Identity Shattering

In that shattering

is a smattering

of who

we

are

In that reflecting

is a detecting

of who

to

become

In that thinking

is a sprinkling

of values

Identity Shattering

As we consider who we are, our identities in the spaces and places of the neighborhoods in our lives -- what essence is there in all of them?

What six concepts shape you as you shape them?

Challenge: Consider your beliefs. Using six words, arrange them as phrases read horizontally and vertically to express an essence of your identity.

@eatcherveggies Susan Watson

Always include laughter (it heals).

Show true leadership (it is often sorely lacking).

Model flexibility.

Approach things with openness.

Stretch your mind and your wings to get outside your comfort zone.

Do everything with humility, knowing there is always more to know and learn.

Wisdom is more than knowledge, and kindness is more both all of those.

Shattering Backstory

As the #clmooc introduced the untro for Cycle One, I was captivated by the ingenuity of the responses by participants and intrigued with the traits behind the person and the making. [ Specific examples ]

In my meandering and following Twitter links, I discovered Echoing Green, an organization that supports young graduates to “Work with a Purpose.”

At the bottom of each page was the logo at right, which inspired this “make.”

I look forward to your unshattering.
