“Learning requires exploration of one’s identity.”

During this circle talk, I learned that I have different traits from my ancestors that they have passed down to me, which I would have never known if I hadn’t explored my ancestry and shared my history and prior experiences.  I also learned that others’ ancestors have passed down their traits, much like I have. Exploring my identity also led to me discovering more about how I see myself, and I was able to appreciate my abilities and my strengths. I was also able to learn about myself and find out more about who I am as a person.
