Week 2, Blog Assignment
Relationships are important to me because they help
you to draw a bond to something or someone which helps you to feel valued and worthwhile.
Healthy relationships help you to connect to your inner self because you can
let yourself go when your around someone that makes you feel valued and it
helps you to have a better understanding of who and what you are.
I value my relationship that I have with the LORD very much , but there are many people that I have positive
relationships with as well and the most important ones are my family. My mother is very
important to me because she has always taught me the value of self. My father,
he has taught me the value of self confidence and being sure of yourself and
never letting anyone take anything that you have accomplished and diminishing its
worth. My husband who always is supportive and encouraging to me and keeps me grounded, and last but
least my son because he gives me the courage to take on the world to protect
him. I will always value each of these relationships because they truly make me
who I am today.
It is very difficult dealing with
people in general and I always say you are very lucky if you have a supportive
family because you can pick your friends but you can never pick your family. In many cases people do not get the family that they can bond with. If you have
a friend that is not supportive or makes you feel fulfilled you can always make
new friends but with family it is not that easy. If you do have a supportive
family that encourages you then you should value and treasure that experience because
you are lucky to have that.
My family keeps me grounded along with the LORD, and
I can trust in them and we have built a partnership in the value of our trust.
I feel that I would not have succeeded in the capacity that I have if it were
not for them building and sustaining the partnership that we have connected
with.
I have learned the
value of building healthy partnerships and healthy relationships and with this
characteristic embedded in me that allows me to understand the significance this
influence can have on someone’s life and with that being said that allows me to
take this gift into my classrooms and pass it along to the children and adults
that I encounter. If they are not exposed to healthy relationships then they
will not know how to treasure them when one is laid upon them and that is why
it is my responsibility as an early educator to influence them as much as
possible with a healthy bond that they may never forget
