trust to draw a tattoo for me.
lovelyblackrose: It takes a very brave person to look a friend in the eye and ask, "What's wrong with me?" I'm glad you did, so I could let you know that my concerns are only because I care.
mcsloshed: Your wild boy personality hides a great depth of spirituality that surprised me when we first met. There's a lot more to you than meets the eye.
meadmaker: You have a rare gift for making people feel cared about. You seem to treat everyone with true consideration.
mindspider: I've never known anyone else who could blend the personalities of grumpy old man and teddy bear so deftly.
mystaya_sin: The first time I met you, I had a lot of respect for you when you told me that you had stepped down from your religious position because personal issues kept you from fulfilling that role in the proper way. Not many people are able to know when this is the case for them.
pierceheart: I think it's most important to do this for you, so here goes: in every way--physically, intellectually, emotionally, and spiritually--you have shown me new and exciting things. I've never known anyone who fit with me so well in so many ways, or who inspired me so much. Yeah, that includes the other men I've loved. You give me things that none of them gave me. I feel like meeting you was the start of an entirely new era in my life, and the start of a voyage of discovery.
shariruby: You throw the best parties of any college student I know.
sweetpeatn: For someone who was raised in an environment of intolerance, you do a wonderful job of keeping an open mind. I admire the way you keep pushing your own boundaries to open your mind further.
thirdson: It takes serious balls to eat a cheeseburger on Yom Kippur...
tigira: You are an inspiration to me in the way you face good times and bad with grace, humour, and determination. I feel like I've gotten a lot closer to you lately, and I am very, very glad about that.
tisana: I've often been jealous of you for many reasons, but it hasn't gotten in the way of liking you a hell of a lot. :)
windwriter: Your inquisitiveness is amazing. I love the way you're always looking to know more.
witchyspyce: You said some very kind and comforting things to me and offered to listen to me bitch when I was going through a really bad time, at a point when I barely knew you, even online. I don't even know if I had added you to my friends list yet. People as warm and welcoming as you are rare and wonderful.
If I left anyone out, it's only because I haven't talked to you enough to really be able to do this. Forgive me. :)
