Today's session was all about Values. My homework for today was to choose 8 values that were important to me. I selected mine from a list she had. We then had to write why that value was important.
These are the ones I chose:
- Children
- Good physical health
- Good mental health
- Family stability
- Close friends
- Education
- Traditions
- Love
It's interesting having to identify things that are important to me. Most of you who know me probably could have guessed at least half that list.. And if you're trying to figure out why I'm having to do this, my best guess is that this list, combined with this week's homework of identifying my boundaries and limits, is to help me flesh out behaviors, what I like and don't like.. And focusing more on the positive ones that I value. Clearly, I'm not the one with this particular degree, so I'm guessing, but it makes sense.
Now what was very amusing about this session was her keying into my sense of humor. I wear humor like armor. It protects me, it helps me deal with things, plus, when not faced with something bad, it's just.. well, FUN!
So she was asking me questions, and I was giving my normal answers with a bit of humor, probably a bit of self-deprecating humor, cause why not? And she was trying very hard to not crack up. So she finally looked at me very seriously and said...
"Have you ever considered stand up comedy?"
Hahaha...
