Hello friends...
I really enjoyed our discussion of our questions. I think the format we used forced us think about our questions like we hadn't before. I've been thinking about our discussion of my question "Is it more important to improve the quality of my life or to improve the quality of others' lives?" Like I said this question was born out of my uncertainty about the idea of constantly "needing to improve". This idea seems to be prevalent in the media and the professional world. One point brought up was that maybe improving ourselves will help improve others. I thought a lot about this and agree that this could be possible. I also thought that maybe the opposite is true, that improving the quality of others lives may improve your own. In either case, I think it all comes down to one's intention. I remember Brad acrimoniously saying "Always room for improvement". The strengths finder activities makes me wonder if we can be "the total package", or even if we should bother. I believe we should celebrate our strengths and use those gifts, with the finest intentions, to the best of our abilities. Sorry for being a kook...
