then, but if I had the knowledge I have now, this argument would’ve been nonexistent. When we started high school, we didn’t have many classes together. We probably had one. Aside from the end of the day, that was the only time we actually got to talk. So our solution to this was to start a journal that only Jennifer and I could read and write in it. In this journal, we would alternate writing on each page about anything we wanted. Normally, we wrote about what we were doing, or random…

The second thing I wish had been different is that I wish that I had learned more about how to talk about sensitive subjects, when I came back from the session I took a minute to read the chapter in the NIA booklet “Talking with your Older Patient” about sensitive subjects, but I did not seem to find the answers I wanted. When talking with our resident I realized that she had experienced a lot of loss in her life, her son, her grandson, and her sister. Although she played it off like it was…

The one person that stands out to me as a mediator is Oprah Winfrey. I regard her as a mediator because she brought joys that enriched human life at the deepest level and continues to do so. On her talk show, The Oprah Winfrey Show, she consoled guests and members in the audience when they had challenges with family, finances, relationships and etcetera. She has a caring, compassionate way about herself that makes people open up and confide in her…

candy. One day I was on the school bus and some girl was making fun of me because I wasn 't American and judging me the way I look. So, I went to the school office asked the office lady if I can talk to the principal and she said he is not here and he going be so busy all week. I was mad because I need to talk to him and he wasn 't there. I went next week to…

It was the night before I was to begin my first job and I knew I needed a good night 's sleep. However , I was a nervous wreck ! Every time I closed my eyes, I envisioned the disasters that could occur the next day at my restaurant training. Just the thought of talking to a building full of people almost paralyzed me with fear , let alone taking them glasses full of liquids or plates of steaming food. Needless to say , I am hardly ever in what would considered “ normal” situations with everyday…

sessions started. If I had to do it again, I would want a client where engaging with him/her is the most important part of the Motivational Interviewing process. In my first reflection I talked about how great I thought I was at listening to my client talk about his or her goals. The first couple of sessions with my client, I thought it was a complete success. The first day we talked about how the professionals needed to allow the patient to do the majority of the talking with very little…

time to pay it off so the reality does not set in until later down the road. The chapter also talks about “intemporal” choices, which are the choices between something now and something later. They say that “intemporal” choices are the choices that we most often have to make, and the choices that we make have a significant outcome on our success in life, especially our financial success. The chapter talks a lot about how in the past our society was focused on long term success and rewards but…

Together but alone which mean people exist in the room, but they actually not talking together and they are busy on their phone. Many people have addictive in their phone and usually not aware around them, which mean they usually do not have friends or talk a lot and usually they being shy when sitting with another person even though they know each other. For example, someone prefers to text on the phone and has a better skill then speak with others. Actually, when he/she sits with parent or…

Personally, I feel like race is a difficult subject to talk about. I never want to step on anyone’s toes, and I feel as if I don’t have the right to talk about race. I have never experienced a disadvantage because of the color of my skin, but I am aware that I am held at different standards because I am white. I realize that racism is an issue that many people deal with on a daily basis. Therefore, I try to be aware of my biases and try learn more about myself. The presentation and the film…

but a toxic relationship has four more key parts: you can’t do anything right, you can’t enjoy good moments with this person, you can’t be yourself around this person, and they won’t let you grow and change (Bowlin). She wouldn’t be someone I’d even talk to if these other aspects were present in our relationship. The communication climate sets the tone for how valued people feel in a relationship (338). Therefore, in a negative communication climate there would be a person who feels less valued…
