Confidence Part 1 (April 27, 2014)

When we did the session on self- esteem I was shocked to realize that the members in my group either had low self- esteem or average. I want to change this! I was determined to give them each a little more confidence. When I asked each of them how they see themselves, none said that they think highly of themselves. I made a worksheet and assigned each one of them to answer some questions on someone else in the group. In front of the group, I read each of them what someone else had to say of them so that they could realize that although they don't think highly of them self, others sure do. 

What red had to say about purple: Purple is friendly, unselfish, and thoughtful. He is thoughtful, and kind, and he always put others before himself. He can always find a way to make you smile, and even if he's in a bad mood, he doesn't let that affect everyone else. He enjoys making people laugh. He's a great friend to have and it's always a good time with him. Purple is funny, kindhearted, humble, and selfless. I think he'll do great in college, I don't worry about him at all because I know he will do good and always make the right choices. He takes initiative, is caring, funny, humble, happy, and trustworthy. Purple is really good at making you smile, especially when you need it, but he's best a being a friend. He will be successful in whatever he chooses to do, and he will be happy because he has friends and family that love, care, and support him. I'll remember him as a really funny guy who always had my back and would always make my day without even trying. I will remember him as a good friend that I hold very close to my heart.
What blue had to say about red: Red is a kindhearted, smart, and relatable person. She's funny, generous, weird (but the good kind), but most importantly, she's kind. Red is really good at being a good friend, she has the ability to make your day, just by being there. I know she would be there for me, through whatever. She's the kind of person who would do anything to make sure you have just what you need to be happy. Red's personality defines her big heart and humble mindset. I think red is going to perfectly fine in college, she's a smart girl who'll be okay with whatever is thrown at her. Red may not be motivated, but she'll get her stuff done. She's good at public speaking, English, being a noble friend, and lighting up someone's day. Her weird humor can make anyone laugh. I know red will be someone in life. She'll be, someday, very successful but also content with her life. Although I know she's a little scared for college, she'll be okay. I'm going to remember red as someone who's heart could take up a whole room and who's kind personality was really appreciated. 
What purple had to say about green: Green is smart, loyal, and is like family to me. I love his undying loyalty for his friends and family. He's fun to be around, he's a good person to talk to, and is trustworthy. Green is the type of guy that you want as a friend just because he brings a different dynamic. He's also someone that I would go to for support or if I needed help with anything. Based on his attitude, I would say that if he finds the thing that gives him the most happiness, he will excel immensely and will most likely be the best at it. He is smart, kind, humble, humorous, supportive, hardworking, practical, straight forward, and honest. He's good at math, being a great friend, sticking to his gut, supporting his opinions, listening, and creating the mood. He'll go all out if he needs to. He is the perfect balance of strong minded and kind hearted, and because of this, I'm sure the future holds a lot for him. He's going to meet great people and be great at whatever he intends on doing. 
What green had to say about blue: Blue is genuine, amazing, and goofy. I love her smile and her ability to light up a room. I'm friends with her for so many reasons, but mostly because I need her to lean on and although she doesn't know it, I genuinely need her. Blue is down to earth, beautiful, caring, and simply amazing. I know that in college she'll do amazing and she will succeed. I truly believe this. Blue is good at literally everything, just as long as she puts effort into it.  She'll be successful in any way she wants. She has a special ability to excel in anything she wants. I know for a fact she will be someone. Blue is the greatest friend imaginable. She is my rock. I will remember her by the way her smile could light up a room. Although she is insecure, she is the most beautiful young girl. I actually won't ever have to remember her because she will always be by my side.

I could see it in their eyes when I read them what someone else had to say about them that they got very emotional. So for part 2, I want to know exactly how they felt.
