    To the person who felt like they learn slower than others and struggle with math, I feel you. I wasn’t good at math and reading in elementary school, so I often got pulled out of class to work on those things. I kept working hard and became more studious, and by the end of high school, reading and math had become my strong suits lol.
    As an adult, I realize now that learning slow wasn’t because I was stupid. I just take a bit more time to process new information because I need to connect it with something else that I know. But once I learn something, I become better at it than those that learned it faster. I end up teaching them how to do it later lol. Stay dedicated and determined, focused and hard working. Don’t give up on yourself. :)

      I only hope that the priest in question isn't miserable in his role as a consequence of his loss of faith. The guy who read it out gave a good answer - it's very true that there is a worth in the service you provide others as a priest. However, should it be at the cost of your own happiness and conviction, and aren't there services you can provide to the community that would help people without sacrificing yourself? I'm not sure all people could be, nor _should_ they be, expected to stay in a role they no longer embody simply for the sake of serving others, especially if they feel like they're lying to people and themselves by repeating scriptures they don't believe. Is the cost too high? Only the individual can say.

It makes people not want to trust others especially teachers. Like whether it's a dumb question or not just answer it. It's just a question.

    • @Erizedd
      @Erizedd 2 роки тому +4

      When I worked as an SLSO (teacher's aide) a few years back I'd always make a point of recognising students who typically struggled with certain subjects because they had a pace or method of learning that didn't always line up with the teacher's ways of teaching - simply put, not everyone deemed "slow" is actually slow, but often just learn in a different way (some learn from reading it on paper, some learn from demonstrations, etc), or have preoccupations with issues in their home/social life. I think I empathised with kids like that cos once upon a time I WAS that kid: a massive daydreamer in class, who had a lot of trouble focusing on or retaining information on anything related to book learning.
      I find the students who struggle the most are often the ones most afraid to ask for help, usually because they've been made to feel stupid for asking in the past. Students who do well in a subject might occasionally avoid asking for help, but most of the time they're confident enough in the subject that they don't feel the same alienation in asking. I also don't really blame it on teachers (besides those who make a student feel bad - that's just crummy teaching), because it's HARD trying to keep the whole class moving through the curriculum when some kids really struggle and need a lot of one-on-one attention in certain subjects. But that's why teacher's aides exist and are so invaluable, and why every class should have at least one (unfortunately they're expensive to employ).
      Anyway, back then I'd make an effort to recognise the individual interests or strengths of the students and find ways to apply that to helping them understand whatever problem they were having trouble with. It works surprisingly well, especially in maintaining interest, because it's suddenly less 'alien' to them. If I could see them struggling (usually they'd get distracted, and then start distracting others) I'd approach them first and find the question they were having problems with, then talk them through it using a demonstration, do a few together, then watch them do one or two by themselves before I left them to it. It was amazing to see how much confidence they could develop in a subject they'd always struggled with, and over a relatively short time. It was also a really rewarding experience for me - to know they wouldn't be held back for something that quite often wasn't their fault.

There was plenty of people, family, friends, around us, playing loudly. Only she and I know to this day.
    If you have the opportunity to do good, keep it to yourself, or let it out like an anonymous bottle under a starry ocean. It may help someone. Stay happy. Love

    2:12 U had some friends who shared music with me. We were a group of kinda broken people. All of us where different somehow but we accepted each other without questioning. Some of them got into my heart and I am still very thankfull that they were there for me. I had a hard time but it didn't matter there. The first time I got to do something with them I have let some people know that I was feeling really bad and one of them asked me why I am not feeling good. I told him and he just asked me to hang out with them. Nothing else. Just hanging out. No questions just acceptance. It felt so good. I am still kind of sad that we are not hanging out anymore. Some of them just go there way I guess. And I know that others of this group still hang out together but at one point I didn't went with them anymore. I am feeling way better and I know that they are still batteling there fights. I would love to hang out with them one more time. Thats one of the reasons there music means alot to me. As they showed me there music I listend to it when I felt alone or we werent togethere for a longer time. It always gave me a bit of the feeling being home or being welcome. The music itself wasn't the point of it. It felt like listening to them. Being with them. I had not this feeling for a long time when I listend to the music but they are still at my heart. I don't want ever to forget what they gave me.
    It is so important to have people where u don't need to question anything. People who just accept you and how u are and what u do. People can give u the feeling of being home and safe.

    I can absolutely relate to that one secret about being slow in learning math. I have always felt so embarrassed while asking for help, even after explaining to me, it have been so hard to understand. I was yelled at and embarrassed by my own math teacher for 3 years in grammar school and was so stressed every time we had math subject. But you know what, it doesn't matter anyway, because there is something deep inside you, some different purpose right for you that is more meaningful and will be your whole life. Even when I felt I was less valuable because of that, I don't feel the same way after I finished the school and I am doing what I am good at and I am passionate about. So you are not too. 💛

He told me to use my head because it was "easy". I shutdown and left.

    I have to share this somewhere. This is probably the biggest regret I’ve had so far in my life. Our school librarian passed away from COVID just before the new year. I’m in my school’s show choir, and we were asked if everyone that was free that day could sing at her funeral. I cried so much during the song I had to stop used my voice was so shaky and my throat closed up. I felt terrible. I felt like I had single-handedly ruined the entire song, the entire funeral just by being so sensitive, which is something I’ve always hated about myself. Before I left, I went up to the coffin and had to apologize to her for ruining the entire thing. It was like I was paying respects. I barely even knew her first name.

I truly did my best to save us all from pain and harm unto my death. I would do it again. My immortal soul is worthless if mamas and children are crying. I will bare my secrets and my sins if one soul can walk in freedom. That sounds heavy, but we make our choices and stick to them. Even when it makes us look stupid and trivial to those in power.

Her husband had a degree but was in the process of getting a higher degree (can't remember in what) but sadly passed away due to cancer.

    The masters at 5:40, I don’t think that they meant the degree.

    Imposter syndrome is not a sentence. It’s something you can definitely work on and even overcome. I am on that healing journey and the place I’m in right now is miles upon miles always from where I was back then. Healing is possible ❤️🙏🏻

    I love how every question, they all have different insights towards it.... Whether they are proud, defensive towards the victim, or just overall relatable

    I open up to strangers more than the people who know me and it's kinda more comforting.

    Do the person dealing with imposter syndrome and anyone else dealing with it - I feel ya. It’s such a common thing that people struggle with but that doesn’t make it less disabling. Just know you are not alone - even the greatest in their field suffer from it. It used to control my life too but learning that it is common and learning to identify those feelings for what they are has helped me tremendously. I hope you find the help you need too

    It's weird that this society is all about social media but everyone still have those secrets that they can't tell to anybody. Much of our culture is completely broken in that aspect, like the lack of respect for anyone, like the will to destroy the life of someone in seconds because you had a bad relationships. It's really damaging to everyone and it's spreading everywhere, like taking pictures of conversations, making sure to have a backup and shame someone, and the worst part is that this situation spreads around people, and at the end we can't even have real friends because we don't trust each other.
    My secret is that i am scared that i couldn't find a woman that doesn't treat people like objects.
