On learning:
The lesson
I learned this expedition was outside of school. I learned that in order to
make my words have value I need to speak up for myself. I sometimes get
trampled on and my feelings get hurt, however I don’t do anything about it. I
just don’t say anything and I carry the damage inside. This expedition some
people were exceptionally rude to me and I just kept my words in and ended up
feeling terrible. Another lesson that I learned also has to do with the power
of words. When I ask people to do stuff when I am yoda and they don’t do it, I
go ahead and do their job for them. Because I am making requests and when
people don’t follow through my words have no meaning. So I might as well not
say anything at all. So I am trying really hard to be forceful and direct yet
not be mean about it. I want to get my point across but not in a rude way yet I
also want to be able to speak up for myself when people are mistreating and
disrespecting me.
