Posted almost 5 years ago What makes you admire someone? Is it only because of their accomplishments and successes? Or do you admire their resilience in the face of life's challenges? Also, do you stop admiring someone if they disappoint you either in their choices or promises to you? |

| Posted almost 5 years ago I have to agree with the value of integrity. No matter how accomplished or powerful someone is, without integrity, I don't feel they deserve admiration. Imagination. . .is the power that enables us to empathise with humans whose experiences we have never shared. (J.K. Rowling) |

| Posted almost 5 years ago I admire people who keep their spriit strong even while facing life's challenges. To me someone who is kind despite their situation (good bad or indifferent) is someone to be admired. There are so many mean spirited and ugly (on the inside) types of people. I gravitate towards people who are hopeful and strive to make things better regardless. |

| Posted almost 5 years ago There are many things I admire in a person. My first thoughts - just from being at excelle: I admire people who are openly and respectfully honest abt their opinions - whether it's popular or not. I admire people who can respond to an opinion they disagree with, with respect. I admire those who research things before forming an opinion (for example: political rumors). I admire people who are friendly, kind, funny, inviting, trustworthy, unique, respectful, motivated, accomplished, confident, good w/ children, giving, understanding, listeners... I admire those, who, despite horrible abuse, can still find the strength (from both God and themselves) to rise above and/or help others. I admire good fathers and mothers, especially despite not having one or both as good role models for themselves. I admire mothers, daughters and sisters who are also close friends w/out misusing those roles. Lastly, I admire people who are highly intelligent - I wish I could get the things they get!! *Job Hunters' Corner

Re-enlightenment is in the realization of the fact that we have only the present moment to live. |

Ditto, didn't see any reason to rewrite this as it's everything I was already thinking when I saw the question. :) Laurie "Good decisions come from wisdom, wisdom comes from experience, experience comes from making bad decisions." |

| Posted almost 5 years ago I admire someone who draws no lines among people, who blends in well with all types of folks without being false about it. People have all different sides about them, but many choose to not "lower" themselves to admit it and it's sad what they miss. In every person there is something special and all you have to do is be open to getting to know someone to find it. "There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you."

| Posted almost 5 years ago I admire honesty and integrity. Tell me the truth no matter what you think I may say or do. I might just surprise you. I also admire my dad. As kids he pounded this statement into our heads and I've never forgot. Mean what you say and say what you mean. |
