What Are Your Teen’s Unique Talents?
By
I SEE YOU
In the recent movie “Avatar” the natives of a garden planet greeted each other with the words “I see you.” It was the deepest form of respect that one person could show another. What they were saying is that I see you for who you really are. How often do you feel seen in this way?
WHAT ARE YOUR UNIQUE GIFTS?
It seems to me that each of of us has something unique to share with the world. For those of you who are artists, are you finding ways to honor your gift of creative expression? Perhaps your music or writing will help someone along their journey.
ASSISTING OTHERS
Not everyone is meant to be a performer or artist. Sometimes, being a good listener, or lending a helping hand can make all the difference in someone’s life. Volunteering to assist others less fortunate than you is one of the most generous thing you can do with your spare time.
PEOPLE ARE INTER-DEPENDENT
We are all dependent upon each other. Someone else grows your food, makes your clothes, and builds your homes and schools. In the teen years, you are old enough to start reflecting on how you would like to contribute in the world.
