I see you have some blogging expertise! Maybe I can get you to share with the class how you put the side bar of video clips at side. You have selected some important understandings about the key concepts with the key one for you being self worth. It is as you are pointing out very important to feel positive about who you are as that shapes and influences all the other aspects. For withto out self worth how can you have integrity,or ambition?

Reflection on Class :D

Power, Integrity, Humanity, Loyalty and Self Worth are the terms that are mentioned or touched in our short stories.
Power can be seen as strength, but also can influence change.
Integrity is having values and loyalty.
Humanity is being humane, having a sense of passion and being kind.
Loyalty is being honest and faithful.
Finally self worth is the way you look at yourself, and how you treat yourself; self respect.

And Again With The Self Worth...

Dove started the Real Beauty Campaign as a way of raising self esteem. In many of their videos they show how the media portrays images that are unrealistic.

These are some examples of those videos:

Self Worth cont..

"Far away there in the sunshine are my highest aspirations. I may not reach them, but I can look up and see their beauty, believe in them, and try to follow where they lead."

-Louisa May Alcott

"Self worth is usually based on our feelings in worth in terms of our skill, achievements and so on. When we find ourselves not measuring up to society's criteria for worth, we suffer serious consequences."
