Coffee Oasis My Story Workshop 1/16/2021

I love getting to hear others stories and processing with others. This training and ministry is awesome. I love every bit of it.

I really appreciated this whole day. I came to a few realizations about myself and my life thanks to the activities. I feel closer to God which is something I really needed.

I love you guys so much. Keep in touch. I’m so thankful for everybody here at this table!

I think the one thing I came away with the most is realizing that I need to better understand my emotions. I have a hard time encouraging others because I’m a crier, so it’s hard for me to feel other people’s pain without crying; then I’m not able to help. I guess what I’m saying is that my emotions seem to get in the way. But better understanding my story will hopefully help me to compose myself better so I can engage with others instead of avoiding those types of conversations.
___
I love Summit! Let’s do it again.
___
My ability to empathize and listen has improved a lot. I hope to remember and keep practicing.
