| This page is to list of things that I really like I was going to do a list of my pet peeves (=things I can't stand), which is basically complaining. But then I asked myself, "Does anyone really become happier by complaining? Or complaining in such a way as if I think the world owes me something?" So hopefully, this list will be a little more positive and affirming than what I was originally going to do. Lik-See The List: Things that I Really Like 1. When I see someone willing to accept criticism, not just compliments. (03/08/04) 2. When you drive on a given day and every light that you come to turns green. (03/08/04) 3.
