It was really alarming for me to see how low the group's self esteem was, so to boost their self- esteem I assigned each of them someone else in the group to describe. After reading them what an anonymous member wrote about them, I could tell that they were all touched. I knew from the beginning that the four seniors are close friends, but they were surprised to see how their friends perceive them.
Purple said, "I'm really happy! After hearing all of that I just feeling running up to whoever said that and hugging them. This really does affect my self esteem completely. I know that even people who are self confident need to be reminded through complements just how amazing they really are. It's really nice to see how others see me."
Red said, "This really did boost my self esteem, knowing that someone thinks of me this way! I'm in complete awe. It's really sweet to know someone thinks so highly of me. This is just a super nice feeling that I rarely ever feel."
Green said, "This is perfect! I'm so intrigued right now. I can't believe how sincere my person was. I don't know who wrote this, but I need to thank them from the bottom of my heart, and thank them immensely!"
Blue said, "I would never think in a million years that someone would think of me this way. No one has ever really genuinely called me beautiful before, and I'm just so shocked. I really love this. My self esteem just sky rocketed."
I wanted these seniors to really understand how amazing and needed they really are. I know that with everything going on around them that they needed this boost to remind them how worthy of love and worship they truly are. I really think this was the perfect way to wrap up our sessions.
