On this weekly episode, we honor the 1st episode of 2022. As the new year starts, it brings with it a feeling of retrospection. Generally, reflection is a process of exploring and examining ourselves, our perspectives, attributes, experiences, actions, and interactions. It helps us gain insight and see how to move forward. 2021 has passed and as I look back, I am able to stand proud of some of my accomplishments. Naturally, there are also faults and shortcomings that I seek to improve. I'm striving to improve upon 2021, learning from my mistakes while not being hypocritical of my errors. As I reflect, one of my biggest areas for improvement is having empathy for the feelings and emotions of others. I yearn to gain the virtue of acceptance. Being more comfortable with allowing others to have a right to be their own unique, personal view is one of my personal goals this year...Growing to encompass the ability to respectfully observe others as they experience and process their own feelings, thoughts, and opinions. Resisting the urge to change them into the person I want them to be but instead to accept them for who they are. #Westsideonmines is one of my most-used catchphrases... and it means so many things. Do you want to know why? Come with me as we take a look Under The Armor.
