On Arrival Writing Question: *C10 AFFIRMING

What do you appreciate about yourself and why do you appreciate it?

Edwin

In terms of the Empathy work, I appreciate my dedication and perseverance in working on it. Because, for effectiveness and to make real personal and social empathic change, this is needed.

I also appreciate my willingness to step into the unknown, like set up the empathy tent, even if I have to do it by myself. There is a sense of pushing into the unknown. Maybe an adventurous,, trying something new.

Did world traveling like this after high school, leaving my home and traveling around the world for 10 years.

Varsha

I appreciate about myself is that I am courageous, independence and free because it helps me take action at the time of vulnerability and be who I am

Bill : I appreciate that I’ve become comfortable with who I am. I am happy that other people’s happiness and progress has been my priority for the length of my professional career. The reward that came was not from some fuzzy future payoff, but the experience of the depth of human despair, and how its greatness is also always present, ready to overcome. I love that I love being in nature and photograph the beauty that I see. I’m happy that I’m discussing a culture of empathy. It is the one practice that will protect us against calamity, and provide a secure basis to reach for the stars, both literally and figuratively. I like this guy!

Peter

I’m not able to answer this question! How strange.

Cielja

I appreciate about myself that I always get my students to a joyful and moment of laughter even if the topics are heavy.
