Hi Priscilla and Hana

Even though I may not be facing discrimination as most people in my group are inmigrants and see favouritism. I can see an example like the one with the flyers happening to me.

What i have been doing is:

Realize that is a reflection of who they are

Try to identify the things I have been doing that may have contributed to the situation. I realized that I need to be more clear i  the way I express my messages for example

 

I realize that I am my own voice. I would love having the mentoring and nurturing environment that makes you feel safe. That’s  my need and I had to accept that they just can’t provide that as they are fighting their own battles

 

I repeat to myself constantly that I belong. If I want respect…i give myself respect. I want toletance. I give myself and others tolerance. I speak. I trust my ideas and I am prepared to respond back and defend my ideas when someone says no.

 

I realize that I have to trust my achievements and my skills  and be open with them with kindness ans compassion

 

I have worked in forgiving ofenses and letting go grudges.

 

All this of course has taken a looooot of work, meditation, coaching,  listening to Pema Chodron and similar teachers etc…but it has been al worth  it.
