Today, people all over the world seem very similar to what we used to previously label as gifted. I think my answers to this questionnaire are shared by us all and reflect as much about ourselves as it does about the growing positivity shared by today's global society.

*I do at times get frustrated. I've even stomped my feet up and down in protest of negativity. Today, when I protest, I go jump up and down on the trampoline.

I just want to send out the biggest possible BOOST of POSTIIVE ENERGIE that I can send because POSITIVITY naturally invites us all to EMBRACE LIFE in all its complexities - and in its simplicities.
