what is a good thing in yrself?

Source(s): Survival -- Survivor of a short disaster of a marriage to a violent, abusive, mentally ill ex-spouse. Raised TWO disabled children (who inherited the genetic trace of mental illnesses from the ex's family) to Adulthood/Independence. HAD to be good with my tools/hands -- HAD to repair/Maintain everything that either the ex or the children damaged, broke, or in some way tried to destroy in the home, car and anywhere else. RESPONSIBLE because I HAD to be -- Deadbeat Dad for an EX. STRONG in Mind (Paid my own way through UGrad and Grad Degrees), Body (Survived Spousal Abuse), and Spirit (for even approximately a decade and half after divorce -- and the Ex and an Adult child Burglarizing my residence, I STILL am Able to go on in faith that I WILL Survive and I will be able to be further blessed -- maybe not in this life, but afterwards). NOW am learning NEW skills by going BACK to College as a Retiree for Fun -- (now in Golf Lessons, will be taking Website development and Digital Photography Next Semester). Constantly tackle big Home Renovation Projects -- one at a time (removing Wall-to-Wall Carpeting and laying my own tile, Repairing Electrical, Replacing Light Fixtures, Putting in own Wireless Net, Repair my own computers, etc). I also do what I can everywhere else -- including yardwork -- even though I have multiple injuries (including damage to my back, legs, feet) from the Spousal Abuse) ALL these are things I get complimented on by others -- and the fact that I am now an Empty Nester Single (and people even tell me I look so much more RELAXED and less stressed) is great.
