    Its hard to say without knowing anything about you... Try something like "I am an ocean wave" With your attributes being strength, power, the fact that you are constantly changing, and full of mystery... blah blah blah. =)

    Or you could go with something like a cloud (on a warm summers day), being shy and graceful.

    I think mainly what you wnat to do is focus on things in nature and what makes them so special. Often you can easily apply their properties to yourself.

    =) Hope I helped.

    I am your favorite "truth be told" teller, or the kind you dream about.

    I am going with your thoughts, currently, convincing, and trying, tiring, and ever intriguing.

    But mostly, I am peace of mind. Because in the end I have won, and you are mine.

    aha. sorry. i dont think that's hippie-ish, but metaphors are kind of my thing. i hope this helped a little.

    I am a blanket, comforting the sad!

    I am a cloud, soft and distant!

    I am a speaker, loud and informative!

    I am a mouse, quiet but nosy!

    Those aren't very good, but I need to know what you are! Example: quiet

    That way I can give you a more exact metaphor!

    Hope I helped and please pick me for the best answer!

    I am the voice of the wind and the calming rain I am the voice of your hunger and pain. I am your lungs in wich you breathe everyday, I am the tears that you wipe away. I am the beat of your heart in your chest, I am your eyes that need to rest. Good night. How was that?

    I am a boat

    Tossing and turning on a turbulant sea

    My journey has begun

    And is continuing ....

    (Tell me a little about yourself and I'll think up a more apt metaphor for you!)

    I am iridescent and sparkle like diamonds in the night sky, and reflect like the sun on a summers day.

    you could personify something inanimate wi a theme or something.

    ie) i am an ocean, the rain, a lighthouse, a violin, blah blah blah

    or an animal

    ie) bird

    something that sounds abstract.
