D3 – What Kind of Person Attracts You?

My husband.

I’m going to answer this from a different perspective than typical “attraction” – because my husband is so much more than my best friend, and he is really a blessing from God. I am thoroughly attracted to him, and I think that overall, that makes for such a short post in this particular contest.

So how about people I’m drawn to?

Grouchy old people. Okay, I’m a sap for elderly people in general – I love when they delight over babies, and small wonders, and I love how they strike up conversations about what once was. But I particularly love grouchy old people. I don’t know why, in fact, I often feel a sense of sadness over their grouchiness and bitterness. I always try to find a way to make them smile. I wonder, often, what trials made them so hard, and if that hard shell will crack and break and fall away before the end of their lifetime.

I am also deeply drawn to people who love Jesus fiercely and openly. They remind me to  be bold with my faith, focused in my pursuit of Christ, and they spread hope every where they go. I can’t help but be drawn to and inspired by them.

So how about you, what kind of person are you drawn to?

  1. Broken souls, or struggling individuals. I am drawn to helping fix. Fix whatever is not working smoothly in their lives and to help them see their own situation with a sliver of positivity!

  2. I sometimes find that grouchy people can be funny, especially the elderly. About the only time people see me as funny is when I’m being cantankerous.

    I am also drawn to those who know and love the Lord.
