Why Are You Awesome?

I'm borrowing a page from
cereta, who asked for those reading to answer her question, "Why are you awesome?" So I'm asking the same thing.
I'm awesome because I made this icon.
By which I mean: When I drew this icon's image I was thinking of Indian art and American folk art I'd seen recently, consciously trying to create an image that drew from several different artistic traditions, and I like that creativity and love of diversity in my nature.
I drew this to use as a winter holiday card, to please people, because I like making people happy with little things like pretty, unusual cards. I figured out how to scan it and create an icon from it, which is no great feat of technology in the grand scheme of things but which was a bit of an accomplishment for me.
So. My awesomeness in 100x100 form.
Also, when I lost the image, I was able to ask my friends for copies of it and was sent a couple, so I am awesome for having chosen awesome friends. *laugh at myself*
