5 Parts of Me!

5 Parts of Me!
by Najae

There are many things I like about myself. But 5 positive affirmations are the following.

First, I am creative in anything I do. Creativity comes naturally. I can be writing an essay, and I always have to add some type of creative spin to it. Freestyle and flow comes natural to me. I can come up with poetic words in seconds. I also am very creative physically. I can draw, paint, and make clothing. I love to create and make things my own. Being creative has given me an advantage to life.

A Letter to Rose

Dear Rose,

During this Pandemic, I wanted to affirm that you are a strong and independent woman. You have used this time not only for comfort, but for growth and progress for your future. I also want to affirm how caring and loving you are to your family and how you check up on them during these times. You are definitely someone to hold onto. I want you to remember that you're beautiful, strong, and immaculate. Even though life is hard right now, you have the wisdom to make it right. Lastly, you are a leader and a star, shining bright as the sun. Never forget to always love yourself because, if you don't, nobody will.

5 Things About Me

5 Things About Me
by Lisa

Ser uno mismo en estos tiempos es algo extraordinario, en un mundo demasiado ordinario” por lo general siempre nos estamos mirando los defectos, envidiando, o intentado que la sociedad nos acepte y intentando imitar a los demás.

La primer cosa que me gusta de mi persona es mi carácter. Siempre he sido una persona que cuando la vida me ha golpeado, no me he dado por vencida. Hace un tiempo cuando entre en depresion. Mi carácter fue lo que me forjaba dia con dia a seguir luchando y seguir siendo muy optimista.

How I See Me

How I See Me
by Marlow

I always like to look on the bright side. While the events of the world are enough to make one ponder their future and their place in it, I tend to be more of a go with the flow kind of person. Not to say that I do not like a good plan for the long run. Where one might say the rain depresses them or causes them not to venture outwards, I say the heavier the rain, the better.

My Affirmations

My Affirmations
by Litzi

  1. I persevere. Being identified as DACA has secured my education and created a pathway to work. I can’t get federal aid, but being valedictorian at my high school helped me get into college. Even though the decision on DACA hasn’t been made by the Supreme Court yet, I still continue my education. I continue to push through school with personal barriers, but I persevere because I know it’ll all be worth it in the end.

Positivity
by Victoria

There are many things that I like about myself and it is hard to choose only five. One thing I like about myself is how compassionate I am. I believe that if you are compassionate and treat people right, it´ll come around in the long run. Another thing I like about myself is how I'm the type of person who stays to themselves. I believe that it is good mind my own business because people will feel like they can trust you more and they feel like they can talk to you about anything. I feel like I´m pretty because people always tell me that I am. I know that I am pretty because every time I look in the mirror, I don't feel disgusted with myself. I know that I´m worth something. Another thing about me is that I'm smart. I know that I´m smart because I have accomplished things that not many have. For example, I’ve written a book. I feel like that has been a big improvement for me. Lastly, my personality because it shows how great of a person I am.

My Affirmations

My Affirmations
by Aniyah

I am going to start by first listing my affirmations and then explain as I list them. My first would have to be the ability to understand both sides of something. For example, if somebody is arguing or I am in an argument, I would most likely understand where we are both coming from before giving my response even if I don’t agree. I can most likely always understand where the other person is coming from. Another would be that I can be alone. I’m not saying that that is my go-to, but I can enjoy being alone without feeling lonely. That may not seem like a big deal, but a lot of people who I know cannot be alone.

What Needs to Happen to Make the World Fair

What Needs to Happen to Make the World Fair
by Kairon

I'm experiencing the murders and discrimination against Black people by seeing how police are still killing innocent Black people and not willing to hear what we have to say to make a change in the community. What I would like to see is the police have more Black people on the force, as well as have police men and women interact with the community they live in. When you police somewhere you don't live, you can't understand the hardships and struggles that the people or community are facing.

skimming the surface of the ocean of me.

skimming the surface of the ocean of me.
by Ayah

Ayah.
The dark, frowning moon has left as you in search of what no one will ever know or truly understand. You are here trying to understand the very contradiction you are, both hoping you will and thinking you will never be. With the sun, with the moon, with magic, with mystery.

In The Moment

In The Moment
by T’Asia

My entire life I’ve lived in the moment,

Never dwelling on the past nor the future.

I’ve taught myself to channel my emotions to where I could only live in the moment.

For years and years, I’ve struggled with life.

I’ve struggled with emotions.

I’ve struggled with pain.

I never would have thought of myself living in the moment back then.

Brag About Me

Brag About Me
by Jailah

Me...Jailah. I am a lot of things. I am outspoken. I never hold my words back. People need to know that my opinion matters and that I need to be heard. Nobody can silence me. I am a go-getter. If I want it, I have no problem with going to get it to make myself happy. I am outgoing. I love playing. I like being the center of attention sometimes, making everyone else smile. I am bossy sometimes, but only when I feel that things can be better than what is presented to me. If I want it how I want it, you have to set the tone and that's how things go with me. I am the Class Of 2020. I've worked hard to get here, and I've been through a lot. A lot has tried to break me down and make me quit, but I've kept pushing and pushing until I reached my goal. That goal was to graduate and make myself and the ones who support me happy.
