      <description>I was arrested, and convicted of possessing a small amount of an outlawed green flowering plant.  It is my 5th time to be convicted of a crime related to the personal use of that plant.  I was sentenced to 10 days in county jail, a year of probation, 120 hours of community service, a drug and alcohol evaluation with possible treatment (duration and cost to be chosen by a private, for profit, treatment center), and fines and fees totaling $1014.</description>

      <description>Okay, I'll bite.  What's up with this "going to jail" descriptor that you've now mentioned twice?&#xD;
&#xD;
Enquiring minds, and all that.&#xD;

      <description>I AM&#xD;
everything else will seem true for a while, then false again&#xD;
there is a limited self and a limitless self&#xD;
I am the limitless self, yet the expression is through this limited self&#xD;
to be extremely honest, would be so speak from the limitless self as that is what I am... though the walk from the limited self... with it's baggage of mind concepts brings disorientation</description>

      <description>Okay, I'll go first...and no, I'm not trying to turn this into some self-help forum.  It's actually very much in keeping with the "EH" theme.&#xD;
&#xD;
I am:&#xD;
resourceful&#xD;
resilient&#xD;
adaptive&#xD;
analytical&#xD;
not quite as intelligent as I'd like to be, but&#xD;
aware of my shortcomings&#xD;
disarming&#xD;
youthful&#xD;
strong&#xD;
soft&#xD;
sexy&#xD;
brazen&#xD;
curious&#xD;
just deep enough to realize how very shallow I can be&#xD;
stressed, but&#xD;
relatively content&#xD;
curvy&#xD;
wishful that I wasn't quite so curvy&#xD;
diplomatic as needed&#xD;
and striving for extreme honesty&#xD;

      <description>...any of the usual adjectives you employ upon meeting someone for the first time.  &#xD;
&#xD;
This was an exercise we did during my Improv for the Spirit workshop last month.  It was pretty bizarre.  The first step is to write down all of the things you normally say when being introduced.  I just wrote an "I am" at the top of the page and then listed all of the things I, or others, might offer as an explanation for my existence.&#xD;
I am: a single mother; a chef; a student; a daughter...etc&#xD;
&#xD;
Then begin a new "I am" list without using any of those terms.  WOW!  I found it pretty challenging myself.  A few others seemed to have an easier time with it, and still others that couldn't seem to come up with anything remotely positive.  Anyway, the reason I am posting this NOW, a full month later, is because it's one of the few things that keeps coming back to me IRL.  It's been incredibly cathartic and freeing to intentionally avoid all of those "So, what do YOU do?" convo's and steer it into inquiries about some other person's self-perceived nature, or personality or abilities and talents.  It's also made for some really amazing conversations.&#xD;
&#xD;
*just a small disclaimer: this doesn't seem to have much of an effect on folks in the insurance or auto industries for some reason.  &#xD;
