A fun album, just about me, that was the purpose of taking Shimelle's You Think You Know Me online class. I love her classes and I always learn from the experience of taking one, but this class has turned into so much more than I anticipated.

It all started with the workbook which contains prompts to help you define yourself in terms of different moods, happy, sad, angry, brainy, creative etc. You'd think it would be easy right? I mean, who doesn't know what makes them happy. Umm, yeah, hello? Me!! I was astounded at how hard this was. So, it has turned into Do I know Me?

Do I? I used to, a long time ago - was sure of who I was & very secure in all of "that" - scratch that, not secure actually. Not sure secure is the word I want, but I thought I knew who I was. Maybe I've never known me. You'd think that it's something that ought to be second nature - they're just questions right? Shouldn't be too hard to figure out what makes me "fill in the blank with your emotion of choice".

It's been an eye opener. I haven't completed my workbook yet, but I have figured out some of the things in it, and I'm moving forward, and hunting for answers, and getting to know myself a little bit better along the way.
