Personality Traits
I was talking to my wife one day. I told her that if I had to give up all my personality traits and I could only keep one, I would keep my audacity.
What personality trait would you never want to give up?

Hello, I just posted on your featured comment post and thought I would come in and check ya out. I realize you are from Springfield, IL area….I am only about 25 miles south of Springfield. I had no clue you were in my area! lol To answer your question,I think mine would have to be thoughtfulness.

my sense of self.
also, you can use ctrl+A to highlight all parts of a post of it’s hard to read. just a tip, hehe.
ah, that isn’t really a trait. my self-assuredness (is that a word?).
Definatly my sense of humor.
And thanks for the invite thingy via e-mail.
I would never ever give up my biting caustic wit.
Because, it’s mean, funny and intelligent..
but because it’s funny, it’s not really mean
and because it’s intelligent it’s not inaccurate.
My honesty/geuineness.
<3
Curiosity, without a doubt.
Creativity!
truthfulness/love … but I believe that you cannot have one without the other…
MY INNER HARDCORE BITCH – It takes me to places where I need to be. Like directly in the middle of the Christian Mosh Pit on a Saturday night.
My compasion

a personality trait alone is worthless. the blend of personality traits you have is what makes you unique
my passion for everything i do. without it, i wouldn’t get very far.
compassion
Spunky-ness. Yes, it is a word, as I have declared it such.
yes i do realize that you can’t read half my post, but i also do realize that there is a highlight option and scroll option.

My ability to look past the outside and see what really counts….the soul of a person.

just cause i think this is a good place to let people know, my site is one for prayer requests, so anyone who has one can leave it here and i’ll would love to pray for you!
God bless,
marian
Audacity, that’s pretty bold Dan. I would have to say I would keep my general disinterest in life. Not caring all that much makes everything so much more tolerable.
caring
caring (the last one was me, srry. I forget to get out of the other logged in sn)
silly boy…it’s not possible to only have one trait!
My know-it-all attitude.
My ravishing good looks.
Kidding…..
My ability to relax!!!
I’d say my sense of humor
i did take them. thank you, dan.
i wouldnt want to let go of my quirks. they can be horrible, but they certainly are me.
compassion
intelligence, definitely. I value that part of myself the most.
Faith
intelligence, which is what allows me to be all those other things I love about myself: creative, open-minded, eager to learn, etc.
The ability to love. Or honesty.
loyalty and just be myself. haha`
My sense of humor.

Constant attempts at perfection. (Notice I said “attempts”)
My wit and sense of humour
self knowledge.
RYC:
“fish for a two year old”
That is probably the safest choice. I am going to talk to my daughter. Maybe we should go ahead and get the temp controlled tank and all. Hmmm…I guess we would have to plug the temp controller into a UPS that could sustain it for several hours in case of a power outage. That could get expensive.
I don’t know. Tropical fish are sensitive to temps below 70 degrees F.
Thanks for the advice, though.
L,r
forgivness.
My optimism.
belief
passion for life, peace, and love
my passion…even though it can be a bad thing sometimes, I wouldn’t ever want to give it up
The trait that lets me stand up to people and not be run over. I’d hate to be like my sister.
open-mindedness.
my loving nature. i prayed for it, not knowing how hard it could be, and i would NEVER want to give that up.
Wow, that’s a hard one. I have quite a few qualities I would hate to give up. Guess my sense of humor is what gets me through the bad times though so that’s the one I pick.
I was going to say sense of humor but then I saw someone else answer creativity and I think I have to go with that one instead….
Loyalty.
I think that, like most, I want to keep more than 1…
Being a good listener, or however you would word that particular trait
*~Christi~*
Humor.
If you’re not laughing you’re not living.
Empathy.
I just added you to my “list”, come on back and enjoy the ride……..
Compassion.
forgiving
I’m pretty easy-going, and I would like to keep that part of me at all costs. Maybe not all costs….I would like to keep it
Curiosity/Openness to experience
empathy.
sarcasm
creativity
my loyalty?
or, honesty.
my compassion
spontaneity
Well, my first thought was honesty. I think it’s rare and undervalued in our culture. But then I could say kindness. That’s a very important trait. And I saw someone said faith — probably the most important one, but I could argue that it’s not really a personality trait, more like a gift and the essence of who I am, so I think I get to keep that one regardless. . .How ’bout my indecisiveness?
my stupid optimism..or is it my optimistic stupidiy
ardor
Compassion.
stubborness
WORK ETHIC
Only one huh? Hmm.. The ablility to laugh at myself. Wait! No…. My easy-going nature that makes people feel comfortable, and willingness to trust me. So, whatever that is, I want to keep it.
Being outgoing.
You know what I noticed? Many a time when you comment on my xanga, you don’t answer the whole thing itself, you’ll just pick one little sentence and say something on that. It’d be like me saying to this post, “If I had a wife I would talk to her everyday.” well ok, that’s a bad example. But you know what i mean.
My sense of humor. If you have nothing else, I’d damn sure want the ability to laugh about it.
sarcasm
My ability to smell…..bullshit.
Faith
My creativity. =]
[ariana]
Wit.
manners – that includes just about everything like loyalty, kindness, humor, etc. etc.
the joker part
Humor
my sense of humor
The personality that I would keep would have to be my sense of responsibility!!!!!!!!
i dunno. probably my honesty. i always try to be real with people…
my humble & down to earth spirit.
Curiosity.
my confidence, becoz it took so long to gain it.
being me and no one else. my refusal to be anyone else.
I would never want to give up my personality. It’s my identity and it is what makes my social life so great. Although, if I HAD to give up my personality and just leave one trait it would be my determination.
Courage.
being a genuine person
Persistance
yeah im not really sure i dont think i have many personality trait i mean i do but i dont if that makes sence but i think i would choose my weirdness because that kinda makes me, well me..
passion

**i love my girlfriend julia and i dont whant to give that up for A-N-Y reason…
..Renamation/papalapadingdong/**Devon**
My inability to understand quick witted jokes
authenticity
> I’d have to agree with audacity; I reserve the right to call something what it is and accept the fallout thereof…
Peace
Gotta keep my silly. I believe you are familiar with my work. I’m good at silly and given the choice between levity and gravity, I’ll take the former.
wow dan
how did you get to be so popular anyways?
but the ability to be unique, definately =)
Cordiality
being tough and going against everything people tell me I am not able to do
