I am a very sarcastic
person; it is how my family has joked all my life. I have been challenged to not be sarcastic or
negative for the next three months. It
has been in a word:
Difficult
It is
very hard to completely change the way you communicate. My friends have me do push-ups whenever I say
something sarcastic or negative. I’m
pretty sure I am going to be more muscular by the end of the three months… Whenever I am at my internship it tends to be
a lot easier than when I am at work. At
work there is no real accountability, and if there were I could not exactly
just stop in the middle of the deli (I work at Kroger deli) and start doing
push-ups.
Hope
I hope
that this experience grows me, and helps me to have real conversations with
people. I want to come out of this
experience with a better foundation for relationships.
