Ask what I think of NOLA and the answer is simple. I feel like apart of me will forever love NOLA. It is full of life, adventure and music.
I love my class and I love all the people that took the class. I enjoy all that they have to offer in and out of the classroom. I feel as though trip trip has to New Orleans has united us and will forver unite us should we choose to untie with one another and really(truthfull) get along with one another. It been tough really connecting with group and hard to decern how they each individually felt about the diveristy issues we talked about. We eventually found connection in preparation for the trip and I found a way to relate with the class by commiting all that I am to the discussion and group activities. My first real break was occured when assigned to work on a project with Taylor. We got right to and gave a steller presentation. A channel for friendship was opened we all has gone well. Serveal lines of friendship and communication are open thanks to the class structure and will of my classmates open up to one another. I'm truly blessed.
The best part of our class is our will to deal with contenious issue and realte with on another on all levels. We all come several distinct and different walks of life. Amanda and Gavin are elementary education major; Taylor is an athlete; Josh is soon to be a married man and small town folk; Laura is also a small town folk, athletic, bursting with life and blissfull. Bri is exocentric, undenialble straght forward and a real wonder of amazement. If fact thye all are full of amazement and I could write an entire thesis like Soesbe on each individual character. They each have so much to offer the school, themselves and each other.
We all have to learn from one another and have a lot to learn. I'm really eager to find out what we all have to offer because so far its a blast. We get along, joke with each other, and on some level understand one another. Tonight we all share childhood memories after we listed the house rules, and pinned them to the wall. Lauru then spontaneously led a all willing participants all in an excersie workout prompting subsequent workouts to ensue. Its a blast and I love everysingle moment I've had with the lot. I don't think I or the group will encounter any dilemas because we have all resolved to reslove any issue and be honest.
I have resloved to complete honesty, and opened myself to others. I'd be damned if I didn't.
I'll pick up where I left tomorrrow we all have to be up early to seee the Lord in church.
Incomplete Thought & Points of interest & Continued Disscussion
We are grapling with some real, deep, emotional, and contentious issues steming from poverty to racism and I really appreciated how real and personal this has is for me. The class has I'm reavealing parts of mysleft no else was priveleage to experience or know of. My life is evoling as I open up to the world and see into the life of my classmate and the city of new orleans. connected we

ReplyDeleteGreat post...it is tough to truly open up to others. This makes you vulnerable and subject to being judged and ridiculed. It takes time to bond and trust. However, in the end it is worth it for yourself and because this process opens up so many more possibilities. We don't have to agree with each other...but no matter what we can appreciate and respect each other. Keep the door open. You will be amazed on how you can grow and how you can help others grow.
