Assignment Takeaway 5:
Self and identity are two of the most important things when finding your true self. No one understands you better than yourself. In the assignment I talked about self and identity because to me those are two things that are very different in their own ways. Self is like your own personal way and identity is the way you identify yourself to others. Although self identity goes together some people may know their identity but not themselves personally. You have to be able to understand yourself so that everyone else around you can as well. It is the same with your identity. People want to know how you identify yourself, so that they have a better understanding of who you are as a person. Over the years I have figured out who I was and who I wanted to be. I know how I identify myself, so that all of my friends and family as well as other people can know the real me.
Assignment Takeaway 2:
I actually enjoyed writing this assignment about the values that mean the most to me as an American. I feel like I learned so much after explaining my values and realizing how much of an impact they have made on my life. Values are important for a person character because they show the type of person you are and what you believe. One thing I learned from this assignment was that everyone has different values and not everyone views our values the same. I choose this picture because it represents the changes I have made to my lifestyle in order to better myself and just appreciate nature as a whole.

I think this is a great assignment to engage more in the course. I feel like this opportunity gives us so much room to grow within the course.
